An Open Love Letter To Clinique…

”Dear Clinique,

I’m writing to let you know that I adore your Blushing Powder Blush, particularly in ‘Precious Posy’. If you ever decide to discontinue it, please immediately inform me. I will personally clear out your supplies of this product from every Clinique counter within 40km radius. If I could actually purchase an industrial-sized vat of this blush, straight from your manufacturing plant, that would be even better.

Yours sincerely,

chocolatelace xx”

Yes, Clinique’s Blush in ‘Precious Posy’ has been my all-time favourite blusher for so many years! When I see the bottom of the metal blush pan peeking through I hyperventilate, sweat and feel my blood pressure rise to extreme heights until I am able to reach the nearest Clinique counter.

The blush itself is a highly pigmented, peachy-coral colour, awash with fine golden shimmer, which leaves your cheeks with a luminous glow and natural radiance. The secret behind this product appears to be not only the colour. The silky smooth, finely-milled texture allows the product to glide onto the skin for a seamless, natural finish.

I love this product for quick, simple, no fuss make-up, especially in the morning, as I do tend to hit the snooze button an illegal amount of times. All you need to do is to tap the blush brush to the product once, swirl onto the apples of the cheeks, before blending it towards the hairline. It’s also great paired over matte bronzer over the cheekbones. The shimmering finish and warm hue masquerades as both a highlighter and colour ‘pop’ to the cheeks.

With the smooth texture, luminous sparkle and luxurious to-die-for packaging, you won’t want to put Clinique’s ‘Precious Posy’ blush back into your makeup bag. Ever.

    I love the feminine color but having never applied blush before I am sure the simple application would turn into a horrific ordeal..lol. Maybe I will stop by the counter and have them apply it for me for a color test drive
