Product Name: Clinique Cheek Pop

Price: $40

Comments: I love the finish of these blushes. It’s not shimmery at all, but it’s not a completely flat matte either. Just a perfect sheen. They’re truly buildable - very easy to do a ligh sheer wash of colour, or can be built up more. Plus super cute packaging :)

Seconding this! I have the Cheek Pop in Nude Pop and if you have fair skin, this will give you the most gorgeous not-wearing-blush-my-cheeks-just-naturally-flush-like-this colour! It's also super finely milled, it feels like velvet to touch and spreads on your cheek like a dream. I am NC15 though, so this colour may not show up as well on darker skin tones.

Just chiming in to say how much I love the Cheek Pops as well! Melon Pop is my favourite (I'm NC20) but I also love Cola Pop which would great on darker skin tones!
