And for the price point, this is an affordable palette that can get the job done.Use the deepest shade to sculpt, lightest shade to brighten and the shimmer cream to illuminate for a glowing complexion Ingredients However, this definitely isn’t a bad product. Since I have a large make up collection, this doesn’t really do much to add anything new or exciting to it. ![]() It is okay: it performs fairly well on the face, the colors are pretty, but it’s something that’s already been done before. Also, if you don’t have much make up yet, than this might be for you as it does give you a three-in-one product that you can get a lot of use out of if this is your first blush to own. This is a great palette for everyday or for people who aren’t into wearing tons of make up. ![]() Because that is definitely a good thing about this palette: the shades work together very well.įull face this gives a nice and wearable peachy cheek look. The blush shade nicely ties everything together. The highlight is nice, but applied to the face it seems to lose the warm peachy glow and appears more cool toned. As you can see the sculpt shade looks quite patchy and is barely noticeable, even on my fair skin. Since the texture of these is quite powdery when you apply them with a brush, it can be easy to pick up too much or make a mess. It’s pretty, but nothing mindblowingly different from what is already out there. The highlight is pretty, but I have many highlights that are similar in a single pan: it’s not a very stand out shade. The sculpt shade is almost sheer and is the least pigmented of the three. The SwatchesĪs you can see, the swatches are okay, but no more than that. This shade is a tad powdery when apply with a brush, but it has a nice pigmentation and is easily blended out. The final shade, define, is a peachy coral shade that appear fully matte in the pan, but has a hint of scene in it when swatched. It isn’t pigmented or dark enough to truly make a difference and it’s too dark to work as a blush on me. It’s more of a nontour than a contour if you’d ask me. I already said it in my video: I don’t think this does much sculpting at all. The shade that intrigued me the most was the sculpt shade. This is a good subtle everyday highlight. It isn’t overly glittery and not too intense as far as highlights go. The highlight shade in the palette is a light glowy peach tone. Moreover, out of the two palettes available, I felt that this palette was the only one of which the ‘sculpt’ shade might actually do some sculpting. It’s not too orange, nor too pink: a good in between. It is much more of a coral tone with lots of pink, which makes this a very wearable peach toned palette. My main reason for option for Play it Peach was the color scheme. Of course Essence is geared towards a younger clientele, so that explains why, but that doesn’t mean that the packaging has to be this cheap. To me, this mostly looks more like children’s make up than anything else. It is flimsy, it is cheap and it looks that way too. Let’s not beat about the bush: I don’t like this packaging. ![]() It retails for €3.99 at local drugstores in Europe. Especially since this is a supposed to be a do-it-all palette with a one-stop-shop for your blush, contour and highlight. I thought that for spring summer the peach variety would be best and it also had shades that appealed to me most. I have the peach toned version, but this also comes in a pink tone. In total Essence does 2 of these palettes. Which is why I am bringing you a full review of the new Essence Blush Play Sculpting Blush Palette today.Įssence Blush Play sculpting blush palette Play it Peach Also, there is only so much make up you can try on in one go and that meant that I wasn’t able to show all of the products on my face in that video. Usually when I try products for a while longer I will truly be able to tell how I feel about a product.
