Editor's Take
If you want punchy blush that stays put, this bottle earns its shelf space, but the long wear comes from petrochemical polymers.
Four-pillar formula scores

- Clean Beauty: 8.0 / 10
- Sustainability: 5.9 / 10
The Verdict
This is a strong little color product: high pigment payoff, good grip, and a smoother finish than the price tag suggests. Trimethylsiloxysilicate helps it lock down, while Boron Nitride and Alumina soften the look so it is not just wet pigment in a tube. The catch is the base: hydrogenated polyisobutene, styrene copolymers, and silicone materials are doing the work, so the sustainability score lands far behind performance. For a budget long-wear blush, it is a smart pick, just not a green one.
