A cream blush that stays for a very long time on my combination-oily skin? Sounds nearly impossible, right? But yes, I have found a blush that does that effortlessly and that is the MUFE HD Microfinish Cream Blush in #6 Quickie.
What I like:
- Creamy and blends well with the skin.
- Very pigmented so you only need a very little amount of product and it lasts for a very long time. A little goes such a long way.
- Intensity of the color can be built up, depending on how you want it.
- The shade #6 Quickie is a very pretty salmon pink shade, which, I think, will flatter almost any skin tone.
- One little tube can last for a very long time as you only need a miniscule amount for both the cheeks.
- Staying power is good even for my combination-oily skin. it does not slide off and almost permanent tattoo-like. Stays pretty much the whole day, it's insane!
- The scent is something I can tolerate. I can't describe it but as long as it doesn't trigger my allergic rhinitis, then I'm cool with it.
- Locally available at MUFE stores. However, they don't stock up on most products.
What I don't like:
- You have to be very careful in pumping out a product as you may get way more than what you need.
- It may seem expensive at first for it costs in between Php 1500 - Php2000 here but then again, you are paying for pigments in cream form (in my opinion) that will last you a very looooooong time.
- Since it is in cream form, it may dry easily.
Overall rating: 4/5
Will I buy again? I don't mind having to repurchase but I'm partial to powder blushes.
Tip: While some prefer using brushes when it comes to blending cream blushes, I prefer using my fingers since it helps warm up the blush making it easier to blend with the skin.

ReplyDeleteChel, true! Buhay na buhay ang pagka-pink nya. :P
ReplyDeletedelikado nanaman si chel nyan. :D
ReplyDeleteJap, coral-pink hinahanap ni Chel eh. Gastos yan for her. :P
ReplyDeletei was given two of the MUFE cream blushes samples! they were so hard to dispense the right product amount >_< and hard to blend as well...ended up looking like a clown O_O and the dried bits at the dispense mouth are so gross when i tried to pump next time using it
ReplyDeleteJennifer, oh no! So sad that you had a hard time using those blushes. :( I hope that doesn't happen to mine too!
ReplyDeletethis one looks promising! but its too expensive :/ LOL i love the pigmentation!
ReplyDeletehey i tagged you http://ibeauty-addict.blogspot.com/2011/04/tag-10-things-i-love.html
ReplyDeleteTBA, true. That's why I call it pigment in cream form. Haha! Thanks for the tag, will do it together with Hollie's tag tomorrow. :P
ReplyDeleteThis is a good pink shade. :)
ReplyDeleteScatterbrain, yup. A pretty salmon-pink shade it is. :)
ReplyDeletethis is so pretty! i am so inggit kaso i'm on a blush ban. :p
ReplyDeleteSugar, why??? C'mon, just one blush. ;)
ReplyDeleteIn the swatch photo, i see that its like pink coral-ish. i think this color suits morena skins too?
ReplyDeletebut, the price is too much :( i cant afford it as of the moment.
but, this is a nice review :) thank you so much for reviewing lots of high street stuff. im enjoying them!
Reina, it will suit morena skin tones, I think. :P I agree that the price is prohibitive but it's sooo pigmented that a full pump would be too much for both your cheeks. :)
ReplyDeleteWoow! I love the shade!
ReplyDeleteWish I can try this out but then again my skin is a bit oily and cream blushers don't blend well on my face.:(
Great review!<3
Tiffiemum, this is a good cream blush that works very well with oily skin. You gotta give it a try. :P
ReplyDeletewow so pretty!! i like to tube packaging too :)
ReplyDeleteJoice, I think it's the size of a NYX RLS. :P
ReplyDeleteang nice naman nito! kaya lang mahal :(
ReplyDeleteCrystal, super super konti lang kailangan mo and it will last pretty much the whole day so one tube will last you a super looong time. :P
ReplyDeletepammy i haven't dented my blushes yet. i have 2 unused blushes pa so no-no to more blushes hehehehe. >.<
ReplyDeleteSugar, ouch!!! I only have one blush with the dent. The rest are dent-free. Haha! :P

MissKatv, takot din ako before with cream blushes especially after my failed attempt in using cheek tints but this one's easy to blend. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, you're the third one to tag me, I guess I have to do it na asap! :P
MUFE makes the best makeup, but dang it's so expensive lol. I would call this an investment!
ReplyDeleteBecky, true! An investment indeed. :P
ReplyDeletethis is a pretty pink blush! i have thought of getting MUFE blushes many times but have never got around to it... if i see a MUFE stand again i will definitely check it out again :)
ReplyDeleteNic, go check out these blushes! I'm sure this shade will look fab on you. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the color! But I prefer powder blushes kasi I have oily skin. Thanks for the review! :) -Dawn
