Those of you who come here regularly probably know by now that there are certain trends that I just don’t get – and HD (High Definition) make up is one of them. I just don’t see the difference between my ‘regular’ foundation and a HD one when I put it on. So you know I wasn’t jumping for joy when I received a few Make Up For Ever HD Microfinish Blush ($25) to try out. I mean, could they be really any different than a regular ‘non-HD’ blush?
According to the MUFE folks, there are a few things that make this blush HD:
- “The unique and innovative “second skin” cream formula shows no texture to appear exceptionally natural.
- The extremely fine granulometry of the formula allows the product to be invisible to the high def camera and the naked eye.
- A combination of mattifying and reflecting powders create a soft focus effect on cheeks to blur imperfections.
- For the most natural feel on skin, the formula is elastic and supple, allowing it to go on smoothly.
- Thanks to special evaporating oils that disappear on skin but leave pigments behind, the formula is long- lasting and stays put all day.”
I don’t know about this as far as “HD” makeup goes, but all I can say is that this blush ROCKS! It goes on so smooth and blends so easily it looks like you were born blushing and never stopped. The color stays on even through a heat wave (and if you’re in NYC, you know I had a chance to test this out lately!) and is available in 14 shades.
