Benefit Bella Bamba Blusher on Skin and an Absolute OMG Disastrous Moment!

Bella Bamba Benefit

If you have seen my previous swatches for this new Bella Bamba,you might now be waiting to see how it turns out on skin too!

The texture is quite pigmented on cheeks, one swipe and you get colors already.

You can’t quite see it in picture, but it is quite a lot if person.

I get a pinkish peach on my skin. You have to be really light-handed though.

When I swiped it 2x on my cheeks, it was way too much and I had to dust it off because I looked like a monkey’s buttock!

When I am done and about to close the lid of my blush…and disaster just happened in the split second!

I swear I looked like this!

I crushed the corner of Bella!!!! 🙁

How did it happen?

The bad part about the flip top is…the edge of the top tends to bend in, and you can easily crush the lid into your blusher when you are closing without looking.

Darn!

The lesson is: Always place the brush back or at least the plastic casing back to the top of the blusher before closing the lid.

Even if you accidentally hit it that way, you still have protection!

So, be extra careful!

Thanks so much for the heads up! Didn’t realise how much of a hassle it is. Unlike many, I actually liked the lift up cover of the box. And now I’ve seen yours, I’m not so sure about loving Bella Bamba 🙁

sorry for that crushed part :/ i can totally imagine and feel the horror.

i think it’ll be more practical if the flip top comes with a magnetic closure instead of that two flaps at the side. takes more effort to close, like those birthday cake boxes haha.

Paris B: Stay positive first!!! 😛 the only reason i will love a lift up cover is because the cover can never go missing. LOL

Ee Von: Yeah i hate closing birthday boxes too, i can NEVER get it right!

Oh no, I feel your pain!! It’s OK, just use it every day until you don’t see the dent anymore! That’s what I would do. Great blog post.
