My Take on This Product:
Since the day I saw swatches of this blush at Prachi’s blog, I have wanted to grab this for me at the earliest. Chambor blushes come in very sophisticated navy blue box with a mirror and a blusher brush provided inside of it. The patented signature of Chambor is embossed on the top of the box. A plastic sheath is provided to protect the blusher. The brush provided with it is not scratchy but very small for blusher application, I would rather use that for applying eye shadows on my eye lid.
ARTIFICIAL LIGHT:
The particular shade ‘Star Candy’ is one of the most unique shades I have ever seen from any brand. Its an earthy pink shade with golden highlighter distributed all over it in patches. I was amazed to see this beauty. Its texture indeed is very soft and smooth. You can say its little of both powder and cream blush. Though its soft, whenever I swipe my brush across it, there is simply no wastage of product. One swipe of the blusher brush picks enough product for my cheek imparting a healthy luminous glow.
NATURAL LIGHT:
This blush won’t show up on very wheatish to dark skin tones. As a blusher it will show up on fair skin tones nicely, on my wheatish skin it shows up as a very pretty highlighter. It imparts a pearly finish without accentuating my pores. The golden highlighter adds warmth to the shade and makes it a perfect blusher for wedding parties. This blusher cum highlighter stays on my cheeks for 8 hours +. I never keep my makeup more than 8 hours on my face, so I am not sure but its staying power could be more than that. Its staying power is high due to its texture, you can feel its mousse like consistency upon touch. Its lightweight almost feather like and blends like a dream on skin.
If you are looking for a highly pigmented blusher you would be disappointed, but as a blusher cum highlighter it scores really high there. It gives a naturally warm luminous glow to your skin. I apply it most of the times on the apple of my cheeks. I wear it during day time too. (No option :p) Considering the amount required for each application, this blush is going to last me for a long time.
