REVIEW: Essence METAL GLAM BLUSH 01 GLAM-ME

Essence METAL GLAM BLUSH in 01 GLAM -ME is part of my WEEKLY REVIEW

This blush was a part of the METAL GLAM display from ESSENCE COSMETICS and is APPROXIMATELY $3.25 CAD

**I realize I SHOULD NOT have done a review on this product as this the METAL GLAM display is no longer available at the MAJORITY of the Shopper's Drug Marts(I was just lucky enough to find displays that were still up at SOME Shopper's Drug Marts)**

L: The product RIGHT OUT OF THE TUBER: The product BLENDED OUT, HAS a HIGH SHEEN and CONTAINS FINE SHIMMER
PROS:
  • VERY pigmented
  • The FORMULA is VERY CREAMY and ESAY to BLEND
  • You can BUILD UP the product to your liking
  • Although there is SHIMMER in the product it is VER FINE
CONS:
  • MUST BLEND FAST, Once it dries it is harder to blend.
OVERALL: I WOULD RECOMMEND this product to anyone who likes a blush with a SHEEN and SHIMMER. You only need a TINY bit of the product EACH TIME and for under $5 CAD you can't beat it!

REVIEW: Essence BEAUTY BEATS blush- 01 Groupie at Heart

This REVIEW is part of my WEEKLY review

ESSENCE "BEAUTY BEATS" blush 01- Groupie at Heart was part of the Justine Bieber collaboration with ESSENCE COSMETICS and is the ONLY BLUSH in the collection
( $4.25 CAD)



L) The blush swatched TWICE NOT blended out
R) The blush swatched TWICE BLENDED OUT

1)Blush swatched TWICE      2) Blush swatched ONCE







PROS:
  • Pigmented
  • The colour can be built up- to personal preference 
  • Great staying power (I wore the blush for about 6 hours- MINIMAL fading)
CONS:

  • CAN be POWDERY IF you DO NOT blend it properly 

OVERALL: ** I HAVE TO APOLOGIZE- I SHOULD NOT HAVE done this review NOW...as I realize this is probably NO LONGER available as it was a special collection**
I WOULD RECOMMEND this product. The price is VERY reasonable and you get A LOT of product. The blush HAS A SHEEN (personally I do not mind), and is very pigmented, so you HAVE TO BLEND out well. If you can still get your hands on it it's WORTH A TRY!!!
