Review: Josie Maran Argan Cream Blush


Price: 22.00
By: Meg

So far, on my natural beauty adventure, I have been really surprised by the cosmetics more than anything. I really thought that natural cosmetics would have a sub-par quality when compared to my ol' Sephora stand-bys. The quality of the brands i have tried so far has really blown me away. if you haven't given clean cosmetics a try DO IT! You won't be disappointed.

I bought a very special Earth Day package from one of my favorite brands: Josie Maran. Amongst some other wonderful makeup items, this package contained a compact of Josie's Argan Cream Blush.
This blush has become a fast favorite of mine. The color I have is called "Sunrise" ad at first glance I thought it might be too dark for my light skin. I used it an found that it is just a perfect shade of pink. In fact, I have since seen this color on a wide variety of skin colors and it seems to look fantastic on everyone!
The blush goes on so light an blends so amazingly well into my skin. I also love that it gives my skin a bit of a glow too since it is sheer. Because it is a cream blush, it never looks powdery or cakey. The look it gives is very subtle and it's easily touched up over mineral makeup as well. This cream is very versatile too. Megan and I both use it on our lips and cheeks for a bit of color. I usully dab a bit o my lips an then cover it with a sheer gloss because the color is pretty matte since it was intended as a blush.
This blush also contains (our favorite) Argan oil. While you are wearing the blush, it is also moisturizing your skin. So even when you remove it, your skin looks beautiful.
I'm so sad to see the bottom of the compact starting to peek through he blush. Well, time to restock I guess!
