Makeup Revolution The Matte Blush In Nude Review

I have a love/hate relationship with Makeup Revolution. Some of their products perform beautifully. Others not so much. After being disappointed with their Sugar & Spice Blush Palette, I didn't buy anything from them again. LOL Two beauty bloggers, Ashley of Ashley Sue Makeup and Lily of Beauty With Lily, showcased Makeup Revolution's The Matte Blush in Nude (I linked their reviews) and my eyes lit up. I became really smitten with the swatches I saw. I thought it would be a great color for me, and for only $5 I was like what do I have to lose!?! LOL I purchased it from ULTA and I love it. The brand describes it as a nude with a touch of pink. So I guess it's considered a pinkish-brown. It's a beautiful color! Now, let me tell you about Makeup Revolution! Their makeup is PIGMENTED! HIGHLY PIGMENTED! ALL OF IT! If you swirl your blush brush in this blush (tongue-twister), you better tap, tappity, tap...tap...tap (off the excess). Even after tapping, you'll have enough to do BOTH cheeks. The results are beautiful, but that you need to know. Now I used a blush brush, but when I went back to Lily's video she suggested using a stippling brush. I will have to try that the next time. This blush should last a really long time...like YEARS! HaHaHa You don't need much! It also has staying power! It never faded on me. It's beautiful. There are 5 other shades to choose from, so catch one of ULTA's sales where they sell them Buy 1, Get 1 50% Off. I'm also wearing NYX Wicked Lippie in Wrath.

  Makeup Revolution The Matte Blush in Nude is Sweet

It's Time For A Sweet Surprise! I haven't done one of these in a couple of months (ahem June)! My Sweet Surprise recipient is Shireen of Reflection of Sanity blog. Shireen's blog encompasses makeup & skincare reviews, exercise (yoga), personal fashion, her family and boy does she have some delicious recipes to share. I think I've saved all of them! What I admire about Shireen is her personality (she's super fun, funny and frank) and her desire to try new things. Shireen's skincare and makeup reviews are the best! She will have you laughing over her past experiences, trials & tribulations. She's very relatable! And she gives excellent, detailed reviews! You can read through them with ease & never get bored. Plus, you will learn about some wonderful new brands! I can also appreciate her honesty. She's not afraid to say if a product is good or bad (despite it being sponsored). So, she's very credible! Shireen is a faithful commenter. She will comment on your blog and even reply back to comments on her own blog. She reaches out to bloggers on social media (instagram & twitter). She does daily instagram stories. She juggles ALL of these things while being there for her family. I'll never forget one of our first conversations (via email or something). Shireen said, Kim are you Asian? LMAO I was like, no Shireen I'm Black ... African American! HaHaHa We both laughed! That brings me to the next thing I like about her...she's diverse! She reaches out to all! Shireen SHINES! That's why I'm gifting her Laura Geller's Ballerina, Peach Glow, Gilded Honey and Charming Pink Highlighters! Shireen, you were also the winner of my Coola Giveaway, but I was waiting for you to come back from your vacation. Shireen, you are lovely both inside & out! Continue teaching & reaching out to others! Spread positivity throughout the blogosphere. Always let your beautiful light SHINE! I'm very proud of you.
