Given my love for blush, I cannot believe that this is only my second Stila one. Stila is pretty popular for their blushes, especially their Colour Convertibles. Another one that I have not tried. Tsk tsk.
My favourite shade of blush is coral. Pinks are often too cool for my warm skin tone, which is why I like sticking to corals. I squealed with delight when I saw this.
To be honest, I don’t really understand what the blush meant by self-adjusting. It states that the one-shade-fits-all blush will react to each individuals’ pH to create the perfect, personalised shade every time. How does a shade adjust itself to my skin? This blush packs quite a punch in pigment, and could very well be too strong for those who have very fair skin. Oh don’t mind me. The skeptic’s talking again 😛
Other than that, it’s a beautifully pigmented coral blush with just the right amount of shimmer. A light hand would suffice in picking up the colour for the cheeks. This was the only blush I brought with me to the ABBW, and I reckoned it worked well 🙂

Gio: Thanks Gio! *blush* 😀
It’s gorgeous! From the pan, I expected it to be a light pink though. 🙂
Milktea: It’s the light. I tried tweaking the colours on Photoshop to get it to show the real colour but to no avail. It’s definitely coral 😉
The blush looks fantastic on you and love the lipstick too!
