Clarins Blush Prodige Illuminating Cheek Colour 05 Rose Wood-Review, Photos, Swatches


Clarins Blush Prodige Illuminating Cheek Colour 05 Rose Wood
Company/Brand Claim: A silky, lightweight powder blush containing the perfect combination of mineral and plant extracts. Adds colour and luminosity to cheeks for an instant, healthy-looking glow. The stunning mosaic palette houses different shades and finishes, enabling you to illuminate your complexion and enhance its natural radiance and beauty.

Result: This review is also a first impression kind of post because this is my first shot at Clarins beauty. To start, I just love the packaging. The dull gold square case, comes in a deep red velvet pouch and looks so elegant. Since it has a built in mirror I'm going to use it as a makeup mirror even after the product runs out. The blush is placed in rectangles in duo shades which are a warm rose, with one shade containing slight glitter and the other one being completely matte. The glitter doesn't show up much when applied and this shade has a slight peach undertone to it. The other one is a rosy mauve. The texture is amazing as they apply smoothly and blend well without any fuss. The blush is nicely pressed and doesn't powder upon picking. The colors are pigmented enough to show on every skin tone. The brush that comes along is quite useful actually. It has very soft bristles and applies the product evenly. I don't have to reach for any other brush. It stays on for 4-5 hours, which is good enough. Overall, it gives a warm glow to the skin and can be worn on any occasion, anywhere and everyday.


Cons: Expensive


Clarins Blush Prodige Illuminating Cheek Colour comes in 6 shades and each case contains 7.5 grams of the product.


Rating: 4.5/5
