Despite the sudden, heavy rainfall last Saturday, I somehow managed to attend the afternoon schedule of the
Magalogue Turnover at
Human Heart Nature Laguna's Concept Store.
I wouldn't miss this event for the world. I promised the ladies of
Human Heart Nature Laguna to be there at the launching, plus I knew beforehand that there will be new blushes hitting the shelves that day. And you know how much of a makeup junkie I am. Gotta get first dibs on new makeup, baby! :)

Whilst at the Concept Store, I had the chance to
swatch both shades of the all-new
Perfect Glow Mineral Blush. There's
Pink Bloom, a cool-toned pink reminiscent of Rosy Cheeks from the old Mineral Blush line. And then there's
Sun-kissed, a warm-toned coral that bears resemblance to another old shade, Tropical Rose. Remembering that I have way too much pink blushes already, I chose to bring home the latter - something that's not pink for a change.

Like its predecessor, the
Perfect Glow Mineral Blush is a blend of natural Vitamin E and pure mineral pigments and contains absolutely
no harmful chemicals. No chemical preservatives, no parabens, no mineral oil - none of these toxic substances. '
Only the good', as the Human Heart Nature label would say.

| Only the good! |
The most distinct difference between this blush and the old Mineral Blush is in the packaging. The
Perfect Glow Mineral Blush has a bigger size at 4.3 grams (
the old Mineral Blush was 3.5g), and it now comes in a sleek purple compact, complete with a mirror and a 'natural' brush.
 |
| Purple, which I love. |
Although the brush can pack a lot of color, I find it a bit too small and too flimsy to hold. And so I ended up using my own kabuki brush instead.

Now when it comes to color payoff, the
Perfect Glow Mineral Blush has the upper-hand against its predecessor. This new blush has better pigmentation, and wears longer (around six to eight hours) than the old Mineral Blush.
 |
| Swatching Sun-kissed! |
It has a buildable formulation and a semi-matte finish that doesn't make your face look too made up. And true to its name,
Sun-kissed gives your cheeks a nice healthy, glow - like you've been out bathing in the sun.

| Sun-kissed cheeks! :) |
What I love:
- Pretty packaging
- Now comes with a mirror
- Buildable color
- Great color pay-off
- Semi-matte finish
- Wears longer than the old Mineral Blush
- Gives your face a natural, healthy glow
- Contains no harmful chemicals
- Not tested on animals
- Affordable price (Php 275 only!)
What you might not like:
- The brush is a bit flimsy, but it does pack a lot of color.

Oh, and people of the Philippines, I hope you went out today and exercised your right to vote! :)
Very pretty and sweet light color. Great on you!! I like that it's cruelty free.
ReplyDeleteThat's a really nice color
ReplyDeleteThey are selling human nature products here in Singapore too :)
Love the color on you!
ReplyDeletei agree about the packing. very cute! I have such a hard time finding the right shade of blush. This would have been a great event to attend!
ReplyDeleteThe shade is really nice on you, I like it because you mentioned it stays on longer and has a semi-matte finish. But I don't own one so maybe I'll wait for your giveaway then! lol!
ReplyDeleteLook like the product added a glow to your face and the pros does outnumber the cons.
ReplyDeleteso love the shade of that blush! I love orangey blush I am actually using the same shade but more darker. Pink doesnt seem to look on my morena skin tone.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a blush person but that looks very nice and natural, esp on bare skin.
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice natural color and planning buy one too.. hopefully it will look great like yours.
ReplyDeleteI love Human Nature products especially their skin care prods, effective yet inexpensive!
ReplyDeleteIt looks very pretty on you!
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to find the right cosmetics. Sounds like you've found what works well for you. That's great. Lovely color, too!
ReplyDeletethe blush looks good on you I like matted ones
ReplyDeleteI should have come with you. LOL Where is SPC? Laguna resident but not familiar with the surroundings. haha
ReplyDeleteI love the color it looks natural. As always the brush included is flimsy.
I really like that blush shade you took home! Must stop by our Human Nature outlet to get it too!
ReplyDeleteI have always loved coral - toned blushes because they warm up my skin more than the pinky ones. :) Having said that, I also love sporting orange and coral lip colors to go with the blush :) I have only tried HN's eyeshadow palette and thought it was all right. This new blush seems better in terms of over-all pigmentation.
ReplyDeletethe color is really nice! i love the peach shade ;) it really is also affordable :D
ReplyDeleteNice color sis! I actually love that shade :)) Need to grab one soon!
ReplyDeleteThe blush looks good on you! Come to think of it, I haven't tried HHN makeup yet. Just a few of their skin care items, but not makeup. I should visit a branch soon :)
