Victoria Beckham Beauty Miniskirt Cheeky Posh Cream Blush Review & Swatches
Miniskirt
Victoria Beckham Beauty Miniskirt Cheeky Posh ($42.00 for 0.17 oz.) is a darker, plummy brown with warm undertones and a natural finish. It had semi-sheer to medium, buildable pigmentation that applied evenly to bare skin, blended out beautifully, and layered well on top of bare skin or over foundation/base products.
The consistency was lightly emollient to the touch, spreadable, and didn’t feel tacky over time. It stayed on nicely for eight hours before showing signs of fading.

Formula Overview
$42.00/0.17 oz. - $247.06 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "buildable coverage with a "natural, easy flush" with "last[ing]" color. They offer semi-sheer to medium, buildable coverage, as marketed, and even though it seemed more opaque when applied directly from the tube, the formula readily sheered out in practice, so it had to be layered to achieve higher coverage.
I preferred picking up product with a fingertip or a stippling brush and then applying, as this gave me greater control over the area of spread. If working directly from the tube, I recommend a gentle dab and a very, very short and sweet swipe motion (nothing more than 1/2"!). The consistency was more like a gel-cream with good glide, light dewiness, and sat well on bare skin as well as on top of foundation as it wasn't prone to disturbing base products.
The formula did not feel tacky during wear, and while they weren't very dewy, they had a natural finish overall. They wore for eight hours before showing signs of slight fading on me.

What a gorgeous looking tawny blush! This is one I would actually use up. It’s just that perfect for me 😊
This looks really nice! And I think it would be easy to use too. A lovely shade on you Christine. I hope there are some corals in the range.
Christine, are there other Victoria Beckham products you’ll be reviewing? I am curious about her eye liners. This blush looks really nice too!
Here are the products I bought – https://www.temptalia.com/victoria-beckham-beauty-swatches/
Thanks for linking that post again! I’d completely forgotten about it and appreciate the refresher on what’s to come.
No problem!
For what it is worth, I have a bunch of eye liners and I like them a lot. They are very soft.
Not for me, this colour, but it looks lovely.
I like this. Silicone-free, interesting shade, luxe looking packaging. I don’t love hydrogenated vegetable oil in my facial products, but I’d be willing to try it out. These peaked my interest, but I watched a video of Kackie on youtube and she bags on colors a lot – sometimes warranted, sometimes it’s very confusing wtf her point is (not always based in practical reality) – including these VBB stick blushes.
I look forward to seeing more colors if/when you review them! I really want to dip my toe in VBB, but I haven’t been struck by an “it” item yet that I can’t live without or want to spend that cash on.
