The Artistique Blush formula is supposed to have a “naturally glowing finish.” The formula is consistent: the blushes have a very soft, almost cream-like powder texture that blends out effortlessly to a luminous sheen with semi-opaque to opaque coverage (that is easily applied more sheerly or layered for true-to-pan color) and good wear (eight to nine hours). Angelique had good color payoff with a really silky, smooth, and blendable texture that sat well on the skin–it didn’t emphasize pores but still produced a noticeable glow. It wore well for eight hours on me before fading slightly.
A note on packaging: Surratt’s range comes in lightweight plastic pans, which aren’t ideal for long-term use (particularly if traveling or putting in a makeup bag), as his products are designed to be put into custom palette solutions. Personally, I put magnets on the back of each and keep them in freestyle palettes (like a Z-Palette) as it is more economical.

The blushes in this range are so pretty, but I just can’t get past this brand wanting people to buy their $22 custom palette solution/use a different custom palette. At least do like UD and their eyeshadows and have a somewhat stable packaging the pans can pop out of if you want to use the custom palettes.
Totally understand, Catherine! The cost of the custom palette is too much for me as well, so I opt not to bother. I do the same with Cle de Peau.
Likey! Mucho likey!
Yay!
Gorgeous… I’m on a low buy (again, haha!), but I definitely want to own a Surratt blush this lifetime. 🙂
One day! 🙂
It’s a pretty peachy shade, but I think Surratt needs to re-think the pricing on this. First, this shrunk from .20 oz to .14 oz, and it’s +60% more expensive per oz than a Tom Ford blush. This is $49 for .14 oz ( $ 32 blush +$17 travel compact) vs. $ 60 for .28 oz. I like some of the more unique shades in this line, but this is crazy.
The range is definitely an expensive one.
This is so pretty! I won’t be getting it though, because I already have 2 of its listed dupes in CP Butterfly Beach and MAC Shaft Of Gold. And those 2 get used quite often as they’re in heavy rotation.
Money saved 😀
What a lovely peach color!
Agreed!
It’s the perfect melon shade! I’m not sure I can pull it off but I’d certainly swatch it if I had a counter near me. SO perfect for summer with the semi opaque coverage and glowing finish!
Aw, I wish you could swatch!
