Sometimes I wonder if I could walk out of a 'drugstore' just window shopping and not buy or get anything, its been a struggle now a days doing that and I ultimately fail when it comes to beauty stuffs. Never the less I got 2 Silky Touch Blush from Essence which is quite budget friendly and very happy and glad with them.

Most 'drugstore' blushes over the years that I've tried aren't that great, usually their texture is hard, powdery and not very pigmented. Maybe there are so many brands out there now competing now that the quality has improve immensely.  And these from Essence are excellent, the texture is as exactly does what they say silky touch, the pigmentation are great and they blend perfectly without fallout.

Essence Silky Touch Blush: adorable (#10) (SGD $5.50) is a matte cool tone pale pink colour and I find that this shade gives me a bit of colour with natural flush and still manage to brighten up the face. The texture is really smooth and silky which makes it very easy to blend yet without any fallout.

Essence Silky Touch Blush: life's a cherry (#60) (SGD $5.50) is very deceiving from the looks out of the pan which may seems like a mauve beige colour, but is actually a very bright matte warm tone pink and gives a pretty sheen that makes your skin glow slightly. A little goes a long way for this particular blush as its quite pigmented, the texture is consistent and same like adorable (#10).

Overall I'm pretty impressed by the blushes and its definitely worth giving it a try if you are on a tight budget. The only thing is they only have 4 shades which is not a lot to choose from.

What do you think? Have you tried any of them yet?
