Bihada Ichizoku Blush in Beige

I have been lemming (wanting eagerly) Bihada Ichizoku blushers for several months, and I was really happy to find them online at jpmon.com. (jpmon.com is quite a tricky website, if you do not speak Chinese... fortunately the Muse did a tutorial on ordering here)

Anyway, after contemplating which colour to pick, I chose the beige one. But, after seeing haruhii pics online, I was afraid that the beige one will look orangy on me. Check out the link of her post. I do not want to steal her beautiful pictures.



The blusher and other items arrived yesterday, and fortunately it seems really workable as a winter bronzer/highlighter colour...

Here is a picture of the blusher in sunlight (finally, there is a bit of sunlight today!)


The blusher out of sunlight, but still in natural light.


This is a close up of the blusher in sunlight:




On my pale arm. Natural light and no direct sunlight.

And the same swatch in sunlight:






The box itself is quite reminicent of the Shu Uemura blusher. I compared the two of them, but I found that the Bihada Ichozoku blusher is a bit bigger than the Shu.





I bought the blusher on jpmon for 450 taiwanese dollar, which is about $13.50 (current rate)and it is listed over here. More Bihada items are available on this page, or you could ask a lovely friend in Japan to purchase these items for you.
