Sydney Grace Time Stops Blush Review & Swatches

Time Stops

Sydney Grace Time Stops Pressed Blush ($9.00 for 0.25 oz.) is a soft, medium pink with moderate warm undertones and a satin finish. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer to the point where I’d advise using a lighter hand to pick up product initially and building up as necessary (to avoid over-applying–it is always easier to add more than to take it away!).

The texture was soft, lightly powdery in the pan but blendable and easy to work with on bare skin or over foundation. I noticed the color darkened about half a shade to a full shade when layered over bare skin, so you’ll want to apply over more matte or just-set-with-powder skin to get truer-to-pan color. It lasted well for nine hours before fading visibly on me.
