Accessorize Merged Baked Blusher Quiver – Rs 750, available at Jabong
Accessorize Merged Baked Blusher Quiver comes in plastic packaging with a see through lid. Packaging feels pretty sturdy and opening and closing the lid is smooth. I love those butterflies on the lid.
Color – Quiver looks frosty pink with hints of mauve. It appears quite light/ dull/pale in the pan but comes off pretty bright upon application. The shade doesn’t look overly/ uncomfortably bright and can be worn during the day or to work.
Texture & Formula – It feels smooth upon touching and swatching. Blusher has fine shimmer which are not over powering and give a glowy/ highlighted look to cheeks. I can compare the formula to Bourjois Blush Rose Frisson.
Pigmentation – Its quite sheer but buildable. I swept it twice on my cheeks and the color was pretty visible. I love to wear it sheer for more naturally flushed cheeks & highlighted cheek bones. In my opinion this shade would suit fair to medium skin tones. On darker skins this would work more as a highlighter.
Staying power – It has average staying power. On me it lasts for 5 hours max (fading gradually). On bare skin it doesn’t last longer than 3-4 hours.
Before we all start raising brows over the price of Accessorize Blush I wanted to share the price of other baked Blushes I have and for how much quantity.
- MAC Mineralized Blush Love Joy – 3.5g – Rs 1650
- Bourjois Rose Frisson – 2.5g – Rs 575
- Accessorize Baked Blush – 8g for Rs 699 (On offer)
Though the formula & Staying power of MAC and Bourjois is bit better than this one, but then we are getting almost double (triple) amount of product for much lesser price (just to make you all & myself feel better).
That’s how it looks on me
Overall Thoughts
Accessorize Merged Baked Blusher Quiver can be a good choice for fair to medium skintones. It looks absolutely flattering on my skintone and highlights cheekbones really well. Formula is quite smooth with average pigmentation. Though all of us know that Accessorize products are bit over priced and not easilyt available (can only be purchased online). For me the only negative is its staying power, I was expecting it to stay for at least 6-7 hours. You can find possible dupes or similar but better quality baked blushes in Bourjois or MAC. I wouldn’t say I am totally disappointed but was expecting a bit more from the brand.
Ratings : 3/5
P.S. If you are wondering what all I have used for my FOTD. Garnier BB Cream, Accessorize Blusher, MUA Lip Boom Its a situation and Inglot AMC 26 eyeshadow.
