It is like a jelly-blancmange consistency that you can break up and it them reforms and solidifies itself into a smooth glossy gel again! Fun! Think the Illamasqua Hydra Veil with a bit more of a creamy blancmange vibe!  It’s quite crazy!

The formula blends really easily to a sheer flush of colour, or you can build it up for more intensity. When you see it in the pot you think ‘oh my god, Aunt Sally cheeks!’, but don’t worry! The super light, water-like texture glides over the skin effortlessly, creating a beautiful natural looking flush.

Givenchy Extravagancia 2014 Blush Memoire de Forme Formula!

It is a “non-sticky associative polymer gel with innovative elasticity”. Erm that’s a bit too techy for me but basically it is a new texture that, on contact, melts and adheres to the skin. It has a smoothing and refreshing effect thanks to its 70% water formulation and concentration of floral water.

It blends really easily and by the time you have applied it, the gel has reformed into jelly. Amazing! Clever old associate polymer gels!?!? Ahem…

Givenchy Extravagancia 2014 Blush Memoire is a really fun and effective product. It actually works really nicely on the lips as a stain too, so it’s a great little multi-tasker! I’m keeping it in my makeup bag for sure.

Givenchy Extravagancia 2014 Blush Memoire launches in September 2014. Find Givenchy at Debenhams and House of Fraser. See the rest of the collection HERE.

  • Wow, that looks stunning! I’m a huge fan of gel and cream blushes, plus I consistently love Givenchy Beauty so I will definitely need to keep an eye out for this…

  • It looks so nice! The only thing to check is the composition of the products. I mean, sometimes these jelly-creamy blushes and products for the face makeup are so stuffed of bad chemicals…
    Love your nail polish, by the way,

    cheers
