This formula can be used dry for a high intensity color finish, or used wet for a natural sheer finish.

The finest blusher in a stick is now available in 2 bold, matte shades. Use strong and vibrant, or sheer with this creamy, long wear blush that provides buildable coverage in just a few swipes. Designed for multiple use across cheeks and lips, each stick can be applied dry for hi-intensity color or applied wet for a smooth, sheer finish.

Makeup Revolution USA One Sculpt Highlight Stick ($9.00 from Ulta): This is one of my favorite highlighters these days because it is so easy to apply with fingertips, and it offers the most beautiful ethereal glow.

Makeup Revolution USA Golden Sugar 2 Rose Gold Ultra Professional Blush Palette & Rose Gold Lipstick in Chauffeur | Review and Swatches

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

There are a few stand-out cosmetics companies that offer very high quality products at unbelievably affordable drugstore prices, and Makeup Revolution USA is most definitely among them. Makeup Revolution USA Golden Sugar 2 Rose Gold Ultra Professional Blush Palette ($10.00 at Ulta) & MAKEUP REVOLUTION Rose Gold Lipstick in Chauffeur ($5.00 at Ulta) are two examples of exceptional deals for GORGEOUS products.

Makeup Revolution USA Golden Sugar 2 Rose Gold Ultra Professional Blush Palette ($10.00 for  0.45 oz. from Ulta): This face palette is so breathtakingly beautiful that I nearly gasped when I opened it. All of the powders are ultra-finely milled, and nearly creamy in consistency. The colors range from pinks to rose golds, and warm golden peaches to coppers. The palette offers considerable versatility in that you can customize the shades and finishes by blending them to your heart's delight.

All of the shades glide across the skin effortlessly and deposit color evenly, and they neither settle into pores, nor do they emphasize fine lines. As you can see from the swatches, several of the shades have high shimmer content, but can be used with a light touch as highlighters, or can be blended with the other shades. Additionally a couple of the shades can be used as bronzers, or for light contouring.

According to Makeup Revolution USA,

MAKEUP REVOLUTION Rose Gold Lipstick in Chauffeur ($5.00 from Ulta): Chauffeur is a very pretty rosy nude shade that offers buildable coverage, but can also be sheered out for a very light wash of color.
