Cheek Pop Reviews

Once upon a time, I went on a massive blush binge and stumbled across Temptalia's review of these beauties. Luckily I managed to get my hands on both at a slightly reduced price and boy, I don't regret either.

Skin type : NC25 in Mac, combo-oily ( dryer on the cheeks), glasses wearing.
Owned shades : Peach Pop and Ginger Pop.

Pros : Very flattering on my tanned skin, good wear time 6-8 hours, weirdly doesn't transfer onto my glasses even though my foundation does, very buildable.

Cons : Slightly pricey compared to an average drugstore blush, but you definitely get what you pay for.

Cheek Pop is the best! I have never come across another blush with a pressed powder and gel consistency all blended into one but it makes the formula truly unique. Clinique are not lying when they claim that Cheek Pop is virtually powderless because at first glance the formula appears to be a creme blush. Although Cheek Pop only comes in four shades, you can be sure that this blush truly packs a punch in the colour stakes. Simply gradually build up the colour on the apples of cheeks and blend back along the cheekbone toward the hairline. The shades in the range are simply beautiful and all different so there's no need to stop at one - choose two at a time and alternate to change your mood or to transform your day look to an evening look. Cheek Pop is really well priced because the heavily pigmented formula lasts a long time - only a little is needed. Peach Pop is my current favourite shade because peach accentuates all skin tones and always gives skin a healthy glow. This blush lasts all day long, staying beautiful and fresh as the hours pass. The packaging is slimline and compact making it perfect for carrying with you if you would prefer, although a touch up will not be necessary unless you wish to add more for an evening look. The scent is very subtle and almost non-existent, and the formula is so gentle I would recommend it for all skin types without hesitation. Next time you purchase a blush be sure to head to a Clinique counter and purchase Cheek Pop because it will not disappoint.

I have the shade melon pop, and it is the most beautiful coral-peach shade I have ever owned. I have warm-toned and pale complexion, and a light dust of this colour gave my skin a boost for those days I had 4 hours of sleep. It has a soft sheen and a sheer finish that looked like your cheeks were just pinched. It adds a lovely and natural glow to the face. The only thing I'm dreading is the lasting power, unfortunately for oily skin it lasts for 2 hours max. I have tried primer and setting spray and powder to make it last, but the colour quickly wears off.

Not only is the packaging super cute and the flower design gorgeous but the shade range and formula is nice and pigmented. It applies smoothly and lasts all day.

These blushes are so adorable, and are such an amazing formulation. I am usually drawn to mineralized blushes or blushes that appear to have a healthy, natural sheen or glow. Once applied these blushes have the most gorgeous glowing sheen of colour, then are very soft to the touch and blend out like a dream. Whenever you are using bright pops of colours don't be put off, a little goes along way and these colours apply such a soft beautiful flush to the cheeks when used this way. They are in my opinion well worth the price as they perform beautifully and come in a range of shades, I cant wait to collect more!

This comes in a clear case, with the blush itself shaped as a flower - how can you possibly lose with that?

This is a powder blush that can go on very pigmented, so be very careful when you apply it! You can obviously build on it too, so start off gently with a stippling brush, and you can go from there.

It doesn't have much of a scent, and is a very pretty product - this is worth looking into.

while this colour may look bright in the container it is so pretty on the cheeks. this can add a subtle hint of colour if you go in with a light-hand, or can be build up to a more noticeable pink flush. its easy to apply and blend, and is really long lasting. highly reccomend!

I finally settled on this in plum pop (after trying out all of them on numerous occasions), which is a bright cool-toned pink rather than your conventional plum shade. I love the cute design of the blush and the flower is indented quite deeply so it will be a long while before I mess it up :) The clear round packaging is simple and relatively sturdy; it won't pop open in your bag but I believe it will break if dropped onto a hard surface. It certainly lasts on my combination skin for at least 6 hours with slight fading and the colour remains vibrant throughout the time. The surface of the blush looks creamy but it is actually a smooth powder blush. The powder is so deeply pressed that you don't get any fallout/kick up any dust when you go into this with a brush. I like using my real techniques stippling brush to apply this as it is the perfect size for this blush and gives me a natural pop of colour on my cheeks. The blush goes on the skin smoothly and look almost as if it was already blended so there isn't too much blending work involved. You also don't need as much product as the blush is highly-pigmented and results in a dewy satin finish without emphasizing any pores/dryness. The only gripe I have is the price as it is so much cheaper overseas and at airports/duty-free shops and I don't think this is worth $40 despite being a lovely product.

Great blush! Despite its bright appearance, gives a lovely soft colour!
