MeMeMe/Poppy Tint/Cheek Tint

I've actually had this make-up for a while but I've only just got round to using it after using up the last of my current blusher.

 

 

 

This is actually the first time I've used anything from MeMeMe Cosmetics, what initially attracted me to this was the fact that it looked (and sounded) like a dead ringer for my beloved Benefit Posietint!

 

At a bargainous £5.50 its also a fraction of the price, but does it cut the mustard?

 

In short, yes, it does and as far as dupes go it's a pretty good one!

 

Before I go off on a tangent, its probably worth explaining that I'm not a fan of powder blush and I prefer to use cream or gel versions.

 

I used to use a Ruby & Millie one before swapping to Benefit a few years ago, generally I find cream or gel blusher easier to apply and blend and I personally think that it looks a lot more natural, but this is just my humble opinion of course.

 

 

Anyway, back to Poppy Tint . . .

 

Like the Benefit Posietint, this 'stain' can be used on cheeks and lips, I've only ever used it on my cheeks so unfortunately I can't comment on how effective it is as a lip stain.

 

 

 

 

 

The blush is easily applied using the brush applicator and the product itself is what I'd call a 'medium' consistency, not too runny that its any danger of slipping off (yes, I'm looking at you Benetint!) and not to thick that it's impossible to rub in.

 

This is supposed to be 'petal pink' coloured and it reminds me a bit of dark pink rose petals.

 

 

For emphasis this is a swatch of Poppy Tint against Posietint ...

As you can see from the image above, Poppy Tint is slightly darker than Posietint, its more of a fuchsia shade but this doesn't bother me too much and I certainly don't think it looks any darker on my skin either.

 

 

 

 



Please don't be alarmed, you won't end up with a big pink splodge on your face, this is what you get when you're trying to multi-task in a morning!

 

Usually I'd rub in straight away but it stayed on my skin for a few minuets while I was faffing with my phone, the sheer, shimmery effect is the final result you get.

 

See, that's quite a nice, natural blush that leaves you with a nice little glow :)

 

 

All in all I would definitely repurchase this, I also noticed that they had a few liquid highlighters for sale in the style of Sunbeam and High Beam so I'd be keen to give these a try too!

 

You can purchase this from Superdrug or online at www.mememecosmetics.co.uk

 

***FYI: It looks as though they've re branded since I purchased mine and Poppy Tint is now called Cupid's Kiss, which I actually think is a much nicer name!***
