Hey Beauties!
I thought i would do a review on this blush by Chanel which is something quite luxury for me but i had to buy it because of the hype around it even though it was expensive i am glad i bought it.
Colour and Pigmentation
Usually for me Chanel isnt always the most pigmented brand being that it is quite a "natural look" range but lately i have notice everything in Chanel is starting to become more dramatic from the editorial images in Vogue to the actual products themselves. This blush is called Affinite and is a an intense cool pink its actually described as a "blue pink" but it means the same, i was pleasantly surprised by these blushes because i expected them to be not as pigmented as they were.
Wear Time
I had used this blush on a bride a few months back and found out from her that it had lasted the day. This blush has a cream to powder formula which makes sense as to why it out last so long. Its a very thin texture but i think thats also what goes towards making it last so long as its not to emollient but its not to dry it works the same way as lipsticks like matte lipsticks last longer than creamy ones
Packaging
I love Chanel packaging if there is one thing other than the product its the packaging i love and Chanel just screams class and sophistication. The blush is held in a small clam shell case which clips shut it has a small mirror which is good for when youre on the god but most of the Chanel compacts contain mirrors. Overall its just a really sturdy compact
Price and Where to Buy
You can purchase the Le Blush Creme de Chanel in 65 Affinite from any Chanel counter in House of Fraser, Debenhams, Harvey Nichols, Selfridges etc as well as online. They are £27 each and contains 2.5g.
The Good and The Bad
The Good? - They have a great formula
The Bad?- They are quite expensive

the pigmentation does look great!!ive been so disappointed with Dior lately as they have discontinued my favourite powder blush and the one they have replaced it with has a horrible formula...so i tried more of their powder blushes and the formula was awful..gutted..so I've bought my self some sleek blushes and they seem great & are much cheaper:)but might treat myself to a chanel creme blush:)xx
ReplyDeleteI wish it wasn't so expensive because it is super duper gorgeous... I mean, that colour! Perfection.
