Gucci Luminous Matte Beauty Blush, which is Gucci’s has just added three new shades, to the original six shades of Gucci’s first ever powder blush!! The three shades: 07 True Pink; 08 Soft Red; and 09 Intense Plum. All of the shades in this collection are flattering. They work to energize your skin tone, giving it a fresh look, as it delivers a touch of color to your cheeks and eyes. Also, the three new shades are the perfect shades that you can wear in the summer. All of the shades in the collection can be used on both your cheeks and eyes.
You can find the New Gucci Luminous Matte Beauty Blush shades, along with the original six shades, at Nordstrom, Sephora, Saks Fifth Avenue, Harrods,and on the Gucci Website. The Gucci Luminous Matte Beauty Blush (0.19 oz./5.5g) costs $49.
The Gucci Blush comes in a pastel pink enamel compact, that has a gold star pattern on the outer cover. Gucci Blush De Beauté’s compact is a vintage-inspired gold-toned design. Inside the compact is a mirror, and the powder is embossed with Gucci written in the center. The outer box is FSC Mix, which means that “This environmental and social certification comes from the FSC, a global organization that certifies forests based on rigorous standards of responsible forest management. Certifications include “FSC 100%,” “FSC Recycled” and “FSC Mix” (which can be a blend of FSC-certified, recycled and controlled sources).” Also, the outer box has the 21 PAP symbol, which means that the box is non corrugated and can be recycled!
The Formula is considered adaptable. . Smooth powders and pigments are infused with emollient waxes to deliver buildable, long-lasting blush color and it becomes more intense when you layer the powder for more color. It is a hydrating, ultra-thin powder, which is good for all skin types because the formula is infused with shea butter, hyaluronic acid and black rose oil, so that it blends easily and gives the feeling of a second skin.
The Three New Colors (right to left) are True Pink, Soft Red and Intense Plum.
07 True Pink, a bright fresh bubble gum pink, that is trending right now-especially now that the Barbie Movie has been released.
Gucci Blush in true pink
I call this pink Fresh Barbie Bubble Gum Pink!
08 Soft Red, nothing red about it, it is more orange, a bright coral shade.
This is the shade I purchased , I love the more orange shades in the summer, especially now, as Mac Makeup has started a sunburnt look, which is created using shades like this on your cheeks, and across your nose.
09 Intense Plum, a bright magenta color that actually mimics a natural flush of color.
My final thoughts, the blush is very soft, silky, smooth, has medium pigment, and is easy to build. It is more a demi-matte because it gives a bit of glowing radiance ( somewhere between glowing and radiance) to your face. You can use all of the shades as a blush of color on your cheeks. Gucci suggests you use an angled contour brush to apply the blush to your cheeks. To apply the blush to your eyes, Gucci suggests you use a flat brush or a a medium fluffy brush, tapping off the excess powder.
