Wink wink, nudge nudge? Yup. That’s exactly how we feel when we share our insider knowledge about Winky Lux’s Cheeky Rose Cream Blush.
For starters, it’s cool rose “Tea Time” hue looks so natural on our cheeks that people constantly tell us we’re glowing, followed by the query: what are using on your skin? And while we’d like to say we’re just born this way and keep this makeup gem all to ourselves, it’s too good not to share.
Made with carnauba wax and vitamin E, the blush melts seamlessly into our skin, leaving our cheeks with a pretty, flush effect. We can apply as little or as much as we like too, as its creamy formula makes it easy to layer on. All it takes is a swipe of the blush on our fingertips, or an angled brush when we have time, to achieve the coveted glow. And it’s just as effective on our clean skin as it is over top of our favourite foundation.
But perhaps the prettiest part is the product itself. Nestled inside a small pod with a gold base and a clear lid, the rose-shaped blush looks like a petite single-flower floral arrangement. It’s clean too and not just in its perfect form. The vegan formula is paraben, phthalate, sulfate and gluten-free and has not been tested on animals. Available in an additional four shades—“Crown’s” warm rose, “Dodgy’s” neutral mauve, “Knickers’” cool fuchsia and “Brilliant’s” peachy coral—we’ve got multiple, colourful options should we want them. Now aren’t you glad we shared? Wink wink. Nudge nudge.
