Formula Overview
$49.00/0.19 oz. - $257.89 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "buildable, long-lasting color," which was somewhat true. I'd argue that they were pigmented enough that using a light-to-moderate hand was key to getting more buildable color application, but they were very blendable and more forgiving if one went overboard with the initial application of product.
The blushes had a smooth, silky texture that was thin without being clingy, so the powder picked up evenly with a brush and deposited for even, blended color with little effort. They wore around eight hours on average.

Beautiful shade, but just far too easily dupable with many other less expensive, yet just as good looking blushes already in existence. Benefit Galifornia, for example.
With a name like Radiant Pink, I was hoping this would be a true pink, rather than a coral pink. It is incredibly pretty, though.
This is definitely for me – I absolutely love the colour, the finish – everything (except the price here in Aus would probably be horrific).
I checked on the Canadian Sephora site and (if I’m remembering correctly) it’s $65, which is a bit insane for a blush! Still….it they ever do get it in store (it’s so new that it’s showing as not available in store and sold out online), I might just weaken enough to buy it.
Another lovely shade.
