OOTD, Chanel tweed Blush Swatch & Mini Review

Hello lovelies!

 I am happy to announce that the sun has arrived in London and the weather has been beautiful these past weeks, therefore I have been taking every opportunity to dress up in my summer outfits before the sun disappears again (which is very often).

Chanel Blush in tweed coral. 
 
So pretty!
 
Without flash, it was really hard to swatch for some reason. You can see though, that it is a very light coral pink.

With flash, you can see it's a lovely shimmery coral. It's quite similar to Sleek's Rose Gold?

Likes:
- It's really natural looking, if you want more colour, you can gradually build it up.
- It has some shimmers in it, unlike other blushers, the shimmers are discreet. Comparing this to Rose Gold by Sleek, you can definitely see a difference in quality. With Rose Gold, you can definitely see the shimmers and you have to really control how much blush to apply to avoid the caked-on effect. With Chanel, the shimmers are not as intense, it gives you a glow rather than looking cakey
- Great quality

Dislikes:
- the price may not suit a lot of people; £30.

I definitely recommend this blush if you are willing to dish out £30 for a blush, but it's definitely not a "must have", it's more of a luxury product.

Hope you enjoyed this post! Lots of love, xX <3
