Maybelline New York Face Studio Master Hi-Light Review

More blush purchases! Someone stop me!! Seriously, I am ashamed to say I shopped again. Thankfully, this time it's only drugstore stuff that I bought and in my defense the Maybelline Face Studio Master Hi-Light blushes that I bought turned out to be so so great.

These blushes currently come in 6 colors - Nude, Pink Rose, Coral, Mauve, Light Bronze and Deep Bronze.

I picked the two shades that really spoke to me, which were Pink Rose and Mauve. I have to say my favorite is Mauve. The philosophy behind these blushes is that each pan is made of 4 shades. They are in small sections across the pan so it's not really possible to concentrate on a shade but when you swirl all the colors together the blush looks amazing. They are super pigmented and in each pan there are two shimmery shades and two mattes, so these blushes come off with a lovely glow and have an inherent highlighting quality (hence the name, I guess). There is no glitter in sight though, just soft shimmer.

Each blush comes with 0.32 oz of product which is a lot, I doubt I'll ever run out. They retail for anywhere between $7.49 to $10.49 depending on where you are. They are also fragrance free, non-comedogenic & suitable for all skin types.

My one gripe with these blushes is that the shimmery shades kick off a lot of powder whenever I stick my brush in the pan. It can mean that you end up with a messy blush container but more importantly I'm worried that I am going to run out of my shimmery shades in each pan before making a dent in the matte ones!! Anyone else found the same issue?

So in summary, I love these. You can find them in any drugstore and they are part of the permanent line.
