I really had a busy week in Hyderabad, so couldn't post any reviews. But finally I'm here with a lovely product from
Becca Cosmetics Creme blush in Turkish Rose

What website says...
The ultimate blush. This highly pigmented formulation and silky-smooth
texture melds into the skin for an incredibly natural, "just blushed"
look. Layer for added drama

Shades

I chose Turkish Rose which is a rosy nude shade or can also be described as dirty pinkish shade which comes up well on fair & medium skin tones.
How to use
Apply over liquid or crème based product, can be used on the lips for a beautiful wash of colour, apply to the "apples" of the cheeks (the fatty part of the cheek where
it is possible to pinch the flesh and where you would blush naturally).
In the mirror of my own experience
There are a number of shades available, & i decided to go for something natural & nude; Turkish Rose being the perfect one for this purpose! Just like my
Too Faced Full bloom lip cheek creme this can also be used as a creme blush as well as a lip color! I really love such multipurpose products & that too of an amazing brand like Becca!
Packaging
The case consists of a metallic centre & the outer side is of dark brown color. The blush is a small one but due to the metallic center is a bit heavy as compared to other blushes like Too Faced, Mac, Bourjouis etc.
The packaging is quite unique but not very beautiful. Inside we find a mirror and the blush.
Texture
The texture is really smooth & soft. It blends very easily & gives a beautiful flush to the cheeks! Has a satin effect which can be felt only when you touch it once!
Pigmentation
Stands true to it's claim as it's very pigmented & very little amount is required to get the right shade!
Application
I prefer applying this with my finger rather than a brush. For quick application just dab on a little amount onto your cheeks & blend it with your fingers!
Lasting power
being a cream blush it stays on for around 4 hours but you can increase the lasting power by applying it over a base or using some setting powder on top.
Good points
A pretty good variety of shades available.
Highly pigmented.
Has a beautiful texture & blends properly.
A lovely shade for fair skin tones & even for medium ones.
Impressive lasting power.
Bad points
The packaging is not very attractive.
The quantity is very less keeping the price in mind.
Finally...
Overall, its an impressive product with all the basic & necessary qualities! I would love to try some more shades as they all look great!!! No wonder, this is an award winning product :)
