Purchased in December, lost in February, recently found in the vanity case I took to Chicago and still not used by the end of April, the review for the Creme Fresh Tint in Poppy is way overdue, especially since it's mostly sold out or considered 'antique' everywhere. I believe it was part of the spring collection, a collection that launched back in winter and whose limited items have already sold out by the first week of February. This I definitely call a spring collection - not. My local LMDB SA recently surprised me with some cake and yet another cream blush without knowing I already bought that exact same shade ages ago, so struggle with me through the review for a chance to get a brand-new, sealed one yourself at the end of this post.
Le Métier de Beauté's cream cheek product reminded me a lot of Bobbi Brown's pot rouge. Both come in a hard-shell black, round casing and can be used on lips and cheeks although I wouldn't recommend using LMBD's Creme Fresh Tint on flakey, sensitive lips, since it's supposed to be a cream-to-powder product and can easily dry out one's lips even worse. The Creme Fresh Tint, in fact, is a little creamier than the pot rouge, but just as pigmented. It retails for 28$, which makes it pricier by 4$ compared to the Pot Rouge. 
Honestly, I don't know why I got the product at all. I never use cream blushes, neither on my cheeks nor on my lips (because that's what specially formulated lipsticks are for), the colour ain't unique, either, it is a stunner, but also something I could easily live without. My local SA probably just talked me into getting it at any cost, so it might last forever in my stash. It's certainly not a bad product, it does what it's supposed to do, it's long-lasting and pleasantly staining, the overall concept just ain't my thing.
Considering I was involved in a really bad accident recently, I feel like taking a small break from blogging to prepare new posts and looks, which might distract me from replaying the seconds till the other car crashed into mine over and over again. It probably traumatized me more than I would ever admit and the injuries still hurt, since it's only 'Day 2'. I just hope you'll be loyal to the blog and me and patiently wait till I feel okay enough to return to blogging.
