Product details

Two Better Than Cheek Milk Series palettes in Odi Milk and Strawberry Milk side by side on pale pink paper, with crumbs and pastel swatches of blush

Powder blusher

Milky, bright pastel blush that blurs skin texture, made for light skin tones.

The Milk Series is rom&nd’s milky take on its “My Cheek But Better” blusher, with soft, bright shades made with light skin tones in mind. It is a blur blusher: fine starch powders and silky talc smooth over the look of skin texture, while titanium dioxide gives the colours their opaque, milky softness.

Good to know

  • W01 Odi Milk is a lilac pink, like mulberry milk cream.
  • W02 Strawberry Milk is a soft baby pink.
  • Contains carmine, a colourant derived from insects, so it is not suitable for vegans.
  • Each palette is 4 g. For deeper, fruit-toned shades, see the regular Better Than Cheek.
