Product Information

If a vibrant, hot pink blush is what you’re looking for, this is undoubtedly the one for you. At first, I was super intimidated by the level of pigmentation, fearing that it would be too overwhelming on my light skin tone. But, I was wrong—a subtle tap of the creamy formula blended across my cheeks instantly awakens my complexion while remaining pretty wearable. I also love that because the color is rich and the pigmentation is stellar, most if not all skin tones could get great use out of this blush.

If you’re in the market for a bright pink blush that will leave your skin ultra-radiant, I can’t recommend this one enough. Another day, you might want to go big on the eyes, using some kind of rainbow eyeshadow palette, and tone down the blush.

The shade of this hot pink blush is absolutely beautiful, and while I found the formula easy to apply, I was disappointed that it only lasted on my cheeks for around two hours before completely fading away.

The vibrant color of this blush is was initially drew me in, but the performance is what's completely blown me away. If you like matte powder blushes but you find that they can lean dry or chalky on the skin, I urge you to give this one a try.

Although it's a true powder formula which is excellent for those with oily skin, the creaminess in the texture makes it really blendable and flattering on dry skin, too. It provides a natural finish, blends almost effortlessly, and is extremely long-wearing. I saw absolutely no color fading after wearing it for more than eight hours.

It has the ideal level of pigmentation, meaning that you don’t need to work hard to build up the color, but you also don’t have to worry about being super careful not to apply too much.I also love that contrary to a lot of super pigmented products that are really opaque, this one maintains rich pigmentation while somehow being a bit translucent. This allows your skin to show through a bit which makes the finish look really authentic and glowy. If you struggle to find dewy cream blushes that actually last on you, this one is absolutely worth giving a go.

I can see it being a challenging product for blush beginners to work with, but with a little bit of practice, I think it’s totally worth it.

Tilbury Tip: For the perfect blush and glow look, layer your Pillow Talk Matte Beauty Blush Wand in Peach Pop with any of Charlotte’s Beauty Light Wand blush shades: Pillow Talk, Pillow Talk 2. Medium, Pinkgasm or Peachgasm. For a healthy, radiant glow no matter what time of the year it is, the best cream blushes are your best bet. Unlike most powders, these buttery formulas impart an unmistakable, radiant sheen to your skin that mimics the effects of, say, an hour-long jog on the beach or a luxurious facial. Because these particular blushes generally contain oils, they're comparatively more moisturizing than powder blushes (take note, dry skin types) and won't disturb dry spots or highlight textured areas of the skin. It’s important, as one day, you might want to go extra nude on the eyes and lips, but let a highlighting blush to all the talking.If you keep up with popular beauty products, then chances are I don’t need to introduce this best-selling, viral blush from Dior. The brand markets it as a customizable blush that reacts to the skin’s moisture level to create a flattering rosy flush. While I can’t confirm or deny that technology, I can say that it’s a beautiful baby pink blush. Though incredibly fair in the pan, it does have nice color payoff—it works to create a romantic rosy color on my skin, and I do have friends with medium skin tones that adore this color, too. Given the nature of the color, the powder formula, and the level of pigmentation, I can’t see it doing much for people with deep and dark skin tones, which is unfortunate. I would love to see the brand come out with an intensified version to suit more complexions. But if your skin is anywhere from fair to medium, I think you’ll really love the color. I’ve loved these duos since their initial release, so I was thrilled when the brand came out with this bright bubblegum colorway. This shade is fun and ideal for blush-forward makeup looks, and I love the versatility that the duo provides. You can use the powder or the cream alone, or layer them together to get a natural finish that wears well all day long. Often powders and creams don’t layer well together, but these absolutely do, which makes using the product easy. I appreciate that the cream formula isn’t overly emollient or too dry, which helps to create a naturally luminous finish on the skin. While I do find the powder to be a bit chalky, which hinders the blendability a bit, somehow it still looks really nice when blended onto the skin and especially when layered with the cream side. Tilbury Tip: Add gorgeous glow to your blush look using Charlotte’s Beauty Light Wands in Pillow Talk, Pinkgasm or Peachgasm. For a while, I found powder blushes to be boring—a flat, matte wash of color on the cheeks wasn’t adding any excitement to my makeup routine. But then I discovered this blush formula last year and I fell madly in love with it, and ultimately rediscovered my appreciation for a good powder blush. It features the best parts of a powder and a cream—it’s easy to apply just like a powder, and it provides a glow to the skin just like a cream. In the pan, the baked formula appears incredibly shimmery, but once you apply it on the skin, it looks radiant and incredibly flattering. It’s quite pigmented, making it versatile among a wide range of skin tones, and I love that this particular rosy shade has a nice balance of warm and cool undertones which makes it pair well with any makeup look. Makeup artist Carissa Ferreri previously told Allure that she recommends using a cream blush (or gel) formula in rosy tones. "Focus the blush a bit higher on the cheeks, like right under the eyes, and then diffuse any harsh lines," she explained. Makeup artist Joseph Carrillo also suggests "smiling and applying the color in the center of the apples" before gently fading the edges.
