ColourPop Catch My Vibe Blush Review & Swatches
Catch My Vibe
ColourPop Catch My Vibe Pressed Powder Blush ($7.00 for 0.21 oz.) is a slightly brighter, medium pink with neutral-to-warm undertones and a matte finish. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer to the point where a little went a long way due to the more powdery texture. The powderiness resulted in a fair amount of product that kicked up in the pan as well as on the brush, so I’d recommend tapping off excess for those who prefer or need a sheerer lay down of color initially.
It blended out better of drier, more matte skin (like over setting powder in my case, as I have a more normal skin type on my cheeks) and took extra effort to spread out over bare skin. This shade stayed on well for eight and a half hours before fading visibly.

Formula Overview
$12.00/0.28 oz. - $42.86 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to go on "smoothly" and have a "natural and healthy flush" that has "long wear" and "can be layered to your desired intensity." It is a lightly to moderately powdery powder blush with semi-sheer to semi-opaque, buildable color payoff. The consistency has a drier, thinner feel and though it feels silky to the touch, I found it the type of powder blush can be tricky to blend out evenly on the skin, depending on one's skin type or base preferences. The drier the skin/base, the better the formula would blend, but any natural oils or slip caused the blush to go on unevenly and was difficult to blend out. The wear was between seven and eight hours on me on average.

What a lovely shade of spring pink! Lucky for me, I have MAC’s Sugar or Syrup. But if I didn’t, I would get this one.
I’m absolutely loving this shade of pink! How beautiful!
