Cover Girl Classic Color Blush By Karen on Jan 04, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I like Cover Girl's Classic Color Blush. I have a soft mink shade, and it looks very becoming and natural when I apply it.

One thing I do not like about this blush is the packaging. I don't know if it is just a defect in my particular compact or if they are all made this way, because this is the first one I have tried. But the compact holding the blush closes in such a way that the tip of the blush is exposed, and the lid flips open very easily. It doesn't snap in place. If I'm taking it with me in my purse, I usually have to put a rubber band around it to keep it together.

But other than that, the blush itself is very nice. It applies easily (I use a different brush than the one that comes with it), and it does look nice when it's on my face. It also stays where I apply it without wearing off. I have detected no fragrance, and I don't really want a fragrance in my blush.

The only thing I would change is the packaging. When I'm out of my present blush (it does last a while), I intend to get more of the same. When I do, I'll see if I just had a defective compact or if they are all made this way. The blush itself is great.
