Essence - Blushes I Own


Essence Blushes I Own

Update: Sorry I know I said I would be back to regularly posting daily last week, but I did not anticipate that I would get a severe neck pain last Tuesday. It prevented me being able to take photos and sit at my computer. It hurt so bad to move it. I still have a tiny bit of pain left but its way better. It’s better enough today so I took a bunch of photos for the upcoming posts I have planned for this week. Not sure what I did to have caused it. It wasn’t a crick in the neck either, it was something else entirely. But anyways, back to what you’re actually here for.
So today I wanted to talk about the Essence blushes I own. I have 3 currently. These don’t get talked about much which makes me want to talk about them. I own 2 of the Silky Touch Blushes, and 1 Satin touch blush.





Swatches left to right - Satin Touch -Satin Coral (10), Silky Touch -babydoll (20), adorable (10)

These are so natural looking on the skin. Like you have a natural flush on your cheeks. I love that this come off sheer but you can build up the color to how intense you want it. I will say that the silky touch blushes are chalky and powdery. But these apply really well on to the skin, and it actually looks good on my skin. So that doesn’t bother me. The satin touch blush isn’t powdery at all and feels really nice when you swatch it. As shown in the pictures, I did go over my swatches a few times so you can see what the colors are. Like I said these are a buildable blush formula, which I like.
These are not patchy when applying to the skin, and they last on me all day (probably a good 8 hours or so). The silky touch blushes are matte finish, and the satin touch blush is a satin finish. But really it doesn’t look like satin to me. It looks more like a satin/matte finish to me. The silky touch blush in the shade “adorable” (10) is a beautiful light baby doll pink that is so flattering on the skin. The next one is called “babydoll” (20) is a darker shade of pink with a hint of mauve, maybe berry in it. Which gives you a nice rosy flush to your cheeks. The Satin touch blush I have is called “Satin Coral” (10) which is a soft coral shade. This looks beautiful on the skin. I picked this up a few months ago because KathleenLights raves about it. She was right to! I love it! These are so incredibly inexpensive! So affordable! I want to get more! They also have an incredible highlighter I love too, but I will talk about that one in an upcoming post this week. Here are some links to where you can get your hands on these!
