Hello all,
Today I have a Chanel Joues Contraste to show you. Ultra Rose was released few months ago in Singapore and it’s a permanent collection. The neon pink color attracts my eye and I could not help myself to get a piece of this cutie blush.
The Color:
As you can see in the pictures, Ultra Rose is a a vibrant neon pink blush with a satiny finish. The color might look scary in the pan, but when applied, it looks fine for me. Actually this blush reminds me of NARS Gaiety, but I don’t have NARS Gaiety so I couldn’t show the comparison in this post. Cafe Makeup has done a very good job in comparing Ultra Rose with other bright pink blush, you can read it here.
The Pigmentation & Texture:
Ultra Rose has excellent pigmentation. The color shows up very well at the first swatch and the finish makes my skin looks glowy but not glittery. The texture feels smooth and blends very well. However since this is a baked version, it’s not as smooth as what I would expected.
The Look:
Final Thought:
For ladies who wants a bright pink blush, this is a very good choice. It provides a satiny finish and it makes my face looks radiant.
Thank you for reading.

It’s such a bright pop of color that sits very well on your skin tone! Now I need to go to a Chanel counter and hunt it down! The pigmentation looks amazing too
Hello dearie,
the pigmentation of this blush is to die for! I think this blush suits your skin tone too
That is beautiful! That bright blue toned pink is really stunning.
Hi Bellyhead,
I agree that the blue toned is so pretty
what a gorgeous vibrant yet wearable pink!
this color looks beautiful on your flawless cheeks.
Thanks Lena,
You’re so sweet
The color suits you so well!! This would be all wrong on me – but it just looks perfect on you.
HI Isabelle,
Thank you for your kind comment!
Bright color makes me happy
Oh my gosh this is SO pretty! I was a little scared of it in the pan but swatched and on your cheeks, it’s so soft and feminine and pretty!
I think feminine is a very right word Becca! Thanks for your lovely comment as always :*
This is gorgeous — there’s nothing quite like Chanel shimmer, is there.
I agree that Chanel shimmer is gorgeous!
what a pretty color!
don’t think we have this here though!
ah really? I think Ultra Rose should be available anywhere, no?
Such a pretty colour! Lately I have been wearing pink blushers more than peachy ones. I love Chanel’s pink explosion – its a lighter pink than this one, with a pretty gold shimmer
Oh yes, pink explosion is a very nice coor too
i am a sucker for pink blushes LOL
I bought the Rose Tourbillon at DFS, the color seems pretty similar to this. Somehow, I find that its not smooth as well. But the rose scent of the product is very gratifying. It’s very pigmented but it doesn’t blend that well for some reason.
