The blush comes in a sleek black compact.
It closes tightly and opens easily, but I’m not sure if it’s comfortable for girls with long nails.
On the back there’s a sticker with information also, as the paper packaging won’t live long.
I have it in Soft Flush ОВ07.
At the beginning, I was blown away by the color, as it looked so bright and intense to me, but it turned out to be alright.
There’s also a thin film that separates a compact mirror and a blush.
The full size mirror is great, it shows the whole face at a time. It’s really convenient to use.
I think that the
absence of a brush attached is not a huge hindrance, ‘cause it’s better to use a special brush for the purpose.
The SOFT FLUSH contains 2 shades, the first and the biggest is bright coral, the second is light beige.
The brighter color is almost matte, the lighter is shimmering. Both shades are highly pigmented. From right to left: light color, dark color, mix.
The texture is dry and silky. My fingers are literally gliding over it, when I touch it. It’s amazing! The shades blend out easily despite their high pigmentation and bright colors. Besides, they aren’t dusty. What is more, they can be applied without any effort. It would suffice to swirl a brush into the compact once to get a soft flush for everyday makeup. You can apply a bigger amount to create a bright evening makeup.
You can also define some areas with highlighter. If you mix both colors together, the result is not matte, but satin. You can use the blush in many ways. It lasts really well on me without smudging.
Pros:
♥ two shades
♥ silky texture
♥ full size mirror
♥ easy to apply and blend out
♥ not dusty
♥ good staying power
As for cons, there are none for me. The blush is so pleasant to use, I love it! If coral shades suit your skin tone, I bet you’ll love this NYX product and its quality too. I think that it’s more reasonable to purchase an ombre instead of single-color blush. In such a way you can regulate the brightness of your makeup or emphasize particular areas. Moreover, the shades look perfect when combined.
Thank you for your attention!
