Hi,
I was looking for the perfect coral blush for me, but since the lights in DM are so bad that I couldn't see the colors really well, I had a bit of a problem with that..
I mean in the store the light is ok, but on the shelves it's not. Each of them is lightened and it's painful for the eyes. Plus the lights create weird shadows and it's hard to see the colors.
So after 30 minutes of trying to find the right shade I walked to the counter. And next to it there was standing this LE from Alverde. Of course I've seen it before, but I never checked for their blushes.
The moment I swatched the blush in Cherry it had to go with me. It's just perfect!
Of course this is not a coral blush, not even coral red. It's more like tomato red, but on me it looks like cool red (not on the swatches but when applied).
I paid for it 3,95€. Which is actually a great price for the amount you get.

I must say that this blush is REALLY pigmented. Like when I applied it I had to gently press my brush into it and then tap the excess off. And tap it again. And then quickly and with a light hand apply on my cheeks. And EVEN then(!) I had to go over with my clean kabuki brush to remove the excess blush.
Yes indeed, this is a powerful toy. It's easy to overdo it.
This color will be my love for a veeery long time.
The 4€ it was priced at are a low price to pay for such a blush, I'm really happy!
