Hi everyone, today I’m comparing the new Tower 28 GetSet Matte Powder Blush & Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Bouncy Matte Blush - side by side. I break down the application, finish, pigmentation, wear time and performance - all on my mature, dry skin! Hopefully this will help you decide which matte powder blush is right for you.
Which blush do you prefer? Let me know down in the comments!
Thanks for watching 💕
Love Carmel xx
