Makeup Revolution Blushing Hearts in "Peachy Keen Heart" - Review and Swatches


Hello everyone! The new drugstore brand that has taken the beauty world by storm is Makeup Revolution. I did a small haul of their products and you guys requested a review of the Blushing Hearts Triple Baked Blusher in Peachy Keen Heart first so here goes!

Product Claims

Blush Heaven - 3 shades in each blush merged together - Blush to send you to Heaven!



What Do I Think?

This product is said to be a dupe for the Two Faced Sweethearts Perfect Flush Blushes but I do not own any of them so I cannot really compare them. Most people love this packaging because it is cute but I learnt the hard way how impractical it really is. When I received my order I was devastated to discover that the smallest third of the product had almost completely separated from the rest of the blush! Thankfully, that piece did not fall out of its heart shaped box and I am careful about handling it now. It does look quite attractive because of the cute feminine design.

The actual product has a pretty baked surface with three different strips. The shimmer is really fine and plays hide and seek with the light so it’s really flattering. The texture is unbelievably silky and allows effortless blending. The fallout is not horrendous and the packaging captures most of it so you don’t have to worry about seeing it everywhere. So by now you guys have already calculated the number of ways you can use this fascinating product. Both the lighter shades can serve as highlighters or mixed with the central strip to create a lovely new blush colour.

I am really pleased with the pigmentation as you can see in the facial swatches with my neutral tone. I did not even have to build up the intensity to clownish levels or alter the photos to make the colour show up! Its staying power on my combination skin is impressive too. It lasts over 6 hours on me without primer in winter without fading the slightest bit. All in all a really useful good quality product with an affordable price tag.





“a” is a pale gold
“b” is a medium rosy pink
“c” is a light to medium peach depending on your skin shade
“a+b” give a stunning rose gold
“b+c” give a rosy peach color
“a+b+c” gives a unique coral beautifully balanced between pink and peach
