Milani Baked Blushes

Hola Cupcakes!

     Today was a truly grueling day what with a full day of state testing. Actually it will be more of a fun filled week without the fun and more painstaking boredom. Anywho, while I was doing bathroom duty ALL day I was whiling away the hours thinking about what I could post today and I had a EUREKA moment! 
     I went to Target the other day and came across the new Milani Baked Blushes. I have put myself on a much needed blush diet vowing not to buy any new blushes but I saw there beauties and knew I had to have them. I saw them at Walmart and Walgreens also but Target sold them for about $6.50. These blushes are gorgeous and have been compared to MAC Mineralize blushes which go for around $28. I picked up three different shades and I love all of them with Coralina being my favorite. 
     The packaging is cute and compact. The container not only has your blush but it comes with a mirror and a brush for when you are on the go. I think that the gold face packaging is a cute addition and I would give it an A for effort.These blushes are not long wearing however no mineralized blushes really are. It is just the way they were born....like Lady Gaga. They do have great pigmentation and go on either really sheer or you can build it up. I have to say that when you swatch them on your finger they do feel a bit chalky but who cares what they feel like on your finger right? Also, the three that I own do have a fair amount of shimmer that is baked in but also flecks of actual glitter. Either silver or gold depending on the shade that I don't really love. It is the type of glitter that sort roams around your face and is big enough to actually grab with your fingers. It isn't that big a deal but could do without that addition. Other than that these blushes are really pretty and some have compared Rose D'Oro to MAC's Stereo Rose. I don't own Stereo Rose but it is a great color on its own. Take a look!!
