The Body Shop All-In-One Blusher in 05 Bubblegum

When it comes to blush, is there a color/shade you always reach out for?

For me, it's the no-nonsense pink blush. My skin is fair, hence this shade looks most natural on me. Since I have oily skin, my personal preference is powder blush, since it's easy to apply and it reduces that shiny appearance.

I've reviewed 3 items from The Body Shop's All In One Make-up Range:

Now, it's time to complete my review of this makeup range by finishing off The Body Shop All-In-One Blusher.

The Body Shop All-In-One Blusher in 05 Bubblegum (P695.00)

About the product:

  • Made in Italy
  • 4g
  • Shelf life: 24 months

Ingredients:


A noteworthy thing about this blush is that it's makeup and skincare in one. It contains Vitamin E and marula oil to moisturize the skin, even in powder form! I spot in the ingredient list even more skin-loving ingredients such as sualane and shea butter.

Shades:

  • 01 Macaron
  • 02 Ginger
  • 03 Flushed
  • 04 Marshmallow
  • 05 Bubblegum
  • 06 Guava

The All-In-One Blusher comes in 6 shades, ranging from matte to shimmery.


The All-In-One Blusher comes in a simple plastic packaging with a clear, dome-shaped lid, so you can easily see the shade inside. Though not the most durable-looking, mine hasn't cracked yet even with months of everyday use.

The shade I have is 05 Bubblegum, which is a cool-toned, matte pink blush. It might look mild and "harmless" in the pan, but it is pigmented! I love it's super fine, smooth, and silky texture, probably due to the oil content inside.

Swatches:



A little goes a long way with this pigmented blush. I love the fact that it has no shimmers in this shade.

Pros:
  • Comes in 6 shades 
  • Lightweight, compact packaging
  • Pigmented
  • Beautiful color payoff
  • Powder is super fine and velvety-smooth to touch
  • Blends easily, buildable
  • Lasts for about half day on my oily skin, more when I use a long-wearing base under it
  • No scent
  • No breakouts
  • Can work for all skin types (from dry to oily)

Cons:
  • Pricey if not on sale
  • Packaging doesn't look very durable

Price: P695.00/4g
Would I repurchase? Yes, in other shades but only if it's on sale! ;)
Available in all The Body Shop stores nationwide.

Like The Body Shop, Philippines for more info on their products.

Love,
Helen
