Coastal Scents Blush Palette Gives You Cheeky Options

Date: January 30, 2009 - Posted in: Blushes, Cheek Products, Coastal Scents, Reviews

Coastal Scents Blush Palette ($16.95) consists of ten blushes–four matte and six shimmer–and are about the size of an extra large eyeshadow. It’s housed in a sleek matte black case, and it’s about nine inches in length. The palette has a nice variety of colors, ranging from warm pinks to shimmery peach to magenta fuchsia. I would say that the majority of the colors are warmer rather than cooler, if that makes a difference for any of you. Each blush is pigmented, and of course, the matte ones run chalkier than a shimmer one, but I didn’t find them to be unexpectedly chalky or unusable. The mattes are smooth and well-textured with nice pay off.

      I tried one, and it wore just fine for me – no different than other blushes I own. Basically, I didn’t notice any issues with it, LOL.

    Looks cute, but to much pink for my A.A skintone…. oh well, I’ll have to stick to NARS. :)

      NARS still reigns supreme for blushes!

    i have this and i love it! I will say that they will last longer with some kind of cream base, but even without, they last quite a while, just like every other blush i use!

    well worth the money. i use this palette everyday and dont even reach for my MAC or Sephora blushes anymore.

    Your pictures make it look a lot more appealing than CS’s website does. Which means I’m in trouble. *adds to wishlist*

    It looks so pretty!
    Would any of these colours dupe for any MAC blushes?

      I think one might be a dupe for Well Dressed, another a substitute for Peachykeen!

    Can these also double as eyeshadows?

      I’m sure they could, but since I don’t know the safety of them, I wouldn’t recommend it.
