Rare Beauty Lucky Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Review & Swatches

Lucky

Rare Beauty Lucky Soft Pinch Liquid Blush ($20.00 for 0.25 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark fuchsia pink with cool, blue undertones and a dewy sheen. It had intense color coverage to the point where a little went a long way, so you’ll want to follow the brand’s guidance to use “one to two dots” per cheek (I’d even say start with one and see how that goes–a light dot, too).

As a result, I had more consistent and foolproof results when applied some to the back of my hand and used a brush or fingertip to diffuse it on my skin. The first time I applied it (which is in the photos), I applied a dot to my cheek and used a fingertip to blend, which wasn’t quite as even in end result as I would have wanted. Subsequent applications went better, thankfully!

The liquid blush had a lightweight, thin, and more emollient serum-like texture that slid well over skin but didn’t seem to lift up my foundation but also worked well over bare skin. It wore well for nine hours before fading noticeably on my skin.

The blush is supposed to have "long-lasting color pigments" that last "all-day" where "a little goes a long way." That being said, they also say it "blends and builds beautifully," though when one looks at the "how to" instructions, I could see that being achievable as they actually say to remove excess and then use one or two dots of product on each cheek. The line-up has includes four shades in a true, flat matte finish and four shades in a lightly, dewy finish.

Like a lot of the liquid products in the brand's range, they have a lot more slip and feel more serum-like, but a little did go a long way with respect to pigmentation. First and foremost, to control application, I would recommend dotting (lightly!) once or twice per cheek but I would work one cheek at a time, especially with the matte finish. I also felt using a sponge or brush worked well for diffusing and spreading about the blush better than fingertips when working over a base as fingertips seemed to leave slight imprints and seemed more prone to lifting up product.

When in doubt, use the least amount possible! I liked dabbing a bit on the back of my hand and using a fluffy, duo-fiber brush to apply to cheeks, which gave me a better diffusion with less chance of lifting up base product. This method worked best with the dewier finish blushes as there was enough playtime, but the matte blushes dried down faster and I had to use more product to keep it malleable on the back of my hand. The dewy finish shades have a light sheen but dry down enough that they don't slide around during wear. The matte shades fully dry down.

They wore between eight and nine hours on me before showing signs of fading. Though I haven't been able to find a clip I can reference specifically to it, I've had multiple readers state that the brand owner (Selena Gomez) has mentioned that the packaging was designed to be easier to open. I found that to be true of the flattened, knob-like tops found on the liquid blushes, as it took little pressure to twist open.
