Going through my backlog folder. :)

Paul & Joe Packaging is always pretty. :3

Take a desired amount onto your brush. Pat brush once on the back of the hand to spread powder more evenly onto the brush. Then apply to cheeks and desired areas of the face. Use it as you like, individually or mixed. (link.)

swatch
As the other color is too light I will refer to it as a highlight. :P

Colors:  a subtle pinkish highlight - a bright pink blush - a lovely peachy pink with bits of shimmer that makes the skin look healthy & glowing .

- This product might look a bit scary in the pan because the pink looks so bright but it isn't once it's applied on the cheeks. 

- The two shades can be used alone or blended together for a lovely color. I tend to mix the 2 colors together.


PROS:
- Pretty packaging! (Always a plus in my book!)
- Each color can be used individually or together so that's 1 highlighter and 2 blushes. 
- Did not break me out.
- No scent.
- The color/s is such a pretty pink!


CONS:
- Might be expensive to some. This blush costs over $20.

- Staying power isn't so great. Fades after 3-4 hours on my oily face.
- As with all P&J products this may be hard to get.


NEUTRAL:
- The blush requires about two swipes for the color to show up. I prefer my blushes to be buildable rather than make me look like a clown in just one swipe. 


- There is no applicator. I never use the ones that comes with the product but I do know that there are some people who do.
