Daniel Sandler Watercolour Blush Review


I recently purchased this Watercolour Blusher by Daniel Sandler in shade 'Gentle' from an app called Depop, if you don't know it, it's basically ebay and instagram in one,  for around £6 (RRP 15.50) and to be honest, what made me want to purchase it, was the packaging. I'm a sucker for nice packaging (YSL, I'm looking at you). 


First of all, you have to shake this really well before using it otherwise the pigment separates from the liquid and it comes out really oily (although they are oil free..). This blush is very very pigmented and a little on your cheeks will go a very long way so this little bottle will go a long way. The shade I had (gentle) is a peach-y pink with a hint of brown.

Bottom: one drop of the Watercolour Blush
Top: blended in drop of the Watercolour Blush

When I first received this, I didn't really like this product and couldn't really get along with it. I've now found that the easiest way to apply this blush is the put a drop of the blush (shake it first!) on my finger and dot it on the apple of my cheek and use my Real Techniques Expert Face Brush to blend it in. The only thing I dislike about the Daniel Sandler Watercolour Blush is that it seems to take off my foundation under the blush which is a little annoying but other than that, it's great!


This product is very buildable so can be used for a little 'pop' on your cheeks, or can be built up by reapplying for even more colour.
