ColourPop Flamingo Pressed Powder Blush Review & Swatches

Flamingo

ColourPop Flamingo Pressed Powder Blush ($10.00 for 0.28 oz.) is a light, bubblegum pink with strong, cool blue undertones and a matte finish. It didn’t swatch as smoothly on my arm (which is something I’ve experienced with this formula, generally) but applied well on my cheeks.

Medium, buildable coverage (as marketed)
Finely-milled, somewhat powdery
Picked up evenly with a brush and blended out well on cheeks
Long-wearing (8 hours before fading noticeably)

Formula Overview

$10.00/0.28 oz. - $35.71 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to go on "smoothly" and have a "natural and healthy flush" that has "long wear" and "can be layered to your desired intensity." It is a lightly to moderately powdery powder blush with semi-sheer to semi-opaque, buildable color payoff. The consistency has a drier, thinner feel and though it feels silky to the touch, I found it the type of powder blush can be tricky to blend out evenly on the skin, depending on one's skin type or base preferences. The drier the skin/base, the better the formula would blend, but any natural oils or slip caused the blush to go on unevenly and was difficult to blend out. The wear was between seven and eight hours on me on average.
