Hey there lovelies, welcome back to my page! I've been hearing from all different bloggers that NYX would be arriving in Australia soon and guess what? It has! I went to my local Target in Highpoint Shopping Centre and the lady there was still stocking the shelf and I knew I needed to get my hands on something straight away. I have never tried any face products from NYX before so I'm really happy that it's available in Australia since it's easier to access and I don't have to pay for shipping.
These blushes retail in Target for $9.95 which is a little more pricey than usual but I was willing to pay for it because I just wanted to try out something straight away! Both blushes have 4g of product which is pretty decent for a blush, seeing as you only need very little product when applying it to the cheeks. I picked up the shades 'Peach' which is a rosy pinkish pink with a matte finish and 'Pinched' which is a pinky shade with gold shimmer; kind of like a rose gold. Peach doesn't look like a peachy shade at all, but has more of a pink tone to it which is still very pretty.
The packaging is made from plastic like most drugstore packaging and has a large window which is awesome because you can see the actual shade on the inside. The blush is very compact and smaller than a MAC blush which means that it's good for travel.
As you can see from the swatches down the bottom, Peach is a very pinkish blush and Pinched is a very pinky blush with gold shimmer. When swatched and sheered out, they look quite similar in colour but Peach looks a little deeper. I haven't used these blushes yet but I'm so excited to try them out!
Comment down below and tell me what you think of the NYX blushes and what else you would recommend from the brand!

I love Pinched but you already know that! Try Mocha!
ReplyDeleteThat was one of the shades on the shelves! They only had about 5 powder blushes there and that was one of them! Very pretty when I swatched it hehe
DeleteThese look gorgeous, would love to see what you thought of them in a review

I will definitely be trying them out asap and will tell you how I like them!
DeleteLove the look of these blushes but I was quite surprised to see the shade of your 'Pinched' blush! Mine is more peachy-pink (cheap NARS Orgasm dupe) and not as cool toned as yours :S
ReplyDeleteOh really?! That's interesting yet odd at the same time, did you purchase your one online? It could be my camera .. haha!
DeleteSeriously loving the look of Pinched! I think that price is pretty decent, considering anywhere else you want to buy it from has shipping costs attached.. having it right now makes it a little easier to swallow the amount! Can't wait for NYX to hit my local store!

It's a gorgeous shade! And also quite pigmented with just one swipe so really you're getting your moneys worth because you only need a little! Cherry Culture is having a 20% off storewide but I knew that shipping would be ridiculous so it was kinda fate that NYX arrived at my local Target today :D!
