List of Ingredients

Swatch
"Sweet Lang" is a cool toned natural pink on fair skin and pale pink on medium to deep skin. 

In Action
My Take
I expected "Sweet Lang" to be a matte pink blush with zero shimmers but upon looking closely at the pan and swatches, I realized that there are microshimmers in it. But I'm not disappointed though and it's totally fine with me since they are not the chunky type of spackles. They don't even look obvious in these photos. What I see is how flattering the shade is on my light-medium skin tone. Literally, I felt youthful when I saw the photos and I totally get why "Sweet Lang" is the name of the shade, because I look sweet. 

Pigmentation is good, in fact you need to be careful because you could end up getting too much with just one swipe. It does tend to be powdery so you better tap off that excess before application.
Staying power is on the average, especially on my oily skin. Oil starts seeping on the three hour mark so there's definitely a need to reapply.

I was not happy about the packaging though. It comes in a plastic magenta compact and the transparent covering easily came off which I tried to remedy by taping it on. However, since it tended to come off every now and then, it kept opening up in my bag. It got contaminated and I started seeing molds on the surface. I had to chuck it, even if I barely made a dent on the star-embossed surface. Sayang! But I loved the blush itself and honestly I am still thinking about repurchasing in the future. Although, if the same thing happens about the covering, I will just try to depot it and not tape it on. 
I love Vice Ganda's products in general, especially the Dual Finish Foundation which I have yet to review in this blog. If only the blushes came in sturdier packaging like the foundation.

Will I buy it again? Yes, despite the blunder with the packaging. 
Will I recommend it? Yes I will. If I get asked about blushes at this price point, I would definitely mention this one. 

I have also reviewed the Vice Cosmetics Good Vibes Lipsticks in the past.
