i Adore Milani Baked Blushes

Blushes are freaking amazing! Why? Because a good blush can give you a natural youthful flirty glow and really make your face radiate. It is also important to always wear a blush over a face covered with foundation in order to put some color back on your face that you muted out to achieve the most natural look. An awesome blush works with your skin tone, is highly pigmented, and blends well. There are so many blush formulas on the market: cream blushes, cheek stains, powders, baked blushes, and more! There are some amazing quality department store blushes, but what’s just as great are drugstore blushes, namely the Milani baked blushes!

I heard a lot of fantastic things about the Milani baked blushes and it’s been really difficult to come across them, but when I finally saw them at a Target out of my city, I had to buy it and try it out! The Target I went to unfortunately only had 3 colors left and because I haven’t tried these blushes yet I only bought one. I purchased the color Dolce Pink and I must agree with everybody else, these blushes are phenomenal!

Dolce Pink is a beautiful deep pink color with swirling flecks of gold shimmers baked in. These blushes are so easy to blend out which allows you to have a natural looking flush on your cheeks. The gold shimmers complement my olive skin tone flawlessly and doesn’t create an overwhelming glitter effect after blended out. These blushes are highly pigmented which makes it so worth the $8 price tag. What’s also amazing about this line of blushes is that it comes in 9 varying shades, which is perfect for people of all skin tones. Bottom line, I LOVE these blushes. Their quality is AMAZING. I love these more than MAC blushes, but that’s just me. I cannot wait to try out the colors Luminoso and Coralina.

Aside from the fantastic quality of the actual product, the packaging isn’t too bad either. I must admit it’s a little bit bulky, but that’s because it comes with a built-in compact mirror and mini travel brush. I hardly ever use sponges, brushes, or applicators that come with my makeup, instead I opt for my own brushes because I like the way it applies better. However, I love that Milani included the mini brush because it is convenient if you’re ever in a pinch. I don’t have any huge complaints about the packaging because it is not inconvenient or messy which is the most important thing to me.

I definitely would repurchase!
