Milani Blush

>> Wednesday, May 5, 2010




This is one of my favorite blushes at the moment. It is Milani Minerals Blush in Luminous. Ive heard that this is a great dupe for NARS orgasm. I have yet to try NARS orgasm so I would love any input from anyone who has it. This is a very sheer blush, its difficult to capture in photos (w/ a regular camera) but looks amazing in person. It is a peachy-pink color that has a nice gold shimmer to it. This blush is a perfect pair to any smokey or dramatic eye look, and it since it is sheer you can still wear it as an everyday blush.

PROS:
- Inexpensive ($5.99)
- Can be found at your local drugstore
- Great color
- Animal cruelty free!
CONS
- Doesn't last long
NEUTRAL (can be good or bad based on person preference):
- Very Sheer
- Shimmery

with flash

The compact comes with its own brush and mirror on the reverse side of the pan

You can kind of see the shimmer to it here. Sorry the picture quality isn't great, I don't have photoshop or anything I can only crop my pics :/

Here's a quick 5 min face I did using that blush, as you can see it is very sheer

All in all I would definitely purchase this blush again, I could see this becoming a staple for me

Wow, that looks a lot like MAC's Melba! I've heard raves about this particular blush. What are you wearing on your lips? It's gorgeous

@eleventhOfapril - Oh no! maybe you can purchase online? Have you tried cherryculture.com???

@awful beautiful disarray - Aww thank you so much, I musyt say I think your awfully gorgeous yourself love! and yay for blogger friends! hehe

@D'd Beauty Corner - Thanks! Im wearing just lip liner from ELFs Sugar Kiss brand and chapstick. Ive found that when I put the liner all over my lips and blend it with some balm it stays on all day. The best part of that liner is that its 50 cents!!! and it comes with its own sharpener, They come in pairs, one is a shimmery mauve color, and the other (which Im wearing) is a natural browny pink color. No names on the pencil itself though. Ill do some swatches soon :)

oh my gosh you are so beautiful!
That really looks like a great blush. I love sheer blushes, don't care much for heavy ones. I like blushes that I can build up for color verses the ones that cake on really dark/bright

Thanks for the comment Dana! You should pick this blush up, if you like sheer then this would be perfect for you!!! Cant beat the price at $5.99.
