Model's Flush

Hi guys, today I have a blush-y post for you all! I was very excited when I saw the Model's Prefer Beauty to Go kits at Priceline. They are excellent value for money and just super cute little kits! I picked up the blush one which was only $4 (at the time I bought it, I think they go for $5 regularly, awesome price though!). So, on to the review!

The set contains a powder and cream blush, both in a very pretty, wearable shade. The compact blush is in the shade Desk to Date which is a permanent shade, however I feel that the actual blushes are different. The full size one is a lot more glittery/shimmery so if you already own Desk to Date, they are actually a bit different. The cream blush is in the shade Tickled Pink.

The packaging on these is super cute! Both plastic containers, the powder compact is very reminiscent of NYX powder blush packaging. It contains a good 4g of product which is a pretty standard amount. The cream blush is packaged in a tube in a stick form, easily wound up and it closes very securely. This one contains 6.2g.

Colour-wise, they are both very pretty peachy-pinks. Desk to Date is pigmented (but not overly so), smooth, blendable and just has a really nice formula in general! It has a bit of gold shimmer but overall it gives off more of a satin finish and the shimmer is hardly detectable. It has a pretty good lasting power too!

Tickled Pink is slightly more metallic with a stronger golden sheen. This is a great colour for a blush-highlighter hybrid applied to the cheekbones. In terms of its formula, it is really nice! I haven't tried too many cream blushes but this is one is quite good. It is creamy, but a little bit stiff to apply straight to the cheeks. I prefer using my fingers to apply it to the face or a stippling brush. It is not sticky but still dewy, is not a cream-to-powder formula. I find you can also wear this on the lips but the metallic finish is a bit frosty on my skintone. I think this would be really great for popping in your bag and touching up! I didn't find this to be particularly long wearing though, okay as far as cream blushes go (hey that rhymed!).

This was my first experience with Model's Prefer and I really enjoy these products! I really like the look of the Beauty Addict blush (a super pretty berry-purple with golden shimmer). The full size blushes contain 6g of product for $10, so you are getting a really good deal with this kit! They have a bunch of the Beauty to Go's with nail polish, lipsticks, etc. These are both great daily blushes and I'm sure I'll get heaps of use out of them (peachy-pinks are my weakness!).
