CandyDoll Cheek Color in Strawberry Pink: Swatches and Comparison


Here is my review of the most hyped CandyDoll blush in Strawberry Pink. This product is from Koji's CandyDoll line produced by the lovely and kawaii Tsubasa Masuwaka.



The packaging is really kawaii and the reason that made me get this in the first place. XD The color looks like a neon magenta pink.

Here's e.l.f. Studio Blush in Pink Passion (which I purchased at eyeslipsface.com) next to CandyDoll Blush in Strawberry Pink. In the pan you can clearly tell that the CandyDoll blush has a darker and more magenta hue.

The color different is not as noticeable on the skin. There micro glitter tint that my camera picked up on the CandyDoll blush which is very subtle and barely noticeable.

The CandyDoll blush is a lot more pigmented than the e.l.f. blush. One swatch of the CandyDoll blush (on the right) is equivalent to 2 to 3 swatches of the e.l.f. blush in Pink Passion. I really like CandyDoll's packaging but the plastic lid has come off twice already though it still can be easily put back in. It is sold around $15 to $19 USD online.
