Price:
€3 for 4.5gms (approximately 210 INR)
My Experience with Essence 20 All You Need is Pink Mosaic Blush:
The blush comes in a round plastic casing with a flap lid. The lid opens and closes easily. The lid when closed is tight and doesn’t open up accidentally. This is one thing I consider while travelling. The whole packaging is transparent and the mosaic pattern can be seen from the outside.
The blush itself has different colors and mosaic pattern. There are a total of three different colors spread randomly across the blush. The main color is the pink which provides a healthy look to the face. Two of these colors are with shimmer and one is matte. Overall the color is mild pink with slight shimmer.
The consistency of the blush is powdery. I have applied this blush a few times and it looks very mild and doesn’t stand out. I think it’s very important that the blush doesn’t stand to avoid looking like a joker. I usually apply very small amount of the blush but with this you can go a little heavy handed.
I definitely recommend it to beginners due to the fact that they are not light handed. The shimmer in the blush makes it not so suitable for office. At least for me, I don’t prefer to wear shimmery blushes to office. So the only time I wear such kind of blushes is during the weekend. With this blush, you can easily skip the highlighter.
I have a very sensitive skin and usage of this product didn’t cause any kind of breakout or irritation. The blush stayed on me for more than 5 hours outdoors and after that it faded a little but was still existent. The color is such that it suits most skin tones. Overall it’s a nice basic blush which I prefer to use during the weekends.
Pros of Essence 20 All You Need is Pink Mosaic Blush:
• Sturdy, handy packaging
• There are 3 shades of pink in the blush
• Slight shimmer replaces the need of a highlighter

• Shelf life of 18 months
Cons of Essence 20 All You Need is Pink Mosaic Blush:

IMBB Rating:
4.2/5
Would I Repurchase Essence 20 All You Need is Pink Mosaic Blush?
I have a lot of blushes and I hardly get to finish half of the product before the expiry date. I am also always on the hunt to find new products. So I don’t think I will go for the same shade, might go for a different shade.
Would I Recommend Essence 20 All You Need is Pink Mosaic Blush?
It’s a very basic shade which suits most of the skin tones. If you want a blush for parties or outdoors, then it’s worth a try. I would not recommend it for office wear due to the shimmer.
