Technic is a brand that is found most on lovethymakeup.co.uk ( or other discount websites ) or Bodycare stores but is not availible conveniently as Boots and Superdrug stores do not offer this brand.
Technic is a brand made by Badgequo LTD and is " Bang up to date with the very latest fashion-inspired colours and styles, Technic is the name that keeps you in vogue with a WOW factor right off the scale."
The blusher mousse recommended retail price is £2.99 and comes in a small glass jar with a pale pink plastic lid, with the writing " technic blusher mousse" and the colour, in my case " Candy Pink 01"
The mousse comes in 4 different shades; Candy Pink, Plum, Pink Champagne and Peaches 'n' cream . As said above; I opted for 01 Candy Pink.
When I purchased this blusher online, I had never heard of the brand so was sceptical about online swatches. Because colour swatches weren't available elsewhere, I took a gamble with what would be a light pink, although wearable, is more of a neon (and glittery) pink colour.
The mousse is very creamy, soft and applies matte to the skin. It can be applied with a brush, sponge or with your fingers. Though, because of the small jar, most make-up brushes are too big to fit into the jar and makes getting colour out of the jar awkward. This can mean that only a light flush of colour will be applied.
The blusher, because it is a mousse, blends easily into the skin, often too much though, so has to be built up to leave more of an obvious colour to your cheeks. In doing this however, you are not left looking cakey.
The blusher can be applied under, or over, foundation or powder and will not look cakey whichever you opt for. It applies matte with smaller glitter particles.
I find that when using this blusher, applied lightly on a daily basis, that the colour will fade after a couple of hours. However, the more colour that you apply initially, the longer it will last on the skin.
Overall I would rate this product 3 stars as it is a good quality product. The reason that I rated down this product is that it has awkward packaging and the glittery finish that this leaves puts me off repurchasing this shade.
Summary: A cheap product thats good quality but I won't be repurchasing
