Catrice Defining Blushes
četrtek, december 04, 2014.jpg)
You may know that Catrice's Defining Blushes are my favourite ever blushes. They are excellent for the price and boast with a lovely formula, good pigmentation and, most importantly, staying power. My favourite shade is Rose Royce, which is a gorgeous natural rosey colour, while the other, Think Pink, is an adorable and highly pigmented warm cute pink. Since Catrice finally added several new shades to the range, two joined my collection - Pink feat. Coral and Mandy-rine.
Shades in the first picture are as follows: 020 Rose Royce, 025 Pink feat. Coral, 040 Think Pink and 090 Mandy-rine.

Pink feat. Coral

Pink feat. Coral is a light-medium warm pink shade. There is a lot less coral in it than you'd expect from the name, in fact, it's much closer a baby doll pink colour and has little in common with, for example, Benefit's Coralista. It's a very cute colour on my cheeks, giving that I-just-came-from-the-cold flush, but without the cool undertones, so it doesn't pop as much as for example Makeup Revolution Vivid Blush Lacquer in O'Boy. The finish is matte. As all Catrice blushes it's pigmented, blends well on the cheeks and last forever on me. A more muted and slightly more coral version among Catrice blushes would be 020 Coral Me Maybe from the Illuminating Blushes range.

090 Mandy-rine

Mandy-rine is, as the name suggests, a toned down orange or a apricot shade. If I really go to town with it, it does look orange on my skin, like a fluorescent orange no less, so just to be on a save side, a light hand is advised at this shade if you're pale (I imagine it should work great on warm medium skin tones). Applied lightly it works nice, giving a natural-peachy flush, but still I would pair this with nude, red or orange based lipsticks as it will clash with pinks. The finish is matte and the formula akin to the rest of the range.

These cost 3.79 € in drugstores.
Which is your favourite? Have a great day!

Sem ga prvič dobila na dogodku E&C in mi je res všeč, čeprav mi tudi od Essence za takšno ceno kot jo imajo niso slabi :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiEssence je meni bolj hit & miss kar se pigmentacije tiče, ampak nekateri odtenki so res dobri :)
IzbrišiMeni so ti blusherji tudi zakon :) Imam think pink in ga res pogosto uporabljam :D
OdgovoriIzbrišiThink Pink sem uporabljala praktično vsak dan dokler nisem kupila Rose Royce :)
IzbrišiMeni imajo zelo fin dizajn, tak enostaven ampak tudi lep ;) Pa tudi pigmentacija mi je všeč!
OdgovoriIzbrišiEmbalaža me zelo spominja na Shu Uemura blushe - enostavna in praktična, ker takoj vidi barvo blusha :)
IzbrišiYou look fabulous :) :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiand as I always said, great pictures.. Wish these launch in India

These are so lovely! I wish they sold them in the US. It's hard to find nice, pigmented, non chalky blushes in the drug stores.

Nisem preizkusila še nobenega rdečila od Catrice, mi pa Rose Royce izgleda ful lep in bom ga preverila naslednjič v dm-u :)

I like the first two best.
OdgovoriIzbrišiova dva roza su mi favoriti
OdgovoriIzbrišiAli imajo tvoji kakšen vonj? Jaz sem kupila enega, ki je imel že direkt iz trgovine malo vonja "po stari kozmetiki" ?
OdgovoriIzbrišiNova dva ne, stara pa že imata ta vonj, ampak je zaznaven samo od blizu.
IzbrišiI am planning to try out a new blush and after reading your post I am considering the Catrice one. :)

Rose Royce is my favorite shade out of all four I think :-)
OdgovoriIzbrišiImam strogo prepoved kupovanja blusherjev, ker jih imam po mojem mnenju že čisto preveč, ampak teli Catrice me zmeraaaj mikajo, sploh ko preberem tako fajn ocene o njih.
OdgovoriIzbrišiJaz čisto preveč zanemarjam vse moje blushe odkar sem kupila te od Catrice. Praktično samo njihove nosim :)
