Urban Decay Afterglow 8-Hour Powder Blush

This summer Urban Decay have launched a collection of 12 stunning blushers to help you get the perfect summery look.

Whether you’re after a soft nude or a bright, vibrant orange, Urban Decay’s new collection has got it sorted!

Say hello to their Afterglow 8-Hour Powder Blush, designed to offer eight hours of wearable, buildable colour.

 There is a blusher for everyone in this collection and trust me, after you’ve tried one you’re going to want them all.

I had the pleasure of trying one in the shade Quiver (love the name by the way!) which is labelled as medium red.

Firstly, I love the super shiny, gun metal grey compact (despite it being a bugger to photograph!) and the cut out fish net ‘UD’ on the lid. 

It doesn’t just look cool, it also allows you to see the colour of the blush within which is pretty handy if you have several from the same collection, saving you time rooting through them all to find the one you want.

Now, onto the blush itself.

Ok, yes It looks REALLY bright in the compact and that’s because it is.

However, because of its super soft, finely milled, blendable texture it is possible to create both a subtle and more vibrant look.

I cannot convey to you just HOW silky soft the powder is. It’s an absolute dream to work with and thanks to the formula being infused with light diffusing pigments it helps to enhance and perfect your complexion all at once.

It blends beautifully and can be built up for a stronger look without looking heavy and cakey.

Despite being initially scared of this colour Its currently my favourite blush and looks stunning with a red lip!

Urban Decay’s  collection of Afterglow 8-Hour Powder Blush is available now and cost £19 each.
