The blush I believe is the most indispensable part of a make up regimen. If I'm in a rush and I don't have the luxury of time to do my face, the first thing I'd grab is a blush.. be it a cheek tint, powder blush, whatever it is I can hold onto. There was even a time when I used my red lipstick to put color on my cheeks. I was about to go down from my car when I realized that my face was like a blank canvass and I was really running late. The blush in my kit was a shimmery pink and I thought it wouldn't look good if I put it on.... alone (since I don't have time of going through "the works"). So I had this bright idea of using my red lipstick to put a tinge of color to my pale face and a dab on the lips....Voila!! It instantly gave me that just-pinched healthy look ^_^. I know, I know it's not good for the skin... but it's just for emergency, You know, break- glass- in -case-of fire sort of thing. Haha!
Passing by Beauty Bar at Trinoma I caught a glimpse of this poster of a girl looking so dewy and fresh sporting a cheek blush au naturale'...if you know what I mean. I wonder how many make up-loving women like me drooled over those cheeks! I lost no time and asked the SA, who by the was very accommodating. As if she read my mind, she handed me a tester of
Sue Devitt Gel -to-Powder-Blush and its LOVE....... and the rest so they say is history.

- color pay off is good
- comes in a chic and small compact with mirror

velvety smooth...
Cons:
- quite pricey at 1,250PhP a pop
- color has tendency to dissipate if you over blend it , a few tap and a little blending and you're good to go
- if you're into matte blush then this is not for you (love it tho'!)
:
nice....
Will I repurchase? why not? maybe a different shade next time :)
Rate: 4.5/5
(akkkk.... foundation shade doesn't match!.. hehe)
I apply this with my bare clean fingers or you can use stippling brush but using a brush or any applicator may just cause the color to dissipate more..it's already light and satiny to begin with.
If you're looking for a warm and natural glow on your cheeks specially for summer then you should give this a shot! *wink*
