Pretty Vulgar Sweet Revenge Make Them Blush Powder Blush Review, Photos, Swatches
Sweet Revenge
Pretty Vulgar Sweet Revenge Make Them Blush Powder Blush ($26.00 for 0.20 oz.) is a slightly muted, medium coral-orange with warm undertones and a satin finish. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation with a very subtle sheen–more like a “natural matte” blush when applied and diffused on the cheeks.
The formula is supposed to have “silky smooth” feel, long-wear, and be “pigment-rich.” I would describe the formula as thin with buildable coverage from medium, and long-wearing, but it was by no means “pigment-rich” as it took two to three layers for more opaque coverage. The powder was thinner and harder to diffuse and blend out on the skin; it was the type of product that tended to stick strongly wherever it was initially applied and would take stronger buffing to pull and spread the color outward. It wore well for eight hours on me before fading noticeably.

So far, out of the 3 blushes you’ve reviewed from this brand, I’m only loving Mirror, Mirror. This particular shade, Sweet Revenge, is a big miss, though.
I’m curious if any of their other blushes have a similar finish to Mirror, Mirror!
I’m going to avoid thesee satin/matte blushes from this brand! I’m going to get the shimmery one, as that one looks much more easy to work with!
I already have trouble with blush, I don’t need no hard to diffuse and buff out blush! No ma’am 😛
I only picked up three, but I’m wary of buying any other satin/mattes – definitely would consider a more shimmery one though!
Color is SO pretty, too bad the formula isn’t better
I know!! I’m curious if other shades in the line are shimmery since that one was really good but the less shimmery ones have been unimpressive.
I always always fall for this color.
I hear ya 🙂 There are colors that make me weak, too!
Good thing its dupeable.
