REVIEW: Essence Blush Up!

Essence blush up

Essence Blush Up is a multicolor matte powder blush. It comes in gradient effect. I bought the shade "Heat wave" which has orange and pink gradient. You can use each color individually if you want orange or pink blush, or by combining all to get coral shade. So you can get 3 different shades in one case and on very affordable price. I usually pick the powder from the center to get a beautiful peachy coral cheeks. These shades are great for spring. It has good pigmentation. It comes in transparent plastic case.

Beauty Haul

I went to the Centrepoint (middle east department store) last week and guess what? There was 25% off on all makeup stuff. I picked Rimmel scandal eyes kohl kajal in nude shade, NYX lip liner in hot red, Sally Hansen manicure set and Miracle gel nail polish in red eye.
I really wanted to get my hands on these products and I was lucky to got them on sale price. I will definitely give reviews on each one of them in future.
