If you know me by now, you know blush is my weakness. But you know what’s an even bigger weakness? LORAC products. Put the two together and it’s pure bliss. I had high expectations for this new Unzipped Cheek Palette and it lives up to every single one of them! Let’s take a closer look!
The LORAC Unzipped Cheek Palette, which contains 2 matte & 2 shimmer blushes, retails for $30 and also comes with an ultra pigmented Alter Ego lipstick in the shade Girl Next Door. All of the blushes are 0.42 oz and pack quite the punch pigmentation wise. I would highly recommend using a light hand or even a stipple brush (My favorite is from ELF) to apply these.
Shades Include :
Underrated – Light medium pink with a matte finish.
Unashamed – Bright light / medium blue based pink with a matte finish
Unapologetic – Medium brown with a slight golden sheen
Unimaginable – Light / medium peach shimmer
I am VERY much impressed by the pigmentation on all of these. They are all so soft, so easy to blend and look beautiful on the cheeks. If you’re a huge fan of LORAC shadows, you absolutely need this palette in your life. Plus, it’s so cute and compact and would make the perfect travel companion!
I really love the fact they included different finishes in this palette. Unapologetic can definitely be used for a blush or for a sun kissed bronze glow. I have been using Unimaginable as a highlight on my cheekbones and it’s gorgeous!
As far as the lipstick goes, it’s okay. I find this line to be very drying on my lips so I probably will be passing it along to someone else. It’s a nice bonus, but not something I will go out and purchase additional shades of.
Swatches :
Underrated, Unashamed, Unapologetic, Unimaginable, Girl Next Door

Oh, I need some more of the Alter Ego Lipsticks!! The blushes look nice! <3
Too bad the Alter Ego lipsticks are drying coz I love that Girl Next Door shade, but my lips are so dry to begin with.
Fabulous palette! The colors look great both alone and together.
This looks awesome! I especially like the Barbie pink one – unabashed. That is totally one I would rock!
I love this palette as well, the quality of each blush was not compromised at all with the low price tag. I feel the same about the lipstick though, it was so dry and the color on me was awful! At least the blushes make up for it! 🙂
A) I love the names. Super powerful and super awesome. B) I love a great pigmented blush. There is nothing that sucks more than a blush that has no color and no staying power. I need to get this quad- now!! Thanks for this!
Great palette – and I love the lipstick!
Those colors are so pretty and pigmented on your skin! I might pick it up!
This palette is everything! SO PRETTY! I need it because of your swatches <3
I would wear the heck out of Underrated and Unimaginable. The lipstick color is lovely, too, but unless it’s a matte it’s got no excuse to be drying 🙂
Wow I need this palette in my life. The lipstick is very pretty too. I think I need this one too.
Cute palette! I would totally pick it up if it was CF after seeing your swatches 🙂
What a pretty palette. It has just about everything you need.
What a gorgeous blush palette!
I have one Alter Ego lipstick, and it sucks all the moisture out of my lips. Their matte crayons are sooo much nicer. This blush palette looks like a winner! I love most Lorac products, too.
Good price for the quality for sure!
Underrated definitely looks like my kinda color!
This palette is on my wishlist, I love every color in it!
Great swatches–now I NEED it! I’m really loving the Unzipped Gold palette (have it on today) and this would be a perfect addition. Thanks for the review. #enabler
Those blush shades are riiiight up my alley!
I bought this palette when it first came out and I use it everyday over all my other blushes! I use the two bottom shades for a natural everyday look. Such good quality blush!
