Price: $10 (Approx.)

L’Oreal’s newest cheek product is its Visible Lift Color Lift Blushes, which are said to illuminate the cheeks for a youthful look. The blush currently comes in six (6) shades. This review is for the shade Nude Lift, which is a light, desert sand shade with peach undertones.

Please see this post if you would like to see photographs and swatches of all six (6) colors.

Packaging: 9/10

These blushes come in round, plastic compacts with snap-shut, clear lids. The compacts are extremely light-weight.

Quality: 9.25/10

Nude Lift is a very natural and neutral shade. It gives the cheeks the most subtle tint of color, making the shade match with any eye or lip shade. This peachy-brown-nude shade is light, so those with skin darker than NC/NW20 will have a hard time getting it to show up.

The pan has silver micro-shimmers that aren’t perceptible once the blush is applied but gives the blush a slight luminescence.

The formula feels like a humid mousse in the pan (it’s a little more soft than Maybelline’s Dream Bouncy Blushes) but dries to a powder finish.

The color wears well through the day. Fading of the color starts after about six (6) hours of wear.

Ease of Use: 9.5/10

The mousse/cream/gel formula glides over the skin easily and Nude Lift’s natural color makes it nearly fool-proof to apply and blend.

Price: 8/10

For around $10.00, you get 0.14 ounces (4 grams) of product. This is more expensive than Maybelline’s Dream Bouncy Blushes, which cost less and contain more product.
