Sleek MakeUP Blush by 3 | Flame

Sleek MakeUP is a makeup company found in UK and Ireland. I am not sure if it is available in the USA, because I purchased it on Sleek's website.

I love the packaging of the blush palette. It has a nice sized mirror, and snaps securely. The palette is made out of a sturdy plastic, but it does seem to get dirty easily as seen in the photo above.

Molton ~ Bon Fire ~ Furnace
The Blush by 3 is a blush palette that includes three blushes with similar color range or blushes that can work together. I purchased the one in Flame because I was looking for a good, affordable red blush. I loved the "Snow White" cheeks that red blush gave. I had looked into MAC's Frankly Scarlet and Tarte's Natural Beauty, but were too expensive at the moment. I found this baby for $12.49.

Molton ~ Bon Fire ~ Furnace
Although not visible in the swatches above, Molton has a slight shimmer and is more on the reddish brown side. Bon Fire is a matte red shade, and Furnace is the most shimmery blush. It looks similar to Bon Fire, but is a bit more subdued.


In the picture above, I am wearing all three blushes together. I figure I might as well mix all three together and get all aspects of it. They are HIGHLY pigmented, so you only need to tap the brush in the pan once. If not, you will look like a sunburned tourist. They do not kick back a lot of powder when you run the brush through it, which is a good thing, as this will last you a long time.

The only problem I have with this blush, is that after a few hours wear, it turns somewhat blotchy when it mixes with my natural oils (ew gross, I know), but its something I unfortunately can not avoid. 

Even though red blush is a bit tricky to master, (you can end up looking like a tomato), I find it gives a lovely touch to any makeup.
