Today, I will be blogging about one of my current favorite blushes which is the Maybelline Cheeky Glow Blush in Peachy Sweetie. If you have been reading my blog, I also included this in my October 2015 MakeUp and Skin Care Favorites which you can also read here.
Anyway, moving on, I have been eyeing this blush for quite some time now but never got to buying it since during that time it was at its original price of Php 199 and quite honestly the kuripot side of me found it quite expensive for its price for its size.
I passed by Mercury Drug one morning before going home (I used to work the night shift) to buy my parents' vitamins and some toiletries, when I was lining up on the cashier counter, I saw this blush there and saw that they have a Php50 permanent markdown which makes the price Php 149.00 only. Without second thoughts, I picked this up and paid for it. I was so excited to try it out that when I got home, first thing I did was to swatch it. Quite honestly, it is not that pigmented that you will look like a clown or you will look like Ronald McDonald with very red cheeks. Instead, what I liked about this is that it does give that natural blush and effect glow on your face since it does have shimmer in it.
Price: Php 149.00
Net Wt. 7grams
Its Claims:
Lightweight and silky smooth, Blush Studio Cheeky Glow blends flawlessly for our most natural finish.
Instructions/ How To Use:
Apply with fingers or brush. Softly Apply into cheeks. Suitable for everyday use.

So this is how the product looks like:
Though it appears very pink, the pigmentation is not that much which for the first time, really appealed to me because it does offer natural and glowing blush effect.
So anyway, just this past Sunday evening, I went out for dinner and coffee with friends, and I used this since I wanted my makeup look to look simple yet presentable and natural, and this is my simple makeup look where I used this blush:
If you notice my blush, it's just light and it does look natural. That is really why I love this product.
What I like:
- With the permanent markdown, it's more affordable with the price of Php 149.00
- Accesible: available in SM Department Stores- Beauty Department, Watsons, and even in Mercury Drug (this is where I purchased this product.)
- It does hold true to its claims of being blendable, lightweight with a silky smooth finish.
- It does have a natural looking finish.
- The packaging is cute and tiny which is easier for you to see the shade from it since the cover is transparent and the packaging itself is small and cute and can easily fit in your makeup kit.
- Longevity is very good. Since I've been using this more often than my other
blushes, it does last me the whole day, or in the case that I went out with friends just the past Sunday evening, it did last me the whole evening.
- Packaging is sleek and cute and you can easily put it inside your makeup kit.
- The cover is plastic but transparent so you can easily see the product and shade inside so you won't make a mistake in buying the shade that you like.
-It gives a natural blush finish and a little goes a long way.
What I don't like:
- For its price, it doesn't have a blush applicator/ blush brush included.
REPURCHASE: YES!!
I have been loving this blush lately and I have been using this a lot whenever I go out. In fact, for now, I tend to ignore my other blushes since I prefer using this one instead. :)
So that is all for now. How about you, how was your experience with this blush? And if there are any other products you would like me to review, feel free to comment down below or you can also DM and follow me in Instagram: Yhang_Chua for upcoming posts. :) You can also follow me in Bloglovin.com:)
