Hi lovelies! I know I haven’t been active lately, the first three months of 2014 has been so hectic for me, and I’m sure you pretties noticed that. Anyway, I have a new review for you and it’s a part of my Drugstore/Budget-friendly review series. I know, it doesn’t look like I have a series because I don’t update as often, but I promise to update more soon. Anyway, here are my thoughts about the Fashion 21 Single Blush On in ‘M01′ & ‘M02′ .

PACKAGING

This blush comes with a sturdy, plastic packaging, a screw-on transparent lid that makes it easier for everyone to see the shade. This type of packaging is quite typical to all Fashion 21 blushes. The blush comes in a convex/curved form, but it doesn’t have that ‘baked blush’ texture. The plastic feels durable and it doesn’t feel cheap even though it’s drugstore and it’s fit for traveling, although I’ll keep an eye on where I put the lid.

SHADE AND APPLICATION

These blushes even though they’re referred to as ‘Single Blush On’ comes in two shades (lighter and darker shades of either orange or brown). I love the idea because you can get to either use just one shade or you can combine both.

M01 – Is a beautiful matte ‘tomato’ shade. Not too orange, not too red. It offers two shades, one a bit lighter, leaning on the coral-y side of tomato/orange while the other is a bit darker, a bit more red, giving you that beautiful summer flush.

M02 – Is a subtle matte brown shade, can be used for contouring if you have a fair skin, especially around the nose area. If you don’t have a fair skin, it’s also pretty when used as a blush. I like using it as a subtle contour when I don’t want that total chiseled look.

CONSISTENCY & PERFORMANCE

These blushes are actually quite pigmented, they’re a bit on the powdery side especially ‘M02′ but they don’t have a ton of fall outs. They offer a nice color payoff and it has a smooth texture. They’re very easy to blend and quite buildable to your preferred intensity.

LONGEVITY

These Single Blush ons lasted on my face for approximately four hours. Keep in mind though that I was inside an air conditioned room the whole time I was testing the product out. If you’re going to wear this outside, I would advise you to keep it in your makeup bag so you can do some retouching.

SCENT, ETC

The product/blush ons doesn’t smell anything in particular. If they do, they smell like powder, which is pretty ordinary, and it’s not a foul scent. These blushers contain TALC, MICA and PARABENS. Just a heads up to those who are pretty mindful of those ingredients.

• THE VERDICT •

I love these blushes and I think they’re great for every day use. They’re affordable and what’s more is that they’re MATTE. It’s not everyday that you find a good matte blusher. Fashion 21 proved that Filipino drugstore makeup can create a good quality MATTE blush ons. The quality is not bad. I just hope that they come out with more shade selections soon, and probably darker contouring shades. I haven’t worn this outside on a hot summer day so I am not so sure whether it will last as long. I hope so, though. I also have a normal to dry skin so I’m not sure whether these blushers will offer the same longevity. Either way, I recommend these blushers to those who are looking for a good affordable blush ons.
• WORTH THE MONEY? REPURCHASE? •
YES!
It is worth the money. For PhP 140 you get three shades (the lighter, the darker and when you blend those two) in one blush on and you can’t get any better than that.

Repurchase? Perhaps a different shade when they decide to come out with more options.

So those are my thoughts regarding the Fashion 21 Single Blush On in ‘M01′ & ‘M02′ . How about you pretties? Have you tried these blushers? Have you tried Fashion 21 Single Blush On? What’s your favorite shade? Let me know through the comments below!
