Of all the years i have owned Bobbi Browns blush in apricot, i have never thought to review it until now! Apricot was one of my first Bobbi Brown blushes and it's one i still enjoy using!
Apricot is a vibrant pinky coral and seems so bright in the pan, however on the skin it's a different story! This blush is very sheer but can be built up and it has a matte finish, which gives long lasting wear.
It has a very silky formula and isn't chalky or powdery. It applies extremely well and looks stunning on dark skin tones (especially when it's on the apples of the cheeks). I find it super easy to blend and it's a blush that you can't over apply. I find myself building up the colour on my cheeks, to give it a more pinky glow! I either use a MAC 187 or MAC 168 brush.
The blush comes in simple, plain plastic packaging and has a clear top, so you can see the colour of the product. Unfortunately just like the MAC blushes, there is no mirror.

This blush pretty much lasts on my skin all day, i apply it at 7.30am and it's still there at 5pm! The blush doesn't go patchy or blotchy and clings to your skin all day. Apricot is a shade that goes well with all skin tones but because of the coral, it looks fabulous on warmer skin. The £19 price tag may put people off, but i have had this for yonks and still haven't hit pan!

Do you change your blushers within 2 years or do you wait for it to finish? i have lots of blushers which are expensive & ive been told that i should change them within 2 years or else it goes out of date
ReplyDeleteThanks for this reminder! I have a pan of Apricot lurking in my drawer which I haven't touched for aaages. With summer on it's way down here in South Africa I'll definitely be taking this out
