Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Review
Today I'm super excited to be sharing my thoughts on the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blushes in Love & Grateful. Keep reading for the details! Spoiler alert I've already bought two more shades recently and will be swatching those soon too :)!
Quick facts:
Formulation: cruelty-free, vegan, free of sulfates SLS and SLES, parabens, formaldehyde, formaldehyde-releasing agents, phthalates, mineral oils.
Application: Jumbo doe-foot applicator.
Scent: Slightly floral.
Where to buy: Sephora, Ulta or from the Rare Beauty website
Price: $23 USD
Main pros: Very very convenient, blendable and the radiant finish colors give such a beautiful natural glow to your face! You can use it not just on your cheeks but on the bridge or tip of the nose or on the sides of your temples (optimal placement depending on your face shape and the makeup look you're going for of course)!
Cons: Maybe it's just me but the matte finish formulation tends to dry a little bit patchy. I have dry-combination skin and for whatever reason the grateful colour just doesn't seem to look as healthy and smoothly blended as a radiant finish color for me.
About
On the Rare Beauty website it mentions that this is a weightless, long-lasting liquid blush that blends and builds beautifully for a soft, healthy flush. It can go over liquids or powders is made with a botanical blend of lotus, gardenia, and white water lily to help soothe, calm, and nourish skin.
* I don't really know about the skin-nourishing properties of this liquid blush, but they are truly a beautiful beautiful formulation and sit so well on the skin. Especially the radiant formulation.
Also - each full size of these blushes will probably last you and your next of kin your entire lives, so they're worth the price!
Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Swatches
How to use the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush (my preference):
- Start with a light base (moisturizer, SPF, or tinted sunscreen already on)
- Take out the applicator and dab the TEEENIEST amount one or two times on each cheek
- Use those fingies to blend out gently ;) - A sponge soaks up too much product
- Optional: set with a translucent powder
Summing up
I am in love with the radiant finishes of this liquid blush and will continue to purchase up all the colors (slowly). These I think are perfect for traveling or on the go, perfect for anyone who wears just a little bit of makeup or wants a healthy flush. You won't have to worry about carrying a brush with you or a compact shattering in your makeup bag. Highly recommend! I purchased mine from the Sephora website.
Let me know if you've tried these beautiful blushes already and share your thoughts below, I'd love to hear!
