Dior Sensual (505) Rouge Blush review and swatches

formula overview

$45.00/0.22oz. – $204.55 per ounce

The formula is said to have a “silky” and “light” texture that’s long-lasting and has a “buildable” intensity. The blush had a smooth, light consistency that was finely ground, though not as silky as I would have expected, without being too powdery or pan-pressing too hard.

The majority of the shades I tested had a medium, buildable pigmentation that was hard to overdo, but could certainly be intensified for greater coverage if needed. They applied evenly and blended out easily, and they seemed to sit well on my skin and give a semi-matte finish or higher. The more shimmery shades were still of a lower standard and had a sheen rather than an obvious shimmer, resulting in a more metallic finish.

On my skin, most of the shades I tried lasted eight hours before showing any signs of fading. The powders had a gentle floral fragrance.
