Sleek Californ.i.a Cream Blush Palette Review

I am having a cream blush moment. I know that when it starts getting hot out and my skin gets oily and sweaty again,  this moment will be over, but for now, I am enjoying myself. Cream blushes blend really well on the skin and have a very natural finish.

After being quite happy with Lipstick Queen's very pink Frog Prince blush, I decided I wanted something coral- a true coral. The only true coral I have is Milani's Coral Cove, and I do think the formula- which includes synthetic wax- is very powdery and does not stay long on my face.

So I did some research, and found that Sleek, a UK drugstore brand, has an entire blush line of powder and creme formulas that look really nice. I settled on Californ.i.a, a name that I don't quite understand.

It cost $5.00.

The palette is composed of three pans. In total, the palette contains 13 g of product. The shades are, from left to right:

1. Newport Peach, a bright peachy-pink

2. The Surf, a very light creamsicle orange with a bit of gold shimmer

3. OC, warmer than Newport Peach, a true coral

I enjoy all the shades in this palette and even enjoy mixing them. To use the blush, I dab the product with a small face brush with synthetic bristles, and then blend it out on my face. A little does go a long way, but the product is buildable.

I found that the shades lasted most of the day, which I found quite impressive.

Below is a picture of me wearing The Surf, which I was surprised to find wears more like a highlighter/blush topper.

I would definitely recommend this blush palette, and I am looking forward to trying more face products from Sleek in the future. 

Thanks for reading!
