Canmake Cheek & Cheek often featured in Japanese beauty page as the most popular drugstore blush-on after Cream Cheek & Glow Fleur Blush-on. The blush-on is encased in a clear plastic case equipped with a synthetic brush which feels so soft. Product ingredients & information is written at the back side of the casing but unfortunately it's written in Japanese. However, you might follow the diagram shown for how-to instruction.

 

The texture of both blush-on shade is powdery-soft; as mentioned earlier the Cheek & Cheek is enriched with Squalane & Jojoba Oil to keep the cheek supple, whereas Hyaluronic Acid helps to moisten the skin so Cheek & Cheek won't easily create dry patches and drying out your skin. The glitter is finely milled and doesn't obviously shimmer on the skin upon application. Candy Flower pigmentation is subtly-pigmented yet gives radiant glow on your cheek. The Pink shade is a bit pale and subdued for warm-tone skin like mine but the Coral-Orange on the right side flaunts a healthy-flush finish. Staying power is average 4-5 hours and Cheek & Cheek is fragrance-free.

My Verdict?

Cheek & Cheek is screaming for Kawaii~ Even though the Cheek & Cheek product doesn't echo much comparing to Cream Cheek but it's worth the try; the powdery texture feels so soft while gives radiant & subtle finish. If you're looking for healthy flush with powdery-subtle finish you might turn over to this product. Unfortunately, the Pink blush doesn't deliver much color on the skin, it gives only subdued color comparing to the Orange shade. I guess people with fairer-tone skin will suit more with the pale Pink. I addition, I might say that the tiny applicator brush doesn't help much; the tiny size doesn't disperse the color evenly so I usually end up using slated blush-brush or medium-size brush. Another tips as already written in Canmake website: by applying Cheek & Cheek after Cream Cheek as base color. (Note: the shade color above doesn't deliver real life color since the lightning during the photo shoot was clear-bright weather, you may check other review here as comparison) Thank you for reading and have a nice looong weekend ♥
