Hello everyone,
I got my colormate blush from Dollar Tree!
I got it in the tone sunkissed tan.
Judging from the product color itself i thought it was more of a brown - reddish color,
where brown> red.
At first i thought that i might be able to use it as a "contour".
But after i swatch it on my hand, i was wrong ...
The color turns out to be really reddish!
And it looks nothing like i thought at first, as judging from the color it shows it was really more "brown".
But it gives out a whole new tone after the swtach,
btw, it looks like a really nice color for blush but definitely not for contour. =X
I started to be more creating and try to use it as a eyebrow powder,
as i will always used eyebrow mascara after my eyebrow powder,
therefore i decided to give it a try.
Before
Left eyebrow = Nothing on it
Right eyebrow = Done my eyebrow already
After
Left eyebrow = Colormates blush as eyebrown + eyebrow mascara
Right eyebrow = Originally done eyebrow
THEY . LOOK . IDENTICAL!!
THEY . LOOK . ALMOST. THE. SAME!!
OHMYGOSH
But although the picture couldn't tell,
the left eyebrow where I used colormates blush as eyebrow powder,
appear a little more reddish.
My whole eyebrow appear to be in the reddish-brown tone.
Moving on to my next experiment,
i try to use it as a "eye shadow"!
I put some on my eyelid and try to examine the amount of pigment that will show up.
It appear not as obvious as regular eye shadow but it works well for natural look / base color.
Last but not least!
I try it on my cheek !
OMG THE COLOR IS JUST SO BEAUTIFUL !!
I apologize for the bad lighting,
but i swear these color looks AMAZING!
After testing it,
i have wear it out for about a week or so,
and as a conclusion,
i would say this is definitely a good product in terms of it's price and pigment and color.
It cost NO IRRITATION at all !
People always talking bad about stuff from the dollar store, especially cosmetics,
just because they are cheap. $1.
But i personally find them great, and some product actaually works a lot better than the ones form drugstore.
And nonetheless i love dollar store as every time you go it is like a treasure hunt kinda trip as you will never know what good stuff you will find. =D
I love this blush!

UPDATE!!
After using this for a couple of weeks,
i realized that this brush is not very long lasting.
I would recommend you to wear this
if you are only going out for a dinner or something quick (e.g: selfie HAHA).
if not you will need to re-apply it.
But still,
considering the price, size and pigment,
It is indeed a great product.
*just need to re-apply it once or twice a day tho*
