Hello everyone!
Today, I am here to review an awesome product from Essence. It’s one of my most favorite products from this brand. We all know that Essence is such a budget brand and all of its products have good quality. If you have read my previous reviews of blushes, you must definitely be aware of the fact that, though, I love to buy blushes, I hardly use them in my day to day life. This blush is just perfect for beginners or you can say people like me, who rarely use blushes. Read on further to know why!
Product Description:
Silk skin: a fresh complexion is essential for perfect style! You can set gorgeous, natural-looking highlights in soft as well as brighter shades on your cheeks with this silky-soft blush.
Ingredients:
Price:
INR 299 for 5 grams.
My Experience with Essence Natural Beauty Silky Touch Blush:
Packaging:
This blush comes in a medium sized, transparent, round container. The transparency of the blush makes it easy to see the color, even without opening the cap. The cap closes with a click sound, so you can easily carry it in your handbag. The surface of the blush has shapes of rings embossed on it, which really adds to the chic packaging. The packaging is not really fancy, but for the inexpensive price, it’s really good. Well, I didn’t dare drop the case in fear that the blush might break, but the plastic is quite tough and wouldn’t break at once. Over all, the packaging is travel friendly and sturdy too.
Shade: As the name suggests, Natural Beauty is a neutral peachy-pink shade with some warm brownish undertones to it. The blush has very tiny particles of light emitting silver shimmers to it. It’s a very subtle color and gives a natural flush and warmth to the cheeks. The shade is for a variety of skin tones. Do I need to say? This is the perfect shade to be worn to office and colleges.
Texture, Finish and Pigmentation: The blush really is very silky, soft and smooth to touch. The texture feels very satiny and soft. As the texture is so, using hard bristle brush (like contouring brushes) can scratch the soft layer of the blush. It’s that soft! The blush is not at all powdery; it’s soft and creamy, and easy to pick in brushes. The blush blends very effortlessly. It has a subtle sheen that gives the effect of a highlighter/illuminator along with the color when applied on cheeks. The shimmers are not really visible on the cheeks. The blush is really good in terms of pigmentation too. One swipe of the blush gives the sufficient. You won’t have to swipe the brush multiple times in the blush, unless you want to intensify the color. You won’t have to layer it on either. The color will look best when worn subtly on the cheeks.
Staying Power: The blush gives me a wearing time of 5 hours. Well, it fades a bit after 3 hours, but a visible flush of color lasts on cheeks for really long.

Jomol ma’am i had already sent the review of Pink Glam :).
@ Shikha Sharma: Do it! You’ll not regret it. I came across the blushes late, since they are about the only product in the Essence counter without testers. But, I figured, for a price this affordable, if I didn’t like them, I could hand them down to my niece. My favorite color by far is “kissable” a wonderful rosewood color with golden shimmer. I just wish, there were more colors for darker skin types – I’m not that dark, I’m mediterranean, but even for me, three out of the six available shades are too light – then again, Essence is a German brand, and most Germans have very light skin, so there’s that.
Thanks for the great review, love this site!!
