Two in One Highlighting Blush from the drugstore! ♡

Two in One Highlighting Blush! ♡

Hey everybody! I am sorry for the break in between posts, it's my final week before spring break and I just got a new job, so I got a little busy. But from here on out, the posts should be coming pretty constantly! 

So today I wanted to share with you guys my favourite drugstore highlighting blush. Sometimes I find it's kind of a pain to have to go from contouring to blush to highlighting all before class or work, and it usually results in skipping steps. Have no fear, this product is the answer to all of our face makeup problems! 



So this holy grail find right here is the Hard Candy Blush Crush Baked Blush in the shade 127 Honeymoon. Personally, I find the detailing on the packaging to be a little too "Ed Hardie" for my liking, but overall, it's not bad for a drugstore product especially considering the cheap cost. 

Now onto the product itself. This is a baked blush, so the product comes off onto the brush very easily. I have not yet tried using it wet...I prefer to use all of my makeup products dry. Now when looking at this blush, I can see it has a satin finish but I was not prepared for the gorgeous highlight it gave my cheeks. It is such a beautiful glistening light pink, it gives off the same quality highlight as my Benefit Watsup Highlighter. 


Now because this product can be used as a blush and highlighter in one (I would definitely not recommend using a highlight separately in conjunction with this blush), I tend to start by placing the product on my cheek bones and then sweeping it towards my temple, but higher up than you normally would with blush. I try to bring it along the top of my cheek bones for that incandescent healthy glow. 

All in all, Hard Candy never ceases to amaze me with the quality of their cheaply priced products. Well done Hard Candy! I would 100% recommend this to all of you no matter what skin tone.

And that's the way I see it!
