After 2012, the Stash Debut series is now back as a regular series, and I will continue to share my thoughts on items I purchased from brands/lines I hadn’t purchased from before. Today, let’s have a look at Cezanne!
Cezanne is a Japanese drugstore beauty brand. Launched in 1964, it will celebrate its 50th anniversary next year. The brand is known for its affordability and consistent quality. The packaging of the products is usually kept very simple. I wanted to try products from Cezanne for quite some time, and, earlier this year, I decided to go for Silk Touch Cheek in 01 Pink.
Silk Touch Cheek (¥504) was launched in Japan on October 1st, 2012, with three variations (including 01 Pink). One new variation (04 Beige Coral) was added to the lineup on April 2nd, 2013. Each variation features two shades.
01 Pink includes a moderately-pigmented antique rose pink (left) and a softly-pigmented light warm pink (right). Both shades have a velvety semi-matte finish with no shimmer. The powder is very soft and silky, and the brush is soft and easy to use. The colors have a decent staying power.
According to the application instructions on the back of the case, the shade on the left is used on top of the cheek bones, and the shade on the right is then used on top of the shade on the left and all over the rest of the cheek areas. The light warm pink shows up subtly on my light-to-medium skin tone, and the antique rose pink looks understated and elegant. The look that this variation creates is very natural and suitable for daytime wear.
Overall, this is an easy-to-use everyday blusher. It might not have a wow factor, but I am very impressed by its good quality (particularly the very smooth and silky texture of the powder). I am already thinking about trying other items from the brand, and I will certainly keep you posted on my thoughts!
