Daniel Sandler Watercolour Fluid Blusher Review

"Where the hell am I going to get this blush?" I pondered to myself one day in early January 2015, watching excessive amounts of Youtube videos about this "new" formulation of blush. Not only is it not available at my current haunts (Sephora, Beautymark, Hudson Bay, Shopper's Drug Mart, Murale) but I don't even have the first clue where you could get it in Canada. Lucky for me, I have ordered a few items online from the UK seeing we are basically sister Countries...BFF's really.... I have never been charged any type of duty or brokerage on arrival, thanks UK...you're awesome. I decided to order this blush directly from DanielSandler.com.

Daniel Sandler Watercolour Fluid Blusher Cherub

I know that in the beauty blogging world, these blushes are old news, but again, I don't want to give my review without an adequate trial. I ordered this blush in the most popular shade "Cherub" to be safe, then popped a few sample sizes into my cart including Soo Pretty, Flush, and Hot Totty which I will swatch for your viewing pleasure below. Each of the full size blushes are $15.50 which can be safely doubled to come up with a Canadian Value. Each of the sample shades were an additional $2.00 but seriously.. sample blushes...best idea ever! This site also has Paypal as a payment option so essentially it was an amazing transaction between me and Mr. Sandler.

I received these beauties in the mail about 2 weeks later. I was surprised by the packaging, expecting to just receive my blush, but they came in a little reusable makeup bag with a concealer brush to boot...what!

Amazeballs, I don't conceal currently so I have not had an opportunity to give this little brush a try but it was a kind gesture.

The blush itself is pure liquid as the title suggests and this was a new concept for myself. A good shaking is in order before even thinking about putting this blush on. The bottle has a dropper style top to slow the flow of what come out. Place a single drop directly on a blush brush or as I do, on the back of my hand for stippling on to the cheek. One drop at a time is all you need, this shiz is super pigmented. Depending on the look and the colour I am going for, you can add more. This is a silicone based fluid so the finish is soft and ethereal. Really angelic looking as the "cherub" name would suggest. It is long wearing, it requires a good scrub to remove from the back of my hand after application. Thinking about other liquid blushes I own, Benefit Cheek Stains..these are nothing alike in terms of feel and formulation.

As a side note, if you order the sample sizes, use them up first as they tend to dry out as there is only a little fluid in the tiny squeeze bottle.

Would I purchase this blush again? Absolutely. It is lovely and a perfect blush to add to the collection as it is so different from everything else I own.
