My thought

I have never been a coral lover so when i get to try something coral i don't expect it to work for me sometimes it does sometimes not, in this Cha Cha Tint case i was actually hoping for it to work for me but i was little disappointed because i think tints are not for me no matter how pretty they are they will never work for me.i always find them tricky

 

This is a mango colored tint, comes in a plastic bottle and contains 2.5ml of the product.This is mini version of the original so the bottle is very tiny.The original one comes in a 14.5ml bottle.the applicator is similar to nail polish applicator .It has a creamy semi thick consistency, not runny at all.the application is bit tricky i need to blend it quickly after applying can't wait, even for a second or else i get a splotchy application because it leaves a stain where i applied it so be careful and do one cheek at a time.If i apply it with my finger,i end up getting more stain on my finger than the face and its difficult to remove.i would recommend not applying the stain directly on our cheeks to avoid the stain patches, use a makeup sponge or fingers and do remember to rinse fingers immediately after applying.

After this much struggle with the application i have to admit i get a pretty coral flush on my cheeks and gives a fresh look.the staying power is something i won't complain about because it stays put for 7 to 8 hours on me without a budge.the size is travel friendly but this can not be a on-the-go product because you will always need to be careful with the application, no hurry and no with out mirror touch ups.

 

And now about the lips, it emphasise the dryness and cracks on the lips and application is uneven, my upper lip always gets less stained no matter how much i apply i don't know why may be its because of my lip tone.it stays put maximum 3 to 4 hours on me which is not bad.

 

so this is my experience with this tint after which i won't be considering buying the full sized bottle as i first thought, because its not worth spending so much money ( i think so).this little bottle is enough for me.

 

 

i will rate it 3/5

 

 

Pros

• Pretty coral color
• Looks good after application
• Long lasting

 

 

Cons

• Tricky application
• Not a on-the-go product
• Emphasise dryness on lips
• Pricey

 

Price         14.5ml  $30,   2.5ml   $7 (price varies as different online sellers sell the deluxe mini on different prices)

 

You can get it online from Benefit Cosmetics website or from facebook stores Wishlist or beautyunleashed

Product Description

 

Prepare to get seriously addicted!

Made with multi-toned pigments and light-reflecting shimmer, nothing brings a dull complexion to life like a sweep of Luscious Blush. It imparts a soft healthy glow to your face and blends like a dream.

Our blushes can be worn in a single shade for a hint of color or layered with another shade to create seductive depth

My Thought

i really adore this blush, its creamy in texture,highly pigmented and blends like a dream.the color is soft peachy pink with a Golden sheen to it.it gives a perfect healthy glow to the face and provides a quality you expect from a high end brand blush.



Luscious Blush In Champagne - Swatched

i was really surprised by the color pay off and quality of the blush.the shimmer particles in it are really unnoticeable and when i apply this blush the pale gold sheen really makes my face look lively.its a best choice for night time parties and weddings.

i have also compared this blush with benefit belle bamba and its is no less than it in any way.its quite similar to bella bamba,both are pink blushes with golden sheen while Belle Bamba leans more towards pink, luscious champagne is more peachy.



Luscious Blush In Champagne & Benefit Belle Bamba



Left: Luscious Blush In Champagne
Right: Benefit Bella Bamba

as u can see the shimmer particles in the Bella Bamba are noticeable while in Luscious champagne the sheen is there but you can not notice the shimmer particles.as far as the color pay off and texture matters Luscious champagne gives quite a tough cometetion to the Bella Bamba.

i don't own Nars Orgasm but after seeing the swatches and reviews on Internet i think Luscious Champagne could be a dupe

the things i don't like about this blush is that the surface of the blush gets a little hard after some time and packaging could have been better.

Pros

• Multi-toned blush
• Richly Pigmented & Easily blenable
• Soft texture
• Gives healthy glow to the face
• Good color payoff
• Budget Friendly

Cons

• Packaging could have been better
• Surface of the Blush gets hard

i would give it 4.5/5

Price       PKR 475

You Can Find it at Alfateh Lahore or can order from Luscious Website www.iloveluscious.com 


have you tried it? it's definately a steal for the price :)
