AMW Reviews: L'oreal True Match Blush in Apricot Kiss

My Aunt who lives in Canada, loves makeup as much as I do knew about my passion for makeup. When my Uncle visited us a couple of weeks ago, she gave me a couple of makeup and that includes the L'oreal True Match Super-Blendable Blush in Apricot Kiss. Just by merely looking at the packaging, I can totally see that the blush shade is wearable and great for daily use! How does it fair? Is it worth the lemming? Should I purchase more from this line? Seriously, I'm not sure if it's sold down here, I haven't seen them around yet.

Pros

• shade is decent
• sheer and natural looking
  
• texture is smooth
• goes on sheer and shade is build-able
• has mirror, helps a lot on retouching
• has angled blush brush, though its not great quality, its still great for emergency touch ups
  
• price range is ok for the amount of product you get
  

Cons

• does not last long
• plastic case that looks a bit cheap
• a bit too powder so if you brush it with your blush brush, a lot of products are wasted
  

Overall

This is a very pretty warm peachy shade. This shade does remind of a bit of NARS Orgasm and Super Orgasm in between. But again, though this range is quite pretty as it caters more to people like me who loves the natural flush, I find that it does not stay long! Not even half a day which is a big no-no for me! For it's price, its not bad or if you're someone who doesn't mind retouching blush the whole day, this is an ok product to take along!

Tips

• to prevent harsh streaks, use a fluffy blush brush in application
• to use as blush: apply on apples of cheeks and blending upwards
  
• to use as a tanner: apply areas where to sun hits directly
• do not drop this blush or any other makeup! lol
• use a similar shade of cream blush prior to application of this to help make the blush stays longer
• do not swirl the blush brush too much as it's very powdery so you grab a lot of product in one swirl equals product wastage
  

Will I repurchase?

No, this is a nice blush but it's not a big WOW for me
