Description
What it is used for
Savvy Minerals blush in the shade Smashing is designed to add a touch of color and vitality to the cheeks. Its purpose is to naturally enhance facial contours, providing a subtle or more intense blush, depending on the desired application. It contributes to a fresh and rejuvenated look, complementing any type of makeup.
Key Ingredients
The formulation of Savvy Minerals blush focuses on naturally derived ingredients, seeking to offer a makeup alternative that prioritizes gentleness. It includes:
- Mineral micas: Provide characteristic color and shimmer, reflecting light for a luminous finish.
- Iron oxides: Natural pigments that provide a variety of shades, ensuring long-lasting color.
- Magnesium stearate: Helps the product adhere well to the skin and improves texture.
- Glyceryl caprylate: A plant-derived emollient that contributes to the formula's smoothness.
The Savvy Minerals brand is distinguished by avoiding undesirable additives, such as synthetic fillers, artificial dyes, fragrances, preservatives, and talc, making it suitable for sensitive skin.
Application Method
To achieve the best results with Savvy Minerals Smashing blush, follow these steps:
- Preparation: Ensure your skin is clean and hydrated. You can apply a foundation or concealer first if desired.
- Initial application: Pour a small amount of blush into the container lid.
- Load the brush: Use a soft, dense blush brush to pick up the product, swirling it gently onto the powder in the lid. Lightly tap off excess product to prevent over-application.
- Application to cheeks: Smile slightly to identify the most prominent part of your cheekbones (the “apples” of your cheeks). Apply the blush with soft, upward strokes towards your temples.
- Blending: Blend the color well to avoid harsh lines and achieve a natural, integrated finish.
- Intensity adjustment: If you desire a more intense color, repeat the process, adding thin layers until you reach the desired level.
It is recommended to apply blush after foundation and before highlighter or setting powder, if they are part of your routine.
Skin Type
Savvy Minerals blush is formulated to be suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin. Its mineral composition and the absence of certain synthetic additives aim to minimize the risk of irritation and pore clogging. Pure mineral pigments allow the skin to breathe, which is beneficial for blemish-prone or sensitive skin.
Precautions
Although Savvy Minerals blush is formulated with gentle ingredients, it is important to take certain precautions:
- For external use only: Do not ingest the product.
- Avoid eye contact: In case of contact, rinse with plenty of water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of small children.
- Sensitivity test: If you have very sensitive skin or known allergies to cosmetics, perform a patch test on a small area of the skin before full application.
- Discontinue use: If you observe any adverse reactions, such as irritation, redness, or itching, stop using and consult a health professional.
- Airtight closure: Make sure to close the container tightly after each use to preserve the product's quality and prevent contamination.
Frequently Asked Questions
What differentiates mineral blushes from traditional ones?
Mineral blushes, like Savvy Minerals, are often formulated with natural pigments derived from crushed minerals and tend to avoid synthetic fillers, preservatives, fragrances, and dyes common in traditional blushes. This may make them a preferable option for sensitive or allergy-prone skin.
Is Smashing blush suitable for my skin tone?
The Smashing shade is a versatile blush that can complement a variety of skin tones, from fair to medium, providing a warm peachy-pink color. To see how it suits your skin, you can start with a light application and build up the color.
How can I ensure the blush lasts all day?
To prolong the blush's wear, make sure to apply it over a set foundation or concealer. You can finish your routine with a makeup setting spray. Additionally, mineral powder blushes typically have good adherence to the skin.
Can mineral blush be applied with fingers?
While it is possible to apply some products with fingers, for mineral powder blushes, it’s recommended to use a specific brush. This allows for more even distribution, smoother blending, and precise control over color intensity, avoiding the transfer of oils from fingers to the skin.

Tutorial de maquillaje natural
Hola! Espero que os guste este tutorial de maquillaje de Savvy Minerals un look natural y libre de tóxicos y químicos. Espero que disfrutéis del video, si queréis más videos en castellano dímelo en los comentarios! GRACIAS por mirar este vídeo!
Base de maquillaje buena
Este maquillaje es muy natural y no tiene químicos, lo cual es un gran plus. Sin embargo, todavía estoy buscando un rímel que realmente me guste.
Eye Shadow -- Crushin’ + Residual
The Savvy Minerals eye shadow range consists of ten colours, with a pretty even split between neutrals and purples and pinks, plus one random green shade. I, not surprisingly, chose two peachy colours: Crushin’, a shimmery medium peach, and Residual, a pale peach/beige shimmer. The shadows are pigmented, apply smoothly, and blend nicely too. Both colors are shimmers, but they’re on the more subtle side, so perfectly suitable for everyday, work, or any other occasion.
Misting Spray
The Misting Spray, which somehow missed the photos, is a water, aloe, glycerin, and essential oil spray that can be used before makeup, as a skin hydrator, or after, as a makeup setting spray. The spray is lightweight and lovely and I like using it both ways. It’s, not surprisingly, loaded with essential oils and smells gorgeous -- a mix of light florals and vanilla, with just a hint of citrus. I think the mist makes a great hydrating toner, when used as more of a skincare step, and it also does a good job post-makeup, to reduce any powderyness and to help everything meld into the skin better.
Lip Gloss - Embrace + Abundant
The glosses are fantastic! They’re thick and beautifully shiny on the lips, with just a hint of stickiness to keep them hanging on. Flavoured with peppermint essential oil, they smell fresh and have a slight minty tingle when first applied. Both Embrace, a peachy-nude, and Abundant, a medium pink, give beautiful glossy color and a nice fullness to the lips.
Diamond Dust Veil
The Diamond Dust is advertised as a lightweight and sheer setting powder/mineral veil intended to extend makeup wear time, absorb excess oil, and add luminosity to the skin while blurring fine lines and imperfections. I love a good luminous setting powder, and while the Diamond Dust has a pretty finish on the skin, it also has plenty of actual glitter particles. I just can’t do glitter all over my face, so it’s a big no from me on this one.
Foundation Powder - Cool No. 1
The Savvy Minerals Foundation is marketed as a long-wearing mineral foundation with a buildable formula that can go from sheer to full coverage. It’s a solid foundation, but I don’t think it fully lives up to those claims. To me, it’s a nice lightweight, natural, low-coverage mineral foundation. It has a beautiful finish -- satin with a slight luminosity -- but only offers light to low-medium coverage. I’ve tried it with a few different brushes and I don’t think there’s any way to build this foundation up to a full coverage. The colour range is also somewhat limited, with six light to medium shades (three cool and three warm), and four darker. As I always say, hopefully the shade range will be extended in the future. I chose the color Cool No. 1, the lightest cool shade, which is pretty pink in comparison to my usual more neutral foundation colours, but it does match me and blend into my skin nicely. Cool No. 1 is light enough that I could probably go up a shade in the summer.
Blush -- Smashing
Smashing is a super pretty blush and is one of the more unique colors I’ve seen in the Savvy Minerals lineup. On first glance, it’s a pretty standard coral/peachy-pink, but it has a hint of cool silver/blue iridescence that brings a lot of extra interest to the shade. The blush blends easily and looks super pretty on the cheeks. Smashing is quite glowy and can definitely function as a 2-in-1 blush and highlight.
