Paul & Joe Beauté: Such pretty packaging

Until recently, my interest in Paul & Joe cosmetics was zero. But for some unknown reason, the pink packaging suddenly caught my eye. I was tempted to purchase something, just so I could have it in my collection. I decided to get powder blush because that is one product that will not go bad for years (if ever?).

The packaging looks like this. Pink, with flowers, simply girlie. Makes a change from the sleek black packaging of MAC and Chanel etc.


Even the box it comes in is pretty.


What I got is called Face color #16. There are two colours in this: a slightly sparkly bronzer type shade and a neutral pink. I find that the pigmentation is not very strong so when I apply it (both shades swirled together), I just get a subtle hint of colour on my cheeks. It's one of those blushes that you can't go wrong with. It's probably not for those who like to be able to see what they put on... But for a low-key every day look or if I'm accentuating my lips, I think it's really nice.


Here's a swatch. You can hardly see the colours - this is what I mean about the pigmentation.


L to R: Swatched left shade only, right shade only, then together

Everything they have is cute but I don't think Paul & Joe will be a brand I'll be investing in too much. Once you get used to the colour spectrum offered by MAC and other big brands, the Paul & Joe selection seems a bit too small.

Do check out their website, though. They have some cute wallpapers / screensavers that you can download.
