When I ordered my second batch of Everyday Minerals samples, I was rather apprehensive of the blush I chose because when you order items like these online, you really have to rely on the colour swatches the website provided. The problem with the Everday Minerals website was that it does not display photographs of the actual product swatch, only conceptual pictures. It became a matter of “what-the-hell-lets-just-take-a-shot” when I selected Sunday Brunch. And I have to say, it was an excellent choice.
Description:
A delicious raspberry sorbet shade that is ideal for all skin types. Just the right matte finish that you can dress up or dress down. A versatile and must have color for every occasion.
When wearing a blush, I like a little more colour on my cheeks, thus I don’t normally wear pinks (unless it’s Benefit’s Dandelion or Posietint) because they seldom show on my cheeks. I love the colour of raspberries on me, and the Sunday Brunch definitely did not disappoint. In fact, the flush the Sunday Brunch gave my cheeks was absolutely gorgeous.
A great thing about the Sunday Brunch is that the blush is incredibly pigmented, so you’d only need so little per application. As the blush came in a sample 5g jar, this is a great size to bring along when traveling.
On another note, I used the Everyday Minerals angled blush brush to apply the blush; in fact, I used it to apply all my blushes. Love it that the bristles are so soft and do not shed whenever I give it a good wash, which is once a week. If you’re looking for a good (and cheap; it’s only USD8!) blush brush, I highly recommend the angled blush brush by Everyday Minerals.

After the Sunday Brush
A sample size of the blush is USD2.50, a mini size is USD4, and a full-sized jar of the blush is USD8, which are available on the Everyday Minerals website. A sample-sized jar of the blush, which is in a 5g jar, will last you at least a month, if not two. That’s how little you’d need per application. So you can imagine how long the blush will last you if you bought the full-sized jar. Donkey years! :p It’s such great value if you ask me.
What I like about it: Highly pigmented blush, beautiful raspberry flush. Very cheap 🙂
What I did not like about it: Nothing. I love it!
I LOVE the blush on you! I am not a fan of mineral foundation but I am definitely a FAN of mineral blush!!! I love how natural it looks and how the color pops with just a few application!!!
I got Apple blush from Everyday Minerals and I’m loving it too!
Askmewhats:
Aww thanks sweets 😛 I won’t say that all mineral blush is highly pigmented though, but the ones from Everyday Minerals are. Oooh I so want one of each in the store! *shhhh!*
Rinnah:
Apple? There’s an Apple blush? I’m on it!! 😛
tht’s a nice blush. now i quite like my mineral make up too, mine is running out of stock soon. but i am using the signature mineral from local. btw, what do u do when u go travel? bring these jar babies along?
Prettybeautiful:
Blush from Signature Minerals are pretty too. I don’t really like the ones from Silk Naturals; too sheer for me. I haven’t traveled with my mineral makeup yet, but I will be this Sept, and I plan to bring a couple of small 5g blush jars along with me. Two different types – in pink/red and coral/peach. Saves a LOT of space 🙂
Looks good on you! =)
I just got my samples from Everyday Minerals today but I ordered Snooze Bar – wanted something radically different from the usual pinks & peaches. =)
And I agree! Signature Minerals has got good ones and whilst I like some Silk Naturals ones, some are way too sheer that it just doesn't appear on my skin. *sigh*
Indulgent Diva:
Yeah, it’s a waste, really, about the Silk Naturals blush. But then again, they did state that they’re sheer blush so you can’t really complain. Sigh. I prefer the blush to be more pigmented; it lasts longer that way.
Awaiting your review on the Snooze Bar before I get myself one too 😉
im going traveling a little in august as well, so i was thinking what should i bring. the mineral or just the compact powder? i still can’t figure out how not to mess the place when using the mineral powder…
Prettybeautiful:
Might as well just bring the compact powder. You don’t have to bring an extra makeup brush plus you don’t have to worry about spillage 🙂
