this blush got me confused
ColourRose is known for its aesthetics but…
☁️ first impressions
the pigmentation? It looked nothing like the ads, and the highlight vanishes after just a few swatch 😭
☁️ thoughts
However I was floored by how muted/ clean it looked on skin after I applied it on. The color settles into this mid-toned dusty peach, (i still dont know the purpose of the highlights; ) - which is why some people just keep it for its aesthetic
Pros:
- it builds up nicely— great as a blush / eyeshadow
- affordable price point - $5
Cons:
- the sheen isnt as prominent
- ~3 hr wear time

From my experience with ColourRose's blush, the initial shimmer shown in ads really fades quickly after application, which can be disappointing if you expect a glowing highlight throughout the day. However, its matte, dusty peach finish can be quite flattering and natural-looking, especially if you prefer subtle makeup looks. One tip I discovered is to layer the blush gradually for better build-up, which makes it versatile enough to double as an eyeshadow. The price point at around $5 is definitely a bonus for anyone wanting a budget-friendly option to experiment with colors. Do keep in mind though, the wear time is limited to approximately three hours before you might need a touch-up. For those with oily skin or who want long-lasting makeup, this might be a downside. Also, the gold highlights seem more for visual appeal in the packaging rather than lasting effect on the skin, so managing expectations is key. Overall, if you're drawn to the aesthetic of ColourRose products and enjoy a soft dusty peach blush for everyday use, this could be a nice addition to your makeup collection, especially if you prefer a natural, muted look over vibrant pigment.
