Covergirl & Olay sculpting blush in 210 rich cinnamon

I've been lemming for this very product for such a long time and i was just too happy when i discovered that Chedelyn from facebook is selling this. I also had the 220 Royal Plum but i gave it to my friend because i find it very similar to rich cinnamon except the royal plum has like a rosy undertones while the rich cinnamon has peachy undertones. i wanted this blush coz i've seen a lot of great reviews about this. But i just realized something.. what works for them might not for me especially since i live in a very humid country and my skin gets oily usually so i think what i should be considering are the reviews of those who also lives in a humid country.

this is okay as a base of my powder blush on or if you have a porcelain flawless skin that you don't have to put powder over or under it. I tried putting it without powder on and in my case it doesn't stay on for long since i'm oily it only stays on my cheeks for an hour. i just use my fingers in applying this cream blush. Then i tried patting it on top of my bb cream and i find it hard to blend and when i try blending it, my bb cream gets rubbed off so this is actually a pain in the ass so what i do not is pat it using my fingers on my cheeks without any powder or bb cream on my face then i apply my bb cream then id apply my powder brush over it. its not a great help i just don't want to waste it. and its not pigmented so you may have to put a lot to build decent amount of color. i don't know maybe it's just me let me know if you have any suggestions. =)

 I love the packaging. it comes with a mirror and it's tiny and cute that will fit even in your jeans pocket without being uncomfortable. But somehow i don't find them pigmented. Its gold flecks and shimmers are very intense which is awesome because it adds vibrancy especially in the pictures or say when you are out with your friends to go clubbin'. But i don't think this will work to someone with large pores because the shimmers will only enhance visible pores. Peach Girl is a peachy pink color with gold flecks in it. i wear this night and day. Pink Wink is a light pink blush with shimmers. i actually use this to highlight my cheekbones because its very shimmery that its pink color has somewhat became just an undertone to the shimmers. i like them but i don't love them. I'm not a blush person actually because i haven't found my HG yet.

SMASHBOX O-Glow Blush

i bought this product because i thought its cool.. i liked the idea that it will provide me my perfect shade of blush. but gosh this is a waste of money. it didn't work on me! the texture is weird.. almost like a greasy feel as i tried to work it on my cheeks. the pigmentation is awful that there were much more pigment on my fingertips than on my cheeks. i tried to build up its color by layering it but it only left me an oily face without the effect of natural flush as promised. My tube is almost empty due to several but failed trials. don't get me wrong.. I've seen a lot of reviews of this product and many of them loved it. i guess this is just not for me.

see how the gel gradually turns into pink..

yes it works well on my hands but not on my cheeks.. *sigh*
