Spotlight: Chi Chi blushes.

I have two of these, and in comparison with the eyeshadow I have... they're made of win!  I love them both.
I have the blush powder in Burning Up, and a "Sheer Colour Cream" in Va Va Va Voom (this is code for a cream blush).

Price: I paid 4.95 for both, because it was buy one get one free and already on clearance. I wouldn't have paid anymore, at all.

What I think: These are great.  The powder blush is small, only as big as their eyeshadow which are a good size for an eyeshadow, but small for a blush.  It comes in the same square plastic compact, and this is disadvantageous as it's hard to pick up a lot of the colour.  It's pretty sheer, but that's okay because I'm a bit heavy handed.
The cream blush is sheer too, but they've named it that for a reason I suppose.  It's a bit shimmery, but not too overpowering.  It has good staying power and is build-able which I like.  However, it's only 1.7g of product, and it does contain paraben which is a huge no.

The packaging feels cheap on the cream blush, and as I mentioned before, it is only 1.7g.  The powder is 3g like their eyeshadow. 

3.5/5.
