Milani Baked Blush Review

I have the shade Coralina and it is a beautiful light toned pink with tiny flecks of gold and white in it. In the pan it definitely looks a little darker than it appears on the cheeks. It's a baked product in pretty gold packaging which feels a little cheap, but hey, it's super affordable! It goes on very pigmented with a beautiful sheen in it - definitely something that matte lovers aren't going to like. It blends nicely and just leaves you looking naturally flushed. My only complaint with this product is that it's a little TOO pigmented, so I find it hard to get the right amount of products on my cheeks without having to blend it into oblivion. The lasting power is fine, but NO blushes last on me for some reason so I'm not sure if my opinion is valid on this aspect.

This blush is so different to anything I have in my collection- its a true warm peach with a little shimmer. I would normally sway towards more pink tones but this is such a refreshing change and looks good with more orangey toned lips. It has the perfect amount of pigment IMO- not so much you hit clown zone, and not so little that you have to apply and reapply to get the colour payoff. It blends really beautifully into the cheekbones without looking powdery. I'm thinking this will look even better in summer when I have a little more colour and am rocking more of a bronze look. Am stoked to have this as part of my growing blush collection!

I first heard about these while watching youtube videos, seeing beauty guru's rave about the Milani baked blushes over and over again made me curious to try them..

First off, the price is incredible. Approx $7USD and around $15NZD makes these super affordable, cheaper than a Maybelline/Revlon etc blush at Farmers.

Packaging is nice for 'drugstore', I quite like the gold/matte gold contrast however it is bulky and the lid/top isn't flat so makes stacking and storing difficult! I also really like how the top is transparent so you can see the colour without having to flip it over or open it.

I first purchased Luminoso to try as this is the most 'hyped' colour in the line. It is an incredible shimmery coral shade that looks super natural on the cheeks. If you're not used to wearing coral blushes or not sure if you'll suit them - start with this one!

The formula is smooth and not super crazy pigmented which I like - its easy to build up a natural looking colour that blends out well rather than end up with a huge patch of colour on your cheeks. It looks almost glittery in the pan but on the cheeks it picks up as a nice healthy shimmery glow.

After success with Luminoso I picked up another shade, Rose D'Oro and loved it just as much. The colour is darker and more pink with no coral tones - but still just as beautiful.

The only reason I didn't give this product a full 5 stars is that personally I think the shade range is average. I would love to see some lighter pinks/peaches and even some matte shades would be nice.

If you're on the fence about purchasing these blushes I would say go for it!! The two I own have quickly jumped into my top 5 blushes (I own way too many!) and I will repurchase in a heartbeat if they ever run out.

I love this blush, it’s a natural looking blush and also has a bit of shimmer in it, so you could skip highlighter altogether! My only disappointment is that as. I’ve as the packaging looks the little clear part of mine has fallen out and so it’s annoying every time I use it to have to push that part back in the right way for it to close!

For a brand that I hadn't heard of until coming across it on Youtube, I didn't really know what to expect from this product, but it lives up to the hype, believe me! I have this in the shade 'Luminoso', probably the most popular shade, and I'd say it's my favourite go-to blush. When I first swatched it I was far from disappointed - It’s super pigmented so a little goes a long way! Next I was worried that it would be too much for my very light skin but was surprised to find that it suited just fine, creating a gorgeous highlighting glow. It makes my cheeks pop like crazy, but in a good way – if applied lightly it still looks beautiful and natural. I think this would suit various skin tones, it’s so warm and lovely. I’d really like to try this in the other stunning shades too!

everyone seems to have at least one of these blushes in their collection, and it seems like i am no exception. I brought this blush because i heard milani brushes were pretty much the best drug store blushes available, also it seems like luminoso is a favorite for many blogger, and makeup lovers out there so for around $7 usd, i had to pick this up (from bluescandal).

This baked blush comes in a circular compact with a gold edge, and a mostly transparant lid. The blush has two compartments, one holding the dome shape blush, and the other compartment holding a brush and mirror. The compact clicks into place and closes securley. Actually the packaging does not feel like a cheap brand, it feels quite sturdy. However, the second compartment does make a almost rattly noise when you move the blush around which does make it feel a bit cheap.

Anyway, the blush is a beautiful peachy colour, with a golden shimmery quality. I find it slightly powdery, but very pigmented. Once i apply this and blend it into my cheeks, the colour is lovely. It provides a peachy glow to my cheeks that makes my skin look really healthy and natural. The shimmery glitter adds a luminous glow, that i love since i go for the dewey, glowy look versus a matte look so fits in perfectly with my other makeup. This blush is long lasting, and even looks great layered with other blushes (such as Benefit's majorette) to create more intense looks. Plus the blush is long wearing.

I love this blush, and will be picking up more from the Milani Baked blush range, and reckon you should too

I purchased this baked blush in luminoso due to hearing amazing things about it over YouTube and is actually the first baked blush I ever purchased..

The packaging from a distance looks expensive and sturdy with its gold edge and almost transparent lid that has 'milani' written on the top but when you look closer at the packaging you notice have cheap and flimsy it is and is prone to stratches.

When I first swatched this product I didn't really get what all the hype was about because of it being a very light apricot coral color and I felt that no way could I pull of this shade of blush. It is highly pigmented so you only need a little bit of product on your blush and build up the desired amount. I absolutely love this shade on my light skin as it gives me a nice glow, natural blush look and isn't to in your face.

I definitely want to collect more shades of this baked blush because for the price they are amazing and they all look beautiful.

I heard so many people rave about this so I finally decided to try it and I got the one in Luminoso. The packaging is pretty good, it's just a really nice metalic gold colour. I really love this blush, it is super pigmented so you only need a tiny amount and it is also super affordable. It does have specks of glitter so it gives your face a nice shimmery glow.
