Urban Decay Afterglow Blush

9:30 AM

 On the 17th of this month I purchase the Urban Decay Afterglow 8 Hour Powder Blush. I got it at half price during the Ulta 21 Days of Beauty. I've blogged this event before which you can check out HERE.
Range of shades of the Urban Decay Afterglow Blush

These are not all the colors in this range, but they were the ones that I was attracted to most. I feel these ones are the most wearable, and compliment my skin tone best. From left to right these shades are Score, Indecent, Kinky, Video, Fetish, and Rapture. I probably stared at this stand for 45 minutes deciding which one I wanted most.
I ended up deciding on Fetish.
 After what seemed like forever of swatching and comparing over and over again, I finally decided on fetish. 



The packaging on this product is very sturdy and I feel that it would keep my product safe. It's not flimsy and you can really tell the quality just by seeing it. I know I can rely on this blush to last.


Swatch of Fetish.
This swatches beautifully! The color is pigmented, but not to the point of looking excessive on your face. It's very very easy to blend. It claims to have a lasting power of 8-hours. I don't agree with this, maybe its my setting spray or maybe my primer. Yet, I don't find it lasts more than just a few hours. If you're one who touches up your makeup regularly then this is for you! But, if you're like me, too busy or just don't find it important then now you know it doesn't last too long. A cool thing about this, especially if you love rosy eyeshadows like me, you could also apply this on your lids! In your crease or on your lid, this applies subtly and effortlessly. I've tried applying this wet to get more pigment, it worked although, it didn't apply as smooth. For my cheeks, I applied this using the Real Techniques Blush Brush, which works perfect!

I give this product an 8/10. The reason I took off points is because it's in the name, it should last 8 hours. Which makes you expect a long wearing blush, this is not. I love the color, the way it applies and how blendable it is.
