Worn alone or with its OG bestie, Cloud Paint’s new powder formula gets all the thumbs up from me. The shades are gorgeous (there’s truly a shade for every skin tone and mood), the formula is blendable and pigmented, and let’s be honest: Blush faces more stiff competition than ever before, and this one has solidly earned a spot in my rotation. At $26 (available at both Glossier and Sephora), it occupies a similar price point as comparable blushes from Rare Beauty and Makeup By Mario. I’ve taken years to finish a single tube of Cloud Paint, and if Plush Blush is remotely similar, then I know it’ll be at least a few months before I hit pan. (The brush is nice, but I truthfully don’t see myself using it super often — although it is admittedly very cute and a collector’s item for any Glossier superfan.) All in all, I think Glossier has managed to do something pretty unique with this launch; make a powder blush that appeals to the Glossier hive, while also meeting non-Cloud Paint users where they’re at. I’d even go as far as to say this is Glossier’s most impressive makeup launch in a while, but I don’t want to make them blush or anything…
