It’s been a while since I last had a swatch party with you all. And seeing as a new shade of the Tower 28 Get Set Powder Blushes made it’s way to Australian shores, I figured it was time I pulled my finger out and swatched the range for you. I indeed do own pretty much all of the shades that are available at Mecca (and one that isn’t!). And I always get asked about these blushes. So, let’s chat about them.
The Tower 28 Get Set Matte Powder Blushes is Tower 28’s first array into coloured powder products. They are a talc free, vegan formula that boasts 12 hour wear with full pigment. And they are so very right when it comes to the pigment. A little bit does go quite a long way with these blushes. Especially with some of the bolder shades. They are a totally matte formula. But by no means are they a flat matte. They melt into the skin perfectly. And like the entirety of the Tower 28 range, the Get Set Blushes are approved by the National Eczema Association. I have eight of the shades. Let’s get to swatching!
MALIBU COOLER – Cool Baby Pink
FELIZ FRESCA – Warm Hot Pink
CULVER CRUSH – Pinky Peach
LONG BEACH ICED TEA – Earthy Rosy Pink
*Em’s Note* Because someone is going to ask, this is my go to shade or basically any makeup look. I love the neutral flush it gives to the skin. If there is any shade in this range I recommend to people with skin tones similar to me, it’s this one.
SAMO SPRITZER – Rosy Mauve
SAWTELLE SLUSHIE – Rose
PALI PUNCH – Lavender
*Em’s Note* This shade was released as part of a fundraiser to help aid the 2025 California wildfire relief efforts. It does appear to now be a permanent part of the Get Set collection. However, at the time of writing, it is not available in Australia. And yes, like a dickhead, I did break mine. I will repress it eventually.
SUNSET SHIRLEY – Deep Raspberry
*Em’s Note* This shade was released in collaboration with Toni Bravo and was specifically designed for those with deeper skin tones. While it is listed as limited edition on the Tower 28 website, it is available in Australia.
And that is my other Tower 28 blush collection swatched out! I know that there is one other shade that was released in collaboration with Toni Bravo. But at the time of writing, I don’t own it. And I believe they released a shade for holiday last year. But that one is lost to the sands of time for me. In any case, I hope you enjoyed this and I will catch you all on Friday!
Cheers and love
