at blushgarden, we think differently about reading and writing beauty product reviews. we believe product reviews should provide you with detailed information, let the writer quickly and easily share their thoughts, and be a fun experience for all. to achieve this, we provide a ratings scale for distinct criteria, alongside traditional written comments. this format gives reviewers a way to provide an in-depth review of the same specific aspects of a product, allowing you zero in on the criteria that are most important to you.
without the need for long-form written text, everyone saves time. don’t let us discourage you from waxing poetic if you are so inclined, some people are gifted writers and should share if they want to. we just want to encourage and provide great reviews without that particular barrier to entry.
as an example, one rating criteria for foundation is formula thickness. formula thickness ranges from thin to thick. Thin might be a desired quality for you, while thick might be desired for someone else. there isn’t a right answer, only your opinion.
an added benefit to the scales is quickly seeing how a product might perform. you can identify that a product is rated highly for formula thickness without reading a lot of text. easily compare and evaluate similar products based on identical criteria. apples to apples, if you will.
we would honestly love to hear your feedback, if you have an idea for a new rating criteria, let us know! post in the feedback forum, or send us an email to .
not a review but perhaps helpful - here is a description from the source: What it is: A makeup artist- and fan-favorite foundation that delivers a photo-ready natural luminous finish and medium-to-full coverage. Who it's for: Ideal for normal to dry skin types. What it does: This high-pigment, high-performance foundation creates a flawless canvas that lasts for up to 12 hours. Makeup artists love how it feels comfortable on the skin while hiding even hard-to-cover imperfections, and how natural it looks for photos, video and special events as well as for everyday wear. It smoothes your skin's texture and visibly evens its tone while color-true pigments virtually disappear on skin for smooth, even application and blending. Shades:- Ivory: very fair with warm undertones- Rose Ivory: very fair with cool undertones- Beige Ivory: light with neutral and slightly warm undertones- Cream Ivory: very fair with neutral undertones- Sand Beige: light-medium with neutral undertones- Bamboo Beige: light with neutral undertones- Medium Ivory: light with warm undertones- Cashew Beige: light-medium with neutral, slightly warm undertones- Ecru: light with cool undertones- Suntan: medium with neutral undertones- Pecan: medium-deep with neutral undertones- Truffle: deep with neutral undertones. How to use: Shake well, then dispense a small amount onto the back of your hand and apply with a sponge or your fingertips. For best results, use after your preferred foundation primer.
