Givenchy It-Girl Purple Le Prisme Blush ($44.00 for 0.24 oz.) is a cool-toned, light-medium pink with blue undertones and a satin finish. NARS Mistinguette (LE, $29.00) is lighter. MAC Pure Femininity (LE, $21.00) is a smidgen darker. theBalm Argyle (P, $22.00) is darker. theBalm Down Boy (P, $21.00) is comparable. NARS Gaiety (P, $29.00) is cooler-toned. MAC Well Dressed (P, $21.00) is similar. MAC I’m the One (LE, $21.00) is darker. Bobbi Brown Nude Pink (P, $26.00) is more matte. See comparison swatches.

The texture was incredibly soft and finely-milled, and at times, a bit powdery, though it did not show on the skin–it looked soft, lightly luminous but never dry or powdery. It blended out easily, and the color was buildable and nicely pigmented. The blush lasted almost eight hours on me before it started to show signs of fading.  The satin finish gave off a gorgeous sheen and luminosity that didn’t emphasize pores.  I think this would be particularly lovely on cooler complexions as a go-to everyday shade.

It’s so coincidental that you reviewed this. I was literally thinking of purchasing this the other day, and didn’t because I couldn’t find a good review on it. I’ve been in the market for a light, everyday pink shade (I tend to lean towards rose tones) that has a satin finish, I’m NW30 in MAC Studio Fix, & Sand Beige in Laura Mercier Silk Creme. My go to shade has been Benefit Dandelion for years, something I can just throw on and run out the door, but I want one with less obvious shimmer/sheen. Any recommendations from you Christine, or anyone else?

I know that what I’m going to ask has NOTHING to do with this post, but what’s your favorite glitter glue? I’m tired of trying a bunch that doesn’t work

Hi Christine! Will you be reviewing any of the Givenchy Le Prisme Visage Mat Soft Compact Face Powders? I wanted to buy a high-end finishing powder but I can’t decide between Givenchy, Hourglass, or Guerlain.

The blush is so pretty. The mix of pinks and lilacy pink is perfect for winter. I like Givenchy but have never considered trying their blushes before. It’s nice to know they perform well and there seem to be some very pretty colours around. It’s so nice to see you reviewing more Givenchy. It is a sorely underrated brand that deserves more exposure than it gets.

I don’t know why, but Givenchy products haven’t ever really impressed me. None of them. I’m going to test out their blushes again at Sephora tomorrow. I had to exchange something anyways. Maybe I’ll change my mind. In comparison, Guerlain blushes seem to be far higher quality.
