Powder Blusher in Morale (Rosed Flush) mirrors the glimmering starlight that illuminates the insomniac’s lair of unending night-time pleasures. A decadent pigment that dares you to be fearless.
Rosed flush, shimmer finish
Unfortunately it broke before it reached me..its very very soft to touch and may be thats why…it needs to be handled carefully.
As described its indeed a color that gives a rosy flush on the cheeks. It looks quite dark and purply in the pan but the color comes out pinker when used lightly.
It has silver shimmer and is a perfect evening wear blush…gives a fuchsia purple color when layered up. As mentioned in the tip above this shade can give four to five variants depending on how intensely its used.
The other blush Ambition from this collection is more of a neutral peachy shade.
Pros:
1. Its very very pigmented and you need just a little for that rosy cheeks.
2. I liked the classic Illamasqua packaging.
3. This shade can give you different variations of color depending on how you used it.
4. Its a perfect night time blush.
5. This is going to last super long as less is more with this.
6. Its very finely milled and is satin smooth in texture.
7. It would also work as an eye shadow and a pretty pink gloss when mixed with a clear one.
Cons:
1. There is no brush or mirror with this.
2. One needs to be very careful using this and start with very less..as there are high chances one would end up with a clown face..it being so pigmented.
3. Not available here.
Overall its quite a pretty blush and I loved the quality of these..just that one needs to be careful in using.
