I was lucky to have been able to try this cheap blush duo on my cheeks. Sebastian Trucco's Blush Creme Duo in Desert Rose offers a pink blusher and a pretty highlighter.
From Sebastian Trucco:
What I love about it:
- gives me a healthy flush on my cheeks; lovely color!
- 'newbie-to-blushes'-friendly in terms of application/blending
- the creamy blush glides perfectly and miraculously becomes powdery to suit my oily cheeks
- cheap! I got it for 400+ php
- the palette has a HUGE mirror!
- if you over apply the blush (a slim chance), the highlighter works great in toning it down
Uh-ohs:
- I have no use for the highlighter since it'll just emphasize my acne scars
- packaging looks like a coffin
- poor staying power on my oily, oily, oily cheeks
- locally unavailable; but there are a few who sell over ebay.ph
Here are the swatches (click pix to enlarge):
I'm still thinking if I'd purchase again after using it all up. I'm a little bit reluctant since I'm a cheek tint gal.
To anyone using NARS blushes: can this Trucco product be a shade dupe of any NARS blush at all? I was just wondering...
