REVIEW // MAKEUP REVOLUTION BLUSH PALETTE

Makeup Revolution Ultra Blush Palette in Hot Spice £8

I'm a sucker for a good palette. So on a recent browse around Superdrug on my lunch break, I came across a new display of Makeup Revolution products. I can't say I'd ever heard of the brand, but palettes are hard to come by when it comes to high-street makeup brands. The range of palettes and other products including bronzers and lipsticks was pretty impressive, and it's safe to say I was there a while deciding which products I should pick out to try.

The first item I picked out to review was the Ultra Blush Palette in Hot Spice. There are two blush palettes in the range, the other called Sugar and Spice which is a more cool-toned palette with bright pinks and mauves. I'm a sucker for a peachy-toned blush so the Hot Spice palette was a no-brainer.

'Our ULTRA Blush & Contour palette is perfect for the professional application desired by all of us. Perfect for highlighting and contouring too. Professional and highly pigmented, yet easy to blend, these contain 8 shades consisting of shimmer and matte blushers, merged baked blusher, and merged baked highlighter powder. The ULTIMATE blush palette offering you 8 shades in 1 to suit any occasion!'

I really had no idea what to expect from this palette when I initially tried it, but I was beyond impressed at the results. The shades suit my warm-toned skin perfectly, adding a boost of brightness in the current dull autumnal days. And the fact that there are two darker shades to use to bronze/contour and two marbled metallic shades to use as highlighters makes it all the more impressive in my eyes. This would be ideal to travel with, giving you a lovely range of shades in compact packaging.

PIGMENTATION: 8/10
Slightly powdery, but amazing colour payoff for the price.

VALUE FOR MONEY: 10/10
8 shades for £8, can't get much better value for money than that can you?

PACKAGING: 9/10
It's basic but compact and sleek, easily cleaned and there's a massive mirror inside.

I also picked up one of the limited edition eyeshadow palettes along with the Mattes palette which I will be reviewing pretty soon for you lovelies. 

Have you tried Makeup Revolution before?


Lotsa Love.
