Review: JOJO Stereo Feminine Blush in #04 Salmon Pink

♫ Donghae & Eunhyuk (Super Junior) - Love That I Need ft. Henry

Blush! That's one of the most vital secrets for the perfect dolly makeup look, and you'll never go wrong with a sweet pink shade. I recently received this lovely little blush, JoJo Stereo Blush in Salmon Pink to review from kkcenterhk, so let's see how it'll help me achieve that sweet blushing pink look. (◡‿◡✿)

The packaging is pretty simple. The blush is housed inside a black plastic casing with a see-through faceted window, which makes it easy to see the colour of the blush. Although it is made from plastic and very lightweight, the snap closure is very secure, so you don't have to worry about it accidentally falling open. It does feel a little fragile (due to its lightness), so it'd be best not to drop it. (~。~;) The bottom of the casing shows the product name and expiry date. The blush shade does not have a name, only a number, which is #04.

JOJO Stereo Feminine Blush in Salmon Pink
This is what the blush colour looks like in the pan - a vibrant milky pink reminiscent of strawberry milk. The blush name Salmon Pink is pretty spot on, according to this definition, but for me, salmon usually brings to mind something with more of a coral/orange hue. (⌒_⌒;) Anyway, whatever its name, the colour is indeed very lovely and doll-like.

Mirror and brush compartment underneath!
One thing that got me pleasantly surprised was the compartment hidden underneath the blush pan, which contains a mini brush and mirror! I was wondering why the blush casing was so thick, then it occurred to me that maybe there was something under it. Tadaa! A nifty little hiding place was revealed. (¬‿¬)

Heavy swatch (using finger) and blended out
The blush is fairly pigmented, so you'll have to be careful not to overdo it when using a brush to pick it up. If you're very fair, a single swipe should be just right for each cheek. For me, 2-3 light swipes would be just nice after blending out.

Scratchy brush with quite a lot of fallout >_<
One thing to note: the mini brush included isn't very good quality (it feels scratchy and shed hairs), plus it creates a lot of fallout, so I highly recommend you use a proper blush brush for application instead.

In the pictures below, I used 3-4 swipes in order for the colour to show up better. (It actually looked super bright and pink, I had to blot my cheeks after taking the pics, lol.) As mentioned above, 2-3 light swipes is enough for that perfect pink flush.

✓ Pros: Pigmented colour, lightweight, comes with brush and mirror, small travel-friendly packaging, clear window lets you see blush shade inside.
✗ Cons: Plastic casing feels fragile, mini brush is no good.

What a gorgeous color! It looks great on you, as well as, for some odd reason it kind of reminds me of MAC packaging.
