I never was a blush person. I can go on with my makeup routines without using blush at all which is why my blush collection is far less than my lipsticks/lip tints/lip stains collection.
This is the first time I tried cream type of blush, courtesy of Shu Uemura, so if you're curious on my opinion about this cream blush, read the full review below!
Name: Brave Beauty - Satin Radiant Stick
Vision of Beauty Collection vol. 1
Shade: Orange Coral
Brand: Shu Uemura
Origin: Japan
Content: 10 gr
Usage span: 24 months
Usage span: 24 months
Price: USD 39
Ingredients:
Highlight and cheek color stick that offers a satin-like radiant color and it is suitable to emphasize face structure.
To use: apply appropriate amount on the cheeks after applying foundation then blend lightly using fingertips or blender sponge.
Shu Uemura's Brave Beauty - Satin Radiant Stick has cylindrical tube packaging with twist-up body. You can simply get the product up by twisting the body part of the cylindrical tube. It's pretty lightweight, probably because the tube is made of plastic, yet sturdy so it can be your best friend while travelling.
The shade name Orange Coral doesn't quite fit this Shu Uemura's Brave Beauty - Satin Radiant Stick in my personal opinion. The color is more to orange rather than coral. It's very sheer, which I didn't expect. I kinda expected that cream blush would has more vibrant color rather than powder blush. Just as I said above, I'm not much a blush person so I like to keep my blush as natural as possible and this Shu Uemura's Brave Beauty - Satin Radiant Stick is like the answer. Its sheer color doesn't make my blush stands out but rather gives off that subtle radiance to my cheeks.
On the video above, you can see that the application of Shu Uemura's Brave Beauty - Satin Radiant Stick is pretty easy. It blends easily also finished off natural enough on my cheeks. For a cream product in a stick form, Shu Uemura's Brave Beauty - Satin Radiant Stick can't be considered heavy on the skin. It's pretty lightweight which I need the most in a product.
Quite pricey
Doesn't have much shade choices

Deletei think it's pricey, ya.
ReplyDeleteIf i want a sheer coverage just play with tiny amount. Hehehe
oia, forget mention, because i have oily skin, i prefer powder one :))
well my skin is quite dry especially on the winter so ... hehe
Deleteyeah, it's pricey as i mentioned but i think the quality is worth it. i know we can play with tiny amount but sometimes the finish look is not quite natural while with this blush, it looks like healthy-glowing-blush ^^
