Blush .. It makes me think of Jane Austen and how she describes the flushed look on Elizabeth Bennet when Darcy proposes marriage. It was my first insight into the early English society and even today English porcelain skin and the soft rosy flushed look they get is stuff of legends.

Why do I go about on English society ?? That’s because I found a blush which I thought would suit me and then realized that it will suit the porcelain skinned ladies much better.
Presenting the one blush in my humble stash which I absolutely love to look at but impossible to wear. Sleek Makeup blush in “Life’s a Peach”.
Price: $5.99
Sleek as a brand needs no introduction and our blogging world is full of their product reviews. I saw Sleek blush for the first time when I met a friend in Chennai who had Sleek Flamingo, and Pomegranate blushers. They looked divine!
This blush looks almost neon-ish orange in pan. No glitter, no shimmer just bright, bright orange. Nowhere peachy 🙁 but when worn it just makes all that neon vanish and leaves you with beautiful healthy soft peachy look. Only down side of this blush is, it will suit only those who favor a more neutral undertone, and are below NC39 in MAC.
The blush is housed in standard Sleek packaging with a mirror, and no brush. The blush is insanely pigmented, one dip into the pan is more than sufficient. And the key here is to blend well. More you blend, better the finish, beautiful the blush sits on your cheeks. Oh did I forget? Use a fluffy brush to blend this. Your fingers wont work (that was my experiment gone wrong !! 😛 )
Here is how it looks on my sister’s (NC39 in MAC) hand
Well that’s all I have on Sleek Makeup Blush in Life’s a Peach. Will I re-purchase this ? I ask you, will I even finish this ?? Nope. However I am looking forward to buying Pomegranate, Flushed, Sahara and Flamingo.
Do you have Sleek blush ?? What do you have to say about them ?? Let us know!
Until then
Ciao.
