okay.. i know i can't help myself.. and i decided to buy another blush.. hahaha.. i had 3 colors in mind, pinched (which i've already bought, reviewed here), apricot and mauve. well, mauve came a little bit later since i'm a little bit confuse on what to get.. natural or angel or mauve.. but then i decided on mauve. don't ask me why.. since i figured if i don't like mauve, i can easily try the other one next time. both are enough for me, one coral, and one pink. one is great for everyday, and the other one more sparky but can be toned down for everyday use.
this is the description from nyx website: our pressed powder blush delivers sheer, silky color that glides on easily, blends beautifully and creates a natural glow. the formula is richly-pigmented and lasts for hours. and mauve is described as matte light mauve.
the picture on the website is nowhere near the real product. on website, it looks like brownish blush, but in reality, it's more on the pink side.
the packaging: it's a single blush in a black plastic square pan with a transparent cover. the blush inside is decorated with pyramids on the surface.
the texture: it's powdery, but pinched is more powdery than mauve. probably similar to sephora.
the color: for fair skin girls, this one might be for you. though one swipe might not be enough. it's great to give a natural flush, perfect for everyday usage, but for those medium color to deep skin color girls, you might want to skip this, as this might not shown on your skin.
the lasting power: err.. since my skin is more toward normal skin nowadays, somehow my makeup stick longer than usual. but i guess pinched lasts longer than mauve, probably since it's more vibrant than mauve.
for my pink blush, this is okay.. though for that price, i might be adventurous and try something else.. after all, nyx has 24 colors to try, so why stop now?
