Origins Pinch Your Cheeks Gel Blush

Great product, you will never buy regular blush again!

I tried this product because I have been desperate to find a blush that does make my cheeks break out. I tend to get rosacea from blush powder and also the creme blush. I tried this product when Origins was having a sale and I am in love! It is an expensive item I admit. But the product lasts a really long time because you only need a small amount. It takes some practice using it, getting it on in the right spots before it sets up. I put is on after my tinted moisturizer but before my foundation powder. It gives you a really nice rosy glow without looking like you have a bunch of makeup painted on. It is so natural looking. My only complaint is the product tends to leak more than you need. So it can get everywhere and seems a little wasteful. Overall I recommend this product 100%.

Origins Pinch Your Cheeks Gel Blush makes me glow!

Origins Pinch Your Cheeks Gel Blush has been a little secret of mine for several months. It makes me look thiner when I apply it to the apples of my cheeks and wipe away any that goes underneath the bone area on my cheek. It also makes me look well rested. I have been told that I look like I am glowing when I wear this product. It makes me look like I worked out very hard for an hour. I am always a little fearful when I get ready to put it on, but the trick is to prep your face correctly. Cleanse, tone, use a smoothing treatment (I recommend Origins A Perfect World White Tea skin guardian), and moisturize, being sure to get a little moisturizer rubbed in to the tips of your fingers. Then take a very tiny amount of the product, dab your pointer fingers together and rub it into the apples of the cheeks very quickly, before the product has time to set up.

Cheek blush, in Coralberry

4

This is the first gel blush that I have ever used. I purchased Pinch Your Cheeks in Coralberry; the other colors seems a bit too strong for my olive skin tone. I'm glad I went with Coralberry because it's a lovely color. Although the tube seems very small, a little goes a long way for this product. I usually use just a pinch of the gel and gently start dabbing it on the apple of my cheek. Its fairly easy to apply, however, it does stain my fingers. The stain washes off easily but its a bit of a hassle. Also, be careful in storing this product and make sure to avoid high temperatures as this gel will start ot run and be awfully messy when you open the tube. Otherwise the gel shouldn't be a problem and you'll get more than enough uses out of this blush. I am not even halfway through the tube yet and it's been about a year since I purchased it.

A strange sounding product, but it works wonders!

I find Origins products to be extremely expensive.  Yet one of their recent promotions to buy any item and then get a full-sized sample free with free shipping finally lured me in.  I ended up getting one of the cheaper products that I could find.  The Origins Pinch Your Cheeks in Coralberry.  I thought perhaps that the shade would be a bright pink.  It is a bright pink when you first put it on your fingertips but as you apply it to your cheeks, it lightens up.  I must say that it sounds strange to have a liquid gel as a blush, but just a little bit goes a long way.  I literally feel like I have a rosy glow after applying this product.  At the little amount that I applied and how much rosiness I had in my cheeks, this tube will probably last me at least a year.  Origins products always impress me because they are made without animal ingredients.  If you purchase on-line, you also can choose free gift wrapping.  Origins is pricier but definitely worth it!

Incredible wear!

It's a little bitty silvery tube about the length of my pinky. Don't dismiss this as a pricey, mini dustcatcher on a dresser top. Origins Pinch Your Cheeks Gel Blush is a tried-and-true beauty powerhouse. I discovered Origins products in the 90's when I was doing home-care aide work, and I had for a patient a proud elderly lady who harangued me daily about wearing makeup--"at least a little rouge, you're so pale!" I could never find anything that would last a day. An aide's job is physical, hot and sweaty even during the coldest times of the year, and no matter what I was guaranteed run-off until I found Pinch Your Cheeks. My tube ended up lasting a good year or more with daily use! It takes hardly a dot of gel the size of a comma to blend into a sheer rose wash that wore through a day and a night--without smearing, streaking, or fading. Nearly thirteen years later, Pinch Your Cheeks is still a staple for me in the warmer months, and is still one of the most economical products I've ever used.
