I keep a running mental list of makeup that looks really, really natural because 1) I still hold out hope that one day my tomboy friend Cindy will see the light and ask me to do a makeover on her (DARE TO DREAM), and I know that unless whatever I do looks really natural she’ll completely freak out; and 2) I occasionally run into peeps who ask for product recs for “no makeup” makeup looks.
The new Freedom System Fusion Blush & Illuminator in #204 by Inglot just joined that list. For $10.40 you get a medium pinkish beige with a matte finish and a lighter pinkish beige illuminator/highlighter. Both add subtle color and can be used to contour the face without the finished product looking too “done.”
For me this is a weekend blush — something to wear on bare skin or a little tinted moisturizer. I pop a layer of the matte on the apples of my cheeks and a smidgen of the illuminator on my upper cheekbones, and it’s off to brunch and/or errands. 🙂
#204 is one of four new Fusion Blushes ($10.40 each, Freedom System Blush Palette sold separately for $8), so if pinkish beige isn’t your thing there’s also…
- #201 — an intense blue-based fuchsia pink paired with a muted illuminating pastel pink
- #202 — a rosy blush with a highlighting pink
- #203 — a rusty apricot with a frosted soft peach highlighter
The new Inglot Fusion Blushes are available now online and coming to Inglot counters, boutiques and select Macy’s stores January 2014.

This duo is right up my alley. I love such natural looking colors. And I love Inglot comsetics.

Are you going to swatch the rest? Pretty please!!!
Sylvia says
Gosh, that is pretty. #203 also looks enticing.

Oh! sorry… you got only #204 🙁
Allison says
I still haven’t try anything from Inglot and that duo looks great for everyday and the price is right too. Just wish they were available in stores here in the Boston area, hopefully one of these days
Chelsea says
These are gorgeous! I’ve been using mostly cream or liquid blushes lately, but these make me want to branch out.

These look really nice!

I personally am a big fan of the Inglot Freedom System because it allows me to create my own personal naked palette. These blushes seem really nice I’m seriously considering adding them to my collection!
Thanks for the lovely review!

That first pic reminded me of naked flushed blush and highlighter 🙂
Icaria says
I have this big Inglot store 5 min away from my office but for some reason never tried anything from the brand. One of these for a nice week end look just might be a nice intro to the brand. Thanks for the review! 🙂
Danielle says
Gorgeous! I am loving Inglot lately, so I may need to add these to my collection.
Sarah says

Natalye says

Ankita@corallista says
This shade might be a little pale for me, I’m excited to try out #202 and #203!
fancie says
I love the design but this color would not work for me at all lol. I’m really interested in seeing swatches of the orangey one though!
