The TruBlend Blush formula is supposed to be blendable and create a “multi-toned result.” It was the richest and deepest shade of the three that CoverGirl came out with this spring. It had good color payoff with a soft, smooth, and blendable texture (very key with a color like this!) that applied beautifully to the skin. The texture ran a smidgen dusty, but it didn’t look dry or powdery on me. This shade wore well for seven hours before there were signs of fading.

This is soon pretty! I’m getting this. I picked up the light the other day when I saw it in The grocery store,( that’s convenience for ya!)lol. I really love that one too! The cool tones pull the green out in my hazel eyes. But, I think it would be so nice on all people. It’s really great that d/s brands have stepped it up.

Wow, this is SO pigmented for a DS blush!! This will go well with my berry and red lippies, and it’s a dupe for much more expensive products. I think I’ve bought 2 Cover Girl products in last 10 years, but this blush and the new TruBlend Bronzer might change that, esp. if I can BOGO 50% off.
