VIVO Baked Blush: Peaches & Cream


This is another product that has been making its way round peoples' blogs - VIVO's Baked Blush in Peaches & Cream.

 VIVO BAKED BLUSH IN PEACHES & CREAM; RRP £4 FROM SELECTED TESCOS & VIVO ONLINE.

VIVO is a budget brand where their prices range from £1.50 to £6.00 which means that it can suit anybodys price range.  They stock cosmetics from eyeshadows to eyebrow kits, eyelashes to baked blushes. You can always pretty much find something from their range which is just screaming your name.

I picked up their Baked Blush in Peaches & Cream because I thought it would be great for giving my skin a nice, healthy glow during the summer months - or in my case, when I go to America for a few weeks in August. It would also be perfect for those winter months as well without looking too umpa lumpa orange.

The packaging isn't anything too special - it's a little upmarket from normal budget beauty brands like Natural Collection from Boots for example. The metallic look definitely does make it stand out from all the other budget beauty brands which is a bonus.

As the blush is baked, it comes in a dome shape which is just ideal for getting the product onto your brush as it picks it up a lot easier. It also means that it would last longer than if it was flat.


"A stunning blush with pink undertones to give all over warmth and colour to your complexion"

In the pan, the blush appears to be a mixture of both a sold peach with some pink tones throughout and when swatched, I find that the blush takes on a more orange toned peach which is just as nice. I find that this shade is rather flattering on my skin as it provides a more healthy looking glow rather than an obvious pink on the cheeks. Especially when in the coming months, my foundation will be replaced by either a BB cream or a powder. The staying power of this is just amazing - it is still visible after a long day as it gradual fades as the day goes on instead of doing a total varnishing act.

Overall, I am rather pleased with this baked blush! Not only is it just £4 - you get a surprising 8g of the product which means that you are definitely getting your moneys worth! 

 I cannot wait to try out more of their baked products!

Have you tried this product?

  4. I adore Vivo, I literally only tried it for the first time a couple weeks back and I'm amazed :D The baked blushes are so cute. I wanted this shade but at the time the baked sets were the same price, so I had a baked blush and 4 shadows :D

    1. That's a bargain - getting a baked set for the same price. My local Tesco's doesn't stock their Baked Sets but I'm sure I'll have a ponder at their website for them ;) I have some upcoming VIVO posts being posted in the next few days, so stay tuned for them :) xoxo
