Now I know where to get foolproof, highly pigmented blush
I wanted to try out NYX for the first time this past XMAS, and they have so many different products, I didn't know where to start. So, I went with the blush as I love blush and after some investigating I knew their blushes would deliver true to pan color on application. Of course I battled over the Taupe for contouring or the bright red shade, but I settled on Pinky. Pink is a great go to when it comes to blushes. Pinky is so PIGMENTED. I need to dab my brush and try to get mere specks on it or it WILL BE TOO BRIGHT. Its a great color for when you need to add something more to a peach or coral- it will instantly kick up that notch. And of course Pinky looks great with your choice of contour/bronzer/highlighter. The package did not break in the mail, and the blush itself was intact, no breakage whatsoever. I did notice that these blushes are famed for not matching their online description swatch pictures, but I got lucky with Pinky- it is pretty straight forward. I would love to try out all the other colors but I have too many blushes as is.
MMM blush
I've had this product for a long time now. NYX is one of the best inexpensive, yet not drugstore nor department makeup brands! NYX really provides high-quality, department store-like makeup. Can't wait to try the rest of the colors.
Pros:
Very pigmented
Looks small, but I've used this everyday for the longest time and I haven't even hit pan yet
Matte color so it looks natural
Perfect for olive skin tones
Long-lasting
Great color payoff
Cons:
Nada
Really nice blushes
I own the colors peach and mauve. Peach is not really a peach color but a light pink color, perfect for spring. Mauve is also a pretty color which is more of a light brownish color which looks really natural. The pigmentation is good, but not as pigmented as the sleek blushes but I don't mind. They feel really soft on your skin. The packaging is also nice and decent. Recommended. (I attached a swatch foto, on the left is mauve and right is peach)

Awesome cheap thrill, Mauve is great for pale pink-toned skin
Right now I have these in Mauve in Raisin, and I use them almost every day. Raisin is a bit dark for my skin so I use it as a contouring color underneath some lighter blush (it gives off a 90's Xena-esque effect!). Mauve is awesome when I want a natural flush of color on my face. It's really close to my skin tone so I usually have to go over it a couple times to get some color payoff.
Overall they're an awesome find if you want an alternative to more expensive blushes.
Good for fair skin
I just got this blush. I thought it looked really boring in the pan, but it is perfect on my light skin-tone. I will use this as a everyday blush, when I just want a flush of color.
Amazing Blush!
These.Blushes.Are.AMAZING!!! Really inexpensive, they have great color pigmentation, AND they last throughout the day! I own only two but I will definitely buy more! I have 'Mocha' and 'Desert Rose'. Mocha is the perfect peachy pink color for my tan skin, I wear it almost everyday and Desert Rose is a more vibrant hot pink with shimmer in it. Try it out for yourself! :)
Great flush of color, blends easily, a bit glittery..
I use this for everyday and it is easy to apply, and gives my cheeks a nice varm pink glow. I like that the packaging is small and that the lid is see-through, overall a good cheap blush. Though some might think Pinched is a bit to glittery for everyday wear.
I am looking to get more colors. So if anyone have any tips on another great color for fair skin, let me know :)
Update: Have been getting some small bumps on my cheeks lately, I think the reason is from wearing this blush everyday.. Have ordered Terra Cotta and Angel also, so will continue to try the NYX blushes. Hoping the bumps goes away.!
