Revlon Photo Ready Cream Blush (# 300 Coral Reef)

I picked this cream blush up yesterday while out of town. I was shopping around and came across a makeup warehouse fully stocked with Revlon, Almay and Covergirl at discounted prices (this being $5 dollars!!!) There were several other brands but Revlon had the largest assortment of products, colors and shades to choose from. I have been eyeing these cream blushes for some time now but have only seen them available at Shoppers. I have only ever tried powder blushes so this was a nice change for me.

I really love the packaging of this Photoready blush, it comes in a plastic jar with a screw on cap. The jar is clear so you can easily see the shade when your purchasing. The colors look very bright and intimidating in the plastic pot however when applied to the skin it becomes much more wearable. The great thing about this blush is you can apply once for a more subtle pop of color, or you can build it up for a more vibrant look. 

The formula is very creamy and easy to apply, with one swipe your left with a good amount of product on your finger. The blush transfers well on your finger so there is no need to apply pressure/ dig into the pot. Once you apply to your cheeks you can easily blend out to get your desired look. It's great to work with because if you find you applied too much you can simply rub/ blend a tad more as it sheers out very nicely.it's not like the blush sets or needs to be worked with quickly.

Quick Recap

-Pigmentation is awesome (can easily be toned down, however is also very buildable for those who want the extra color)

- Packaging is a plus; looks very sleek 

-The wear time is pretty good, eventually it does fade so if your looking for a long lasting blush that lasts the whole day this might fall short for you

-Feels smooth, light & natural; does not feel heavy, you don't need a lot of blush to get color, and it gives a natural flush to the skin

- good amount of product in the jar (will probably last me a long time)

- I think the drug store price scares me a little..it's a bit on the higher end for a drugstore blush ($10 +..I think I saw it for $12 or so at Shoppers, I have yet to see them at Wal-Mart)

Overall: I am really pleased with this blush, and would not hesitate to purchase another shade. Although it was a bit awkward for me to apply  at first because I'm so used to of powder blushes I did really like it. Everything from the packaging, to the product appeals to me and honestly $5 where can you go wrong haha?!

Have you tried the Photoready blushes? What do you think? If not what color appeals to you most?
