At that price, I expect to be taken to Hawaii and get a natural blush on my cheeks! 😊🏝️

That eye look is STUNNING. The blush is beautiful bur NO WAY $130 beautiful LOL!

[@Elizabeth-tm7xr]

You should do more price per gram comparing! So helpful

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

Yes

[@DeborahCarlston]

"The Tears of our enemies, presumably.". Thank you for that. Too funny! That blush is stunning on you. It's so lovely that it seems I could get this one and the rose one, and never need to buy blush again. I've checked online, and I can get them on big discount in the US too. I love this. Thank you for this review.💚

[@nancytipton7602]

Hi @DeborahCarlston, I am dying to know where I would be able to get that sweet discount here in the States, as I have fallen head over heels for a blush that I know that I dare not pay $130.00 for! Please and thank you in advance! 🪷

[@evelynrosado9711]

I bought that blush as a gift for me for mY birthday. And I love it. Expensive but I’m worthy.

[@queenb3930]

I have had this blush in my collection for years. It’s still the most beautiful blush I own and still works great!

[@gwendolinehall1386]

If you don't mind me asking, I'm curious how much you paid for it years ago, how much has 'inflation' affected the price point much?

[@melissatranfield4054]

Wow! How many years?

[@queenb3930]

@@gwendolinehall1386 I can’t remember exactly but it was way less than $130. I’m pretty sure I paid around $80-90. It was definitely before these crazy inflated prices we are seeing now. I also think I got it on sale. So maybe full price was closer to $100-110

[@queenb3930]

@@gwendolinehall1386 I replied to this once but somehow it didn’t post. I bought my blush on sale for around $80-90 in late 2020 or early 2021 timeframe. It looks and works as well today as it did when I bought it. I would definitely recommend buying it on sale though since it’s not limited edition.

[@SusanSaysSomething]

Which shade?

[@susankleinman7849]

After swearing I would not buy anything for the next couple of months I saw you today with this beauty ! And I went and bought it for £54 (£40 off) it is still expensive but not as eye watering as £94….you enticed me you lovely lady I have no discipline with a beautiful blush 🙋‍♀️🇬🇧

[@tanyawood275]

I have had this blush about 5 o 6 years maybe longer. I don't remember how much I paid for it but I can tell you it looks the same today as it did when I purchased it! Yes, it is worth the money!!! Looks wonderful on the skin and lasts (for me) until I take it off!

[@elainebines6803]

That's great news. Definitely on my birthday wish list 😉

[@CharlotteHoldcroft]

Wowwww nice!

[@lynnewright31]

Well that's good news.

[@loisen]

I have the bronzer and the rose one. The rose one is a little bit forgettable because it’s not more than a highlighter but the bronzer color looks so smooth. It’s unbelievable. I have like 80 blushes from every brand and nothing is like that.

[@CharlotteHoldcroft]

🙌🙌🙌

[@Raniasmakeupaddiction]

I absolutely love this blush! I have been using it for around 3 years and it’s going strong and no issues. Just like you, I’m absolutely lusting over shade 1. To me, it’s also worth it

[@danielletrue1027]

First and ONLY blush I ever hit pan on and plan to purchase it again in both the coral and the pink at a whopping $130. It’s so beautiful just stunning. If I can drop $270 on a La Mer eye cream and blush being my favorite product this blush is the one to drop for. Edit: I purchased this in 2020 at $110 so it went up in price by $20 hmm

[@Adhara740]

What do you like about the la mer eye cream. I haven’t tried it

[@kimvadas2237]

I actually own all 3 shades of this blush. I bought each of them from different websites, so I was able to get each one on sale (50% off or more). I bought these with the intent of keeping them in pristine condition for the pure artistry of these palettes. They are glorious! 💖

[@parisamarashi2935]

Can I ask is the corail less glowy? I like the natural beiges chanel satin super subtle glows

[@Ubelongamongthewildflowers]

I have all 3! Worth every penny Wayyyy better than hourglass by far! 5 🌟

[@randijacklin171]

I love this blush. I have all 3 of the shades and they are each phenomenal!!!!

[@cheentzia]

oof you def took one for the team there! 💸💸💸:) it looks gorgeous but it wouldn’t be worth the money for me personally, esp. as the embossing reminds me of a tarantula like omg 😱😅

[@CharlotteHoldcroft]

At least one!

[@ChickIsFearless]

Thank you for the fun and entertaining review. I bought the rose color 6 months ago - never thinking I would buy another color- and did indeed purchase the coral (waited for a beauty-deal) last week and was not disappointed. These two, along with the Chanel Fantaisie blush, are my all time favorites. Good news is the third color would not work for me :)

[@CharlotteHoldcroft]

Phew! 😅

[@sabsa70]

I personally would (and could) never spend so much money on a single product, BUT I'm happy for you that you like it this much 😍! Thanks for sharing! 😘

[@fabienneschroeder7259]

Thank you Charlotte. I am so glad you didn't spend £94 on this blush and even more glad you enjoy it. Definitely not one for me. Thank you for pointing out the £/gramme, too. Best wishes.

[@cynderella2867]

It looks lovely so I guess for the amount of product you get it's a good deal.

[@kathleenmoul3630]

WOW That's gorgeous. I really wish I hadn't seen it.

[@petshopgirl39]

I bought the same Sisley l’Orchidee blush in the 1 Original shade from an EBay seller for £30! Brand new and in its box too. I absolutely love it. The glow definitely reveals itself a few minutes after application. I’d love another one in a different shade but not at £94.

[@rabbiroz3806]

It is gorgeous! I had a pink toned one once, but the color wasn’t quite right for me, so I gave it away - gulp - but I just wasn’t wearing it! I’d love it in a plummy/mauve or a berry color!!!

[@gypsybelle637]

Oh my goodness. I love this blush too. I have the same color , and I've used for two years and it stays beautiful all the way down. It is worth the price. Well, we're worth the money!🤭👍🏼💯

[@lisapierce525]

I agree with every synonym you used to describe this blush. I couldn’t spend full price but half price, absolutely! It’s the most glorious looking blush I’ve seen on you. Thank you so much for this review!

[@depymarcoyanni]

I have the rose one. It is my favorite blush ever!!!

[@shadow_wolf2177]

I have the coral and the bronze one. The bronze one doesn’t look like a blush on me but a bronzer. I wish I had bought the pink one instead of the bronze one though.

[@LisaMarlene.]

😂😂😂😂 If you don’t like this it’s your lucky day 😂😂😂😂. I so enjoy your humor ❤

[@CarryOn-Janet]

I have this bush in the Coral and the Rose. I love, love, love them! I have so many other blushes by Dior and Chanel so I'm comparing to those blushes. These are so beautiful on the cheek!

[@LaralittleTV]

It’s worth it definitely. My favourite!❤ as you said per gram is cheaper than Chanel but Chanel changed the formula as o it’s not as good as old one. I am happy I bought it ..

[@user-ug6ui9hp2b]

to be honest in my experience I think you get what you pay for . finely milled with beautiful pigments ! I am very tempted . Charlotte ...you are a very good advert ! it really looks beyond stunning on you . x p.s - do you know why these blushes are available in a silver and gold compact ? are they the same ?

[@deborahcates]

This is gorgeous. I’m happy for you, Charlotte, since you love blush so much. ❤ I would be more likely to splurge on eyeshadow.

[@katemakeuplooks]

Oh it is beautiful… wasn’t expecting to like it so much. My Hourglass palettes are going to get some more use and I’ll see how I get on with those… xx

[@vickinparadox]

I would be interested in seeing the bronzier shade, then if it could be used as a "blonzer" i could possibly warrant the price bc it could double as my bronzer and blush.

[@loisen]

The bronzer shade looks like Mood exposure from hourglass on me.

[@2510tatiana]

@@loisenis it as cool as the Mood exposure? I thought Sisley in 1 is a warm peach color 🙏🫶

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

I do love my rms blushes and I don’t have any desire to mortgage my future to buy this blush. I don’t want to have this beautiful package. It invites display rather than use. I’m pretty sure the only tears I’ll be avoiding are the ones you get looking at your Visa balance.

[@xpnn]

I saw this blush going for 50% today and I bought it. This will be my go-to for the next 2-3 months

[@dolleeeh]

I don’t stop myself from swatching this every time I see it in a store 😂

[@beatafiejdasz4983]

Ive got this blush, I like it so much!!!🤩❤I bought it on sale in Sephora 2 years ago!

[@lorrainemallory6951]

I have all three and I absolutely love them!!

[@masonjeq4261]

In the US this goes on sale at luxury retailers for half off a few times a year (no specific one, but I've seen it on clearance several times). I have 01 and my only suggestion is that you may want to swatch it before picking it up as a second color way. While certainly different, when I looked at images and swatches I thought it would be a pinkish brown like the original Chanel Jersey (80) or red side of Suqqu 138. Instead it's more of a pinky/coral and brighter or poppy vs. natural. If this doesn't bother you no concern, but you may find the pink leaning coral to be a bit too close to the one you have to justify the price tag.

[@CharlotteHoldcroft]

That's weird, mine is definitely pretty neutral!

[@pixieburton3131]

It’s really beautiful. Honestly, I would be willing to save up for one. Maybe a Christmas or birthday gift for myself.

[@elainebines6803]

Most companies offer points etc these days. Received a voucher for £30 from Liberty the other day!. 100% I would buy. Would last me along time, works and quality - looks gorgeous on you.

[@laurie6755]

Smart lady on the putchase. That would be the way I would do it if I wanted it. It looks so pretty on you.😊

[@LemanHundri]

I have this shade 03 & also the pink one ! I LOVEEE this so much and I do have plenty blushes but always reach out for these

[@michalparcher9805]

Charlotte you’ve No idea how AMAZING and timely this video is! First, I love all you’re tastes in makeup (similar to me but I’m a “pink” girl as you live “Peach”:) 2 months ago I purchased the Rose L’orchids blush at Nordstrom’s with a small gift card that put a tiny dent in the price of this $130 blush! I’ve been eyeing it for about a year now! I missed out on the Chanel beautiful (Fantasy de Chanel) blush last year and I saw some reviews seeing how similar they are! We really Do think alike and I absolutely LOVE that you pointed out that we get 15g of product where for example the new “Light and Berry” blush from Chanel I just got is 6.5 for $75!! So you’re SO Amazing to point out that price per gram it’s not an insane amount for a Luxury Blush! I already hit Pan on my Medium Rose Gold Les beiges spring compact and I bought a backup! I’m 42 yrs old and at least I know now what I like in my makeup and I guarantee I will hit Pan on the Rose Sisley blush! If it “helps” you feel better about purchasing the #1 Tan blush I’d LOVE to see your review on that! I saw this video the day you posted and knew I HAD to comment (even 3 days later)! You , Erin Nicole, Tania B Wells and Rebecca from “Not Fit for Print Beauty” (I love Tara Lynn too but she hasn’t posted as much lately:) are My FAV content creators and I watch ALL your videos! I refer to you as “my friends” and my 16 yr old son and 17 yr old daughter roll their eyes knowing I’m talking about my “KZbin’rs” I faithfully watch! Thank you for your videos! Luv you

[@cheryln6685]

Yes, it's worth it. I have a small collection of blushes and I own all three shades of these Sisley blushes. The Rose shade is my favorite blush I own and if I could only own one blush in life, that would be it. You can buy them at a discount when Sisley has one of their 20% off sales.

[@loriengelmann9240]

It looks beautiful! I am a fan of HG. I think, given that I woud never hit pan, that's where my money would go. I also like that the hourglass has the highlight throughout. I am lazy. However, if you have the points and want try it...I say go for it!

[@abbyLongbourn]

I am not really into blush, so I wouldn't buy it at that price but it looks stunning on you !!

[@monicahellen9383]

I¨m actually thinking of buying it but at a discount. Loved the shade on you, the packaging etc. So maybe as a gift to myself? I've got very fair skin so probably the pink one. Your eye makeup is gorgeous! Definitely checking that out...

[@romana.in.wonderland]

A very interesting review Charlotte, thank you! The blush looks really stunning on your cheeks, such a pretty colour! Nevertheless I will stick to my two hourglass palettes. It takes so long to use up those and I like the finish. The question about worth is personal. I have to admit if I would be in the market for a new blush I would pay the price (using a discount of course).

[@SusanSaysSomething]

Thank you for the Blondie economics. Put that way, OF COURSE it's worth it!

[@majesticbeast4830]

Thank you for this! I have had my eye on this for so long, but couldn't justify the price. I was afraid it was an overspray or the shimmer particles might be too glittery looking.

[@CharlotteHoldcroft]

Understandable!

[@lisab.1595]

It is beautiful !!!!!

[@carolinemeevis]

I did the same as you. I've bought 2 shades the pink and coral and they are stunning. (Hourglass sublime flush looks like the pink one) But I love the Sisley blushes!

[@speechtaught]

I love the lipstick you’re wearing! It’s really lovely. As usual your eye makeup is beautiful as well.

[@nancytipton7602]

Love at first sight for me with this PERFECT blush! It looks stunning on you, and has that soft candlelight glow effect that appears to radiate from within. Like yourself, there is something about a really well down, wonderfully performing coral shade of blush that "tickles my pickle"! That gets my wallet to carry away as captive...if I let it.

[@lyndariley9076]

I bought one at full price in pink. I should have bought one of the other colors. I gave it to my sister and she is enjoying it. I love blush. I think it is the most important article of makeup because it brings color to our face that we lose naturally.

[@Caudali]

Could you please try the pink one ❤️

[@elissacox4291]

Insane price, but 15g no? So 2-3 times the price but also 2-3 times the amount of product. I have the coral shade - also got it on a discount - and it truly is beautiful 😻

[@CharlotteHoldcroft]

Yes exactly!

[@phoenixgirl11]

I have 3 and the bronze one. There aren’t much of a difference between the two colors. The bronze one is a tiny bit dipper but when you put them on can’t tell the difference. At least on my skin.

[@danajaekel4202]

If it makes you happy, I thing it absolutely is worth the price for you😊

[@louise9958]

Oh wow! Charlotte, the blush looks so radiant and stunning on you! I was looking at getting Dim Infusion from Hourglass but now I'm not so sure! Comparatively, would these be shade contenders? Any thoughts from the community would be so greatly appreciated ☺

[@vwiccy]

First … your eyes look gorgeous! Mmm, LE Vega … now I want 😊 Second… love the hair! Did you do a video about hairstyling? Or did I daydream you did? I’m sure it’s probably basic styling, but I’m super basic girl with hair, and would love a video of your hair styling examples 3rd… now I want that blush - but I just bought the new chantecaille ones, so based on this price, I’ll have to wait and wait - wish it wasn’t soooooo much product - I can be buried with it I guess 😂

[@amberp5207]

Thanks a lot Charlotte. Now I want this blush.🥺

No, it isn't. I had the pink one, and I decluttered it. No more special than any other luxury beauty blush for half the price. I like Sisley skincare, but the makeup is mediocre. 💙

Heh - I purchased that when it was $90 usd- a few years ago. I also got the pink one…is it worth it. I would not buy again but they are lovely. It is not waterproof and is extremely fragile. Sisley is in and of itself a very chi chi line. I love the line but the prices really don’t make me happy, one important thing is that products last a long time. I have the bronzers and they are gorgeous too. A lovely video on a great product! Thank you 😊

Hi Charlotte, I want to say thank you NOT for making me aware of this absolutely gorgeous blush. FYI, I live in Canada and it’s $175 here +13% tax = almost $200. I think I’ll have to do without this beauty but thanks for your videos. I really enjoy them.
