Birchbox Breakdown

There are a few occasions in life when we blush naturally, like when we run into an old crush or make eye contact with a handsome stranger. Since those events happen rarely, we like to fake it with this flirtatious blush. The ultra-fine powder blends seamlessly into your skin, while the dusty rose hue gives it a natural flush. Plus, it comes in an adorable compact with a built-in mirror and can double as lovely eye shadow.

How it Works

While many blushes contain undesirable ingredients like synthetic colors and parabens, theBalm®’s blushes are thoughtfully formulated to respect your skin. The satiny powder goes on evenly, leaving a uniform flush. Light-reflecting silica particles minimize blemishes and other imperfections.

How to Use

Grab your favorite blush brush and pick up a small amount of blush. Tap to get rid of any excess. Smile, and blend into the apples of your cheeks. Since the formula is ultra-pigmented, you only need to use a little to achieve a rosy flush. You can also use your fingertips or a shadow brush to sweep the powder onto your lids.

Perfect summertime shade!

I received this shade in a previous Birch Box and I've recently started using it as the weather has gotten warmer. It's a beautiful bronzy rose and it's great for summertime. It looks equally lovely on tanned skin as it does on pale. The only downside for me is that there is a slight shimmer, which isn't my preference.

Great blush!

This blush is very pigmented with extremely true-to-pan color. A light touch goes a LONG way! I think it could be used on a variety of skin tones, from very pale if you don't use much to much deeper skin tones. There is a faint shimmer but nothing too major and it doesn't emphasize pores. It also lasts all day. I would definitely recommend this blush.

I love it!

This is my favorite blush ever! It make your cheeks happy and lights your face up. Also love the box with the cabanaBoy on it. How cute is that?!

Gorgeous blush

This blush is VERY pigmented. The color was a little darker than I imagined. A little goes a long way. I'm glad there isn't much glitter or sparkle in this blush. I can wear this product every day!

Perfect 2-in-1!

I love this blush/shadow. The 2-in-1 feature is obviously the best selling point, but the color is perfect. I was concerned that the color would be too shiny for a blush or too pink for a shadow, but it works well as both. I love the ease of this. I travel a lot and it is perfect for my purse and make-up bag to eliminate one extra piece of makeup.

TheBalm does it again!

I got the Hot Mama blush sample in one of my boxes, and that one was sold out. This color is VERY similar, and mixed with Mary Lou Manizer it's practically the same thing! Thank you Birchbox for introducing me to TheBalm. Their formula is so amazing, it stays all day, blends SO well, and is so pigmented it'll last you so long!

Good

I think this is a really nice product to use for special events and I feel like the description totally fits it because this blush is very flirty and useful. As well as the packaging is very well done and the fact that it could be both shadow and blush, shows that it is a very nice multitasking product for your makeup collection.
