Bobbi Brown Nude Pink Blush vs. 3CE New Pink Cream Blusher Review

What type of blusher would you choose in your time of need? 

Pink/coral colours are my go-to shades for my fair pale skin.

Today, I will be comparing 2 types of blushes: Bobbi Brown Nude Pink Blush vs. 3CE New Pink Cream Blusher.

Bobbi Brown Nude Pink Blush (MYR115 from Bobbi Brown)

Bobbi Brown Nude Pink Blush 

Powder blushes are the 'traditional' type of blushes. Powder blushes work for anyone but is particularly effective for people with an oily complexion. They do such a great job at absorbing oil and grease from the surface of the skin.

The Bobbi Brown Nude Pink Blush is a silky powder blush that offers a matte finish. It is one of Bobbi's palest pink shades. Matte blushes are great for work or daytime looks.

This powder is silky, light, pigmented and so easy to apply. It gives a subtle pink flush on the cheeks that will not go unnoticed. The colour is on the lighter side so you don't have to be too cautious if you're heavy handed with blushes during applications. I used a blusher brush to apply the powder on my cheekbones. I like how it blends so naturally on my skin.

Retailing in at MYR115, you can rest assured that you are getting a good quality product. I am guilty of dropping this case on the floor, twice! Thankful, my product is still in one piece!

3CE New Pink Cream Blusher (MYR69 from Sephora)

3CE New Pink Cream Blusher 

On the other hand, cream blushers are great if you are after a more youthful and dewy look. Cream formulas are excellent for people who have normal to dry skin, living in cold climates or are constantly exposed to the air-conditioned environment. Cold winds and low humidity can dry out the skin causing it to lose moisture over time.

3 Concept Eyes (3CE) is a Korean makeup brand from Stylenanda that has gained popularity in recent years. Instead of a pot packaging, this product comes in a tube with a pointy lid. Personally, I find tube packaging more hygienic compared to traditional pot packaging.

The actual product is pretty in pink, smooth and creamy. There are a couple of ways you can apply the cream blusher on your cheeks: using a beauty blender, stippling brush or clean fingertips. I find using my fingertips so much more convenient.

The results: Even after applying a generous amount onto my cheeks, the colour doesn't seem to reflect on my skin. I would prefer if the colours were to stand out more. Nevertheless, it did produce a glow like dewy effect.

Winner: Bobbi Brown Nude Pink Blush is a beautiful shade that highlights a natural pink flush on the cheeks. I would definitely recommend this product to people with a fair to medium skin tone.
