Product Review | Illamasqua Blush in Hussy

Hello, lovelies!  A few months ago I took a trip to Sephora, and I was super excited to see that they had an Illamasqua counter.  I had never seen Illamasqua sold anywhere before, and I had heard so many people rave about their blushes that I really wanted to try one.

The color Hussy pulled me in instantly.  It is such a beautiful pink.  I love that you can get a really light coverage that is still extremely pigmented, or you can build it up for a more dramatic look.

The color is so nice for summer.  I also love how extremely pigmented the color is.  It is a matte blush, which I really love.

Here's a swatch.  It is lighter on the swatch, but you can really build it up with no effort!

It pairs so nicely with a lot of highlighter because it doesn't make your cheeks looks super shiny, but allows the highlighter to shimmer while providing a nice pink flush.  I have been loving pairing it with a lot of Benefit's Moon Beam highlighter.  I feel like it gives me a nice, summery, glowy face that really complements light eyes and lips.
