Review: Milani Baked Blush in 01 Dolce Pink

Described appropriately by Milani as "pink shimmer", 01 Dolce Pink Baked Blush is certainly both.


Dolce Pink is a medium champagne-y pink with a TON of gold glitter.  Seriously.  This blush is super heavy on the gold glitter.  I found it a bit of a challenge to get the pink to really show up without it being incredibly glittery and having tons of fallout everywhere.  The gold glitter in the product is far more prominent than the pink color.  Sheered out, you pretty much lose the pink and are left with the glitter.


I do certainly have a soft spot for the Milani Baked Blushes.  At this price point and with the amount of product that you get, they're a fantastic deal.  However, depending on how you feel about glitter bombs, this may or may not be the product for you.

For me, it is mostly a miss.  I do think that it would probably work better as a highlighter than as a blush.



Milani Baked Blushes retail for $7.99 and contain 3.5 grams of product.

Overall: 6/10

Review: Milani Baked Powder Blush in Luminoso


Milani Baked Powder Blush in Luminoso is another item I picked up in a MakeUp Alley swap.  Like the other Milani blushes and bronzers I've tried, I was really impressed with this product and totally baffled as to why I never just buy any of these blushes, especially at the fantastic price point.



Luminoso is a pale peach blush with great pigmentation and staying power.  It does have a sheen but does not contain glitter.  I got a good 10 hours of wear out of the blush before it had faded significantly.


Like all of the Milani Baked Powder Blush, it contains 3.5 grams of product and retails for around $7.

Overall:  9/10

Review: Milani Baked Blush in Corallina

This is another blush that I picked up in a Make Up Alley swap.  It's the Milani Corallina baked blush.  Given my blush hoarding tendencies, I have no idea how I didn't already have one of these, but I didn't.  



The color is very on trend with the whole Pantone "Tangerine Tango" theme.  It is a stunning coral blush with gold glitter.  The glitter chunks are noticeable so if that's a deal breaker for you, you will want to skip this one.

I love this blush.  LOVE it.  

It applies so smoothly.  It has fantastic pigmentation.  I think it is just perfect for summer.  Since swapping for this blush, I've tried several other Milani blushes and while I think they are fantastic as well, this blush holds a particular place in my heart.



Like the MAC Mineralize blushes, the Milani baked blushes also contain 3.5 grams of product.  But unlike the MAC blushes which retail for $23.50, the Milani blushes retail for around $7.  And depending on where you get them, they may be coupons.

Overall:  10/10
