Today's ABAD features a very very cool pink blush from Japanese drugstore brand Melliesh. As much as I love lilac hues, I've always had a heart for barbie pinks. My blush phase went like this: first the obsession over peaches and oranges, later corals, then lilacs, then pinks and cool pinks...I hope I won't end up with browns/plums or bronzey colors!
今天的文介紹日本開架品牌Melliesh. 雖然紫色調的胭脂是我的至愛, 但barbie的粉紅顏色我是絕對喜歡的. 次序大概是這樣的: 我先喜歡蜜桃/橙色, 然後是珊瑚色, 接著是紫色, 然後到粉紅...希望我不會喜歡上啡色/深紅那些顏色吧!
The packaging is pretty minimal I'd say, and it feels a bit bulky too!
I almost thought I saw a bit of pale purple tones in this blush, but maybe that's just me.我總是覺得這個顏色帶粉紫色調...但可能是我看錯吧.
I applied more than necessary in this pic, LOL. This blush is pretty pigmented with a swipe or two but for some reason the camera couldn't quite capture it, so I had to apply more for photo-taking purposes.在下圖看到的顏色都是掃得太多才會這樣的. 胭脂本身掃1-2下已經非常顯色, 但相機不太能捕捉, 所以為了影相效果而塗多了.
Intensity: pretty highFinish: tiny shimmer
Price: $10 USD
Lasting power: 5-6 hours
Repurchase: no
Overall thoughts: The plastic packaging, when removed upon initial use, is pretty but the actual compact is pretty bulky and minimalist = not attractive at all. As for the shade itself, it's quite cool-toned so it might be difficult to work on some skintones. There are 6 colors released in this range (one is a highlighter and another is for contouring), so the remaining 4 shades aren't very diversified colors I'd say.
上色度: 高
上色度: 高
效果: 小量閃粉
價錢: $10 USD
持久度: 5-6 小時
回購: 不會
總評: 透明塑膠包裝比較單調和厚, 老實說不太討好. 顏色方面, 這類粉紅不是每個人都能夠carry的. 雖然Melliesh胭脂系列有6種顏色 (1款用來作highlight, 另1款用來作瘦面效果), 其餘4種色的選擇不夠多.
What is A-Blush-A-Day (ABAD) Project?
On each day, each of us will present a different blush (old or new) we used each day (so that's 4 x 30 = 120 blushes), with swatches done either on face or on hand, and a short review. For my list of 30 blushes to be used in this project, click here. Don't forget to head to Elaine's, Vonvon's, PopBlush's blogs for daily blush surprises!

ReplyDeleteLOL i don't think you'll be trying the brown/plums or bronzey blushes any time soon. that's so funny.. my blush obsession started with baby/rosy pinks, lilacs and now corals ... but i'm sure it'll go back to light pinks and start all over again =)
cute color but i dont think i can pull it off too.. thanks for the swatches
ReplyDeleteTo me it also looks like it has a bit of purple :)
ReplyDeleteRaspberry cookie, yes? *nom nom* :O~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ReplyDeleteHaven't tried anything from this brand, but the pink is so sweet.
ReplyDeleteThe Japanese "drugstore" brands offer so many wonderful colours and modern textures, I wish our local affordable brands were the same! They've been making the same blush formulas for over 20 years :(

This blush looks really cute! I also had blush phases, like raspberry pink --> dark orange --> baby pink --> lavender pink --> orange --> coral XD
ReplyDeleteReally cute pink but might be too cool for those with warm skin tones. :)
ReplyDeletei can see some purple understones in it too. :3 but this is a really pretty blush! ^_^
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA I caught the light in a lucky angle, actually! Cause I got this big zit on the side of my nostril O_O" it's SO BIG. I never get 'big' zits. They usually just get very red, so they look big. But this one is like a CRATER on my face! >_<"
ReplyDeleteI looooove this blush! *_* the sheen is beautiful! Like... a better version of Pink Swoon! or a more vibrant pink version of Tickled Pink!
