My local pharmacy was selling out all of their L'Oreal stock at 50% off so I dove into the discount bin and bought a True Match blush for around $13AUD (instead of the usual $25.95)! I like bright and pretty pink and peachy blush shades but it's also great to have something a bit more nude-toned to wear as a natural, low key tone for every day and Nude Pink looked like it would fit that bill for me.
As you can see in the open pan Nude Pink is the perfect description for this blush as it's a neutral toned nude pink making it perfectly suited for fair to medium skin-toned girls, or *ahem* women, like me. The packaging of pan itself is a great little design for a drugstore/pharmacy product as it has two compartments: the blush in the top, and a wide, curved brush sits in the bottom compartment which also houses a mirror, making this a great blush for carrying in my makeup purse. I do find the brush is a bit stiff for effective blending but I always carry a blush brush in my makeup bag ready to use for touch ups anyway.
It's all about the product! What I love most about this blush is that it doesn't just give me ultra natural colour on my cheeks, it also gives my cheeks a subtle glow - now we're not talking glitter or shimmer, we're definitely talking glow here. My research assures me I'm not going mad either as according to the L'Oreal website the formulation "...features light-reflecting, ultra-fine pearlescent particles that melt delicately onto the skin producing a transparent kiss of colour..."
In terms of wear, the colour does last most of the day and I'll get through my working day without the need for a touch up.

I love my little bargain - I'd never have discovered this blush if not for the discount bin!
What makeup item have you bought on a whim that you love?
That's all for now
Vita :)
