Laura Geller Plumberry Baked Gelato Swirl Blush
Laura Geller Plumberry Baked Gelato Swirl Blush

Laura Geller Plumberry Baked Gelato Swirl Blush ($26.00 for 0.17 oz.) is described as a “deep berry pink.” It’s a brightened, medium-dark berry-pink with cool undertones and subtle golden pearl. Burberry Hydrangea Pink (P, $42.00) is less shimmery, warmer. MAC Supernova (LE, $27.00) is warmer. MAC Hot Nights (LE, $21.00) is darker, more muted. Clinique Berry Pop (03) (P, $21.00) is less shimmery. Tom Ford Beauty Narcissist (LE, $55.00) is more shimmery, cooler. Chanel Fantastic (66) (LE, $38.00) is less shimmery. NARS Panic (Left) (P, ) is lighter, brighter, cooler. ColourPop Cheerio (P, $8.00) is more muted, warmer. NARS Panic (Left) (P, ) is lighter, brighter, cooler. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

The formula is described as having vivid and “translucent, vibrant color” with a “flirty, natural-looking flush” that goes on “like a powder but feels like a cream.” They have a very similar texture as the Baked Gelato Swirl Illuminators I reviewed earlier this year, which I totally fell in love with. The texture has a smooth, denser feel to it that has good color payoff that’s incredibly easy to blend out on the skin. The pigmentation varies from shade to shade, but they are generally quite pigmented. Plumberry was incredibly pigmented with full color coverage easily achieved if desired, which means it’s a good idea to use a lighter hand and/or feathery brush if you want sheerer coverage. The texture has a smooth, dense feel to it where the color applies and blends out easily while feeling lightweight. There’s a subtle sheen to the finish that doesn’t translate into overt shimmer, and it doesn’t emphasize pores. On my skin, the blush wore well for eight and a half hours before fading.

Hi Kristina, Where did you purchase this from? I was looking for it at Ulta since they carry a lot of Laura Gellar. They have the highlighters on their website. But, I can’t seem to find the blush. Thanks! 🙂

Thanks Kristina! I actually googled and found her website.,duh! I’m sorry. I guess I should have thought of that before commenting. Must have been a long day,lol! I wound up buying the same combo of Plumberry and Gilded Honey. I think it will be gorgeous for fall! But, I missed out on the coupon code. Oh well, I’m signed up for her emails now. It looks like Ulta is now stocking these blushes too. Ulta’s shipping is pretty bad. So, unless I have a good coupon,I’ll be sticking with the direct site. 🙂

OOO now this one is really speaking to me! I like the corals you featured, but sometimes I look at my stash and think I should really branch out. This would be fantastic for fall!

I used to work in a gelato shop, and this reminds me of raspberry gelato 🙂 Wow, what a gorgeous color, love the subtle gold sparkle, and that lipstick is a perfect match

Hi Tammy,

I’m using foundation + setting powder, so you’re not really seeing the foundation’s full finish. I don’t like to give out preliminary reviews, especially for foundation, since it takes me weeks to even develop half an opinion about them, LOL! All I will say is that if you want coverage, it’s not a foundation for you.

I haven’t worn any other blush but Illamasqua Dixie for the last two years but this and Guava have me interested in something else!! Now I have to figure out how to get Laura Geller in Abu Dhabi.

What a wonderful shade for autumn and especially wintertime! It actually gives off that wind-bitten flush one might get during colder weather, I love it!
