ColourPop Pitaya Pressed Powder Blush ($10.00 for 0.28 oz) is a rich, medium-dark pink with cool, bluish undertones and a matte finish. It didn’t apply smoothly to my arm at first, but applied to my face with no problems – it’s such an odd formula in that regard!

formula overview
$10.00/0.28oz. – $35.71 per ounce
The formula is said to apply “smoothly” and have a “natural and healthy blush” that “lasts long” and “can be layered to your desired intensity.” It is a light to moderately powdery powder blush with semi-transparent to semi-opaque buildable color payoff. The texture feels drier, thinner and while it feels silky I found that powder blush type can be difficult to blend evenly over skin depending on skin type or base preferences. The drier the skin/base, the better the formula blended, but natural oils or slips caused the blush to apply unevenly and be difficult to blend. The average wearing time for me was between seven and eight hours.
