Chantecaille Elephant Cheek Shade ♡ Review + Swatches

I am excited to share with you my thoughts and swatches of the Chantecaille Elephant Cheek Shade, this is my first time trying out Chantecaille products, it is also my first time reviewing the brand on my blog and I am already loving their products' quality. It is so high-end, luxury and it feels like million of dollars haha.

From my research (still not as familiar with the brand): Chantecaille is a luxury cosmetics line that is recognized worldwide for its technologically advance skincare and beauty products featuring high concentrations of pure, natural botanicals that nourish and revitalize the skin.

Chantecaille Elephant Cheek Shade is a Limited Edition item from the Safari Collection, the blush is described as an ultra-fine coated powder, a cheek shade that applies effortlessly and adhere beautifully. Five percent of the proceeds of this cheek shade will be donated to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, an organisation that rescues baby elephant.

I may not be familiar with the brand but I have seen and saved a lot of their animals embossed blushes and eyeshadows to my shopping wishlists. You can probably guessed it that I bought the Elephant Cheek Shade based on its embossed elephant packaging and you can also agree that the blush is so adorable right?! I also have the wolf blush and it is as cute as the elephant.

I am sorry, but I must say that the outside packaging on the Chantecaille Cheek Shade is boring and I dislike that it leaves a lot of finger prints. Without looking at online promotions or looking at the actual blush, you can probably never guessed that it's so daymn cute inside.

The Elephant Cheek Shade is small and it is refillable, as soon as you opened the compact, you will see a cute rose gold elephant with a peachy pink base. The color on the elephant is over-spray (is that what it's called?), the rose gold disappeared as soon as I have mixed and swirl the blush together. Not going to lie, it is quite a disappointment, because the elephant was what caught my attention and gave my brain the signal that I need this blush. *shrug*

Chantecaille Elephant Cheek Shade in Fun (oh okay, there's an actual name for this blush) is described as a soft apricot with a hint of gold, it is described as a color that is suitable for a wide range of skin tones. The Cheek Shade has a peachy pink base and a rose gold elephant, once swirled together the colour is shown as a light peach. 

Elephant Cheek Shade has a 80 to 90 percent colour pay-off and it could easily turned you into a crown face if you are heavy handed, but I like that the texture is so smooth and easily blended; and it worn well for up to eight hours on me, bright but wearable and super long-wearing.

Chantecaille Elephant Cheek Shade is stated as a Limited Edition item on all websites that I have checked, it's been a limited item since 2012 and I bet that the company has set it as a Limited Edition item to catch your attention, because it did caught my attention!

Elephant Cheek Shade is available on a majority of high-end department stores and websites, I bought mine from Nordstrom for USD $38.00.

  1. Gorgeous! I've read a lot about this brand and their base products but this blush looks so soft and easy to use! I wish that inner elephant shade wasn't just a spray over, I love that bronzey tone to it.
