I really love this blush/bronzer duo. The blush in soft ginger is the perfect peach I have been looking for and it gives such a beautiful warm glow without real shimmer or glitter. To pick up more product, I actually have scratched the surface and it gives good build able pigmentation. The bronzer gives a nice sun kissed glow all over. Great product, I hope they never discontinue it.

I love the colors when I first saw this. It looked beautifully when first applied. The blush is a light pale pink and the bronzer is a great contouring color. HOWEVER, this difinitely doesnt stay put and it settles in fine lines. I am only 22 years old and I look like an old lady at the end of the day. IT SMELLS WORSE THAN FECES!!! It has a horrible smell. It sucks to smell it all day and if you have a bf or husband, he will not want to kiss you... and ask you if you showered.. NASTY..
Pros:
Nice colors
100% Natural/ Organic
Cons:
Fades easily
Smells like SHIT

I bought this duo at my local Ross store for less than $4! I was very excited to try the beautiful peachy tones blush that would match my very fair skin perfectly. The blush, I love love love because it gives my face a soft glow but the bronzer was very chalky and disappointing because there is no payoff whatsoever no matter what kind of brush i use. For less than $4 I would buy this product again but I can't get enough use of the whole thing because of the bronzer.

I bought this at CVS at 75% off and mainly because I was looking for a very sheer coral to orange blush color. I have rosacea so blushes have to be sheer - what normal people might consider non-existent. And for that, this blush in Soft Ginger does the job. The big surprise was the bronzer. I was looking for a matte bronzer that wasn't too dark and I'm about NC-25 to NC-30 with very yellow olive undertones so this was way too light for me. Or so I thought. What I discovered was that this bronzer has a opalescent sheen to it which makes it apply lighter than what it looks like in the pan where it looks absolutely matte. So now I'm using this as a powder foundation and I find that it is buildable to a medium coverage. The sheen actually works like an illuminator but in the wrong light can look shiny like oily skin when its perfectly dry but if you work it right can look glowy.
I definitely think the low rating on this product has a lot to do with the wrong type of person is buying this. For a yellow-undertoned, medium skin person looking for a no-makeup look using this as a powder foundation and sheer blush, this is great especially if you don't have oily skin since it will stay in place longer.
As for the smell, it is unscented but may have a slight crayon smell but honestly, I didn't even notice it until I read the other reviews.

I've been in the process of switching over to natural cosmetics. I was in love with my Benefit Dallas, and the shade I believe I bought of this is Bronzer/Rose, which is a VERY similar color to Benefit Dallas IMO. I'm very fair and the color shows up on me perfectly well. I used it daily all summer and that didn't even put a dent in the powder. I like Dallas better, and I'm not sure if I really buy into all the hype about natural products, but I did not have a problem with this product not performing well. I did a 2 for price because if you don't get it on sale, it's $14, which is pretty high for drug store. The packaging is fine but it could be slimmer if it weren't for te bulky under compartment for the crappy brush.

If your looking for a pigmented blush/bronzer duo, skip this because it is quite sheer. However, I like it that way since it leaves a subtle glow to my skin. The colours are nice for my skin-tone at the moment since I'm not as tan as I was during the Summer, but if you are tan-darker it probably won't show up too well. There is very slight golden shimmer in both the blush and bronzer which is just enough for me without looking too sparkly. A good one for the day-time.

Well, my review will stand out in the general mass of negative comments. I actually like this blush! The color fits me well, there is a lot of pigment there - I am surprised to read that someone can't see the blush on their face! It must be a wrong choice of color. I also like that there is absolutely no shimmer - IMHO, it looks more natural without a shimmer. You can put just a tiny bit and it will look like you just finished a light jog.
In fact, there is not much difference between my Jane Iredale pure-pressed blush and this one, except for the price!
As for the bronzer - I don't care mush about it, I think if someone needs strictly a bronzer, they shouldn't get 2-in-1 anyway.

I forget which shade I bought. This product is just blah. I suppose the colors may work for someone. I find both the bronzer and the blush too light and didn't show up barely at all, and I didn't like the texture much either.

I hated this product. It is very chalky and has almost no colour pay off. I don't like the smell and it takes several brush strokes to get any colour pay off. The bronzer made me look orange!

I got this for free at Ulta (I'm a member and this was a reward). I picked the 2A - Light Bronzer/Pink Rose. It kinda smells a touch like play dough to me. I honestly would have never thought to buy this myself. I'm a huge fan of Benefit 10, and this was the closest to it that I could find. In comparison the color payoff is not there...I HAVE to build it up for the same effect as 10. Which for me means three swipes on my cheeks as opposed to one w/10. Not that it's a huge deal, but I'm not crazy about the smell of the product in the package. When it's on however, I don't smell it (which is good). I think that it is a bit pricey at $13.95 for a drugstore brand. Also want to mention that blending is a huge b*tch w/this. I like a more natural glow on the cheek and this requires blending...which I often just don't want to be bothered with.

I recently got this from Walgreen's and it was marked down to $3. The SA told me that it was marked down because they were discontinuing this brand. I got this in Bronzer/Ginger, which is the medium tone version. The packaging is cute. One side flips open for the blush/bronzer. The other side opens up for the brush and mirror. I don't use brushes that come with the makeup, but I hear from other reviewers that its harsh on the skin. The blush and bronzer is kinda chalky and it SMELLS like old crayons. I think its because the packaging is made of cardboard, so try keep this away from water, or else you are screwed. This also came with a lipgloss called Super Ginger. It smells okay, a little fruity and a little shiny. I thought this was a good deal for the blush/bronzer and lipgloss, but I ended up not liking the product. Good thing I only spent 3 bucks on it. This is not something I would buy if it were regular price.

The blush and bronzed are actually really great. Really natural and found that I can build up the color to my liking. I finished the first duo, which led me to buy the second. However, the second one had a smell to it. I actually went and bought MAC's Refined Golden bronzer to replace it. I just recently went back to Physicians because I didn't want to waste it. The smell is tolerable but I won't repurchase because of it.

I got this in the lightest duo (the one with the peachy blush). I was so excited to try it out, because it's almost all organic. However, once I put the product on my face, I realized organic = garbage. I mean this product actually smells like garbage on my face. I first thought maybe it's just the one I got was expired or defective, so I exchanged it for a new one at Shoppers Drug Mart. Same thing!!! It stinks!!!
I really wanted to love it, because the peachy blush is so gorgeous on, and the light matte bronzer is perfect for contouring. But the smell is too much of a turn off for me to get much use out of this product. If you are ok with sporting a stinky but gorgeous face all day, only then I'd say give this a try. The packaging is made of cardboard, one side is the duo, the opposite opens to a mirror and a scratchy brush. It has magnetic closure, so it's good to travel with. Ahhh, if only it didn't stink like garbage!!!

The colors are subtle, but buildable. I keep it in my desk at work for quick touchups and really like that it's a 2 in 1. My only issue with the Organic Wear packaging is that the mirror flips open on the other side so you have to juggle a bit to use the brush and then the mirror.

I have fair skin/blonde hair..and although I've tried dozens of blushes (cause I need them badly) this is MY FAVORITE BLUSH OF ALL TIME. I am on my second pck. of the light bronzer/ginger blush. And it's true, the bronzer isn't the best fornula - has a dirty, muddy kinda look to it. But the blush is stunning .It is such a pretty pink/peachy color and I always get compliments when I wear it. It has a lot of staying power to - I can still see it on my cheeks by the end of the day. Please try this blush and I promise you wouldn't regret it, epecially if you have blue/reddish undertones to your skin!

huge letdown! I was so so sooooo excited for this product and all of PF Organicwear. Its so hard for my brushes to pick this powder up and the only one that does is this really harsh kabuki. The bronzer is muddy. The blush is pretty but that doesn't really matter when I can't even get the product on my face.Its not at all finely milled. Once I finally got it on my face with that kabuki it didn't settle well- it just looked weird and powdery on my face. It only looked good when I had a serious tan because its really natural so I had that beachy sun glow thing going on. It smells weird but its not awful. The packaging sucks. If you get water anywhere near it, you're screwed. The plastic cover breaks easily and its just cheap in general.

UGH, I AM SO DISAPPOINTED.
I was really excited to see both this and the organic lipgloss (which I actually KINDA liked...but LOST) on super clearance for 6 dollars for the 2.
This stuff. SUCKS.
It smells like something died and they turned it into a face product and tried to market it as a blush/bronzer.
I get that it's "organic", but just cause it's organic doesn't mean it has to smell like it's formed out of cow patties. Ew.
There is NO shimmer in this at all. The blush is ew and not very pigmented.
The bronzer just makes your face look awkwardly dirty.
When you put it on your face, you can still smell it for a while afterwards.
Don't buy this. Do not waste your money on such a failure.
Too bad, the packaging is cute.

I would never recommend this to anyone. It smelled so bad!! I don't even know the smell was, it was just downright gross. I like the fact that it is ecofriendly, however it would be nice if the product actually worked. After about 6 swipes I finally got some colour, but it was too shimmery. Not worth the price AT ALL.
Give this as a gift to someone you dont like, so they can smell bad :)

I got this at Ulta because I was going to be doing an engagement photo shoot and my face was lighter than my neck. It's okay, but you have to be careful not to overapply since it can get a little orangey. Wouldn't repurchase cause I'm not a big bronzer girl and I didn't care for it that much.

A friend handed this down to me after she was dissatisfied with this so I can't complain about the price. The product, in short, sucks. The packaging is paper which starts to tear after a few uses. The product: The bronzer is muddy and grey looking in the pan, and it doesn't show up on the face. The blush looks pretty in the pan. After about 10 swipes with a brush, it shows up on the face very chalky but still a pretty colour (I had Ginger blush) and after about 1 hr it fades.
