Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso

 

  I have heard a lot of hype about Milani's Baked Blushes so I was excited to try them when Jasmine sent me the shade "Luminoso".  This blush is baked and in is shaped like a dome, much like MAC Mineralize Blushes.  I have never tried those blushes before so I cannot compare the two.

  This shade is known to be a dupe of Nars Orgasm and since I don't own it anymore I swatched it alongside my other coral blushes.  As you can see it is much more peach than my other blushes so I think it's pretty different than Nars Orgasm which is more pink.

  Luminoso looks shimmery in the pan but this doesn't transfer to your face.  I really like this shade as it's very bright which suits my fair skin.  This blush is also very pigmented so you need just the tiniest bit.  It is shimmery in the pan but it just as a subtle sheen when on the skin.

  The only downside of this product to me is the packaging.  It's way too bulky and I never use the brushes that come with blushes.  Since I'm so clumbsy I've already broken the packaging :(((( .  Luckily the blush didn't crack, so if anyone has depotted these please let me know. 

Availability: FTB Beauty Canada, $8 (shipping is around $7)

      You can get Milani at Superstore? Lol I'm so out of the loop since we have none here. I'll check a Superstore out next time I leave the city.

      Thank you :) I want to try it so badly as I've really been wanting Naked 2 but can't justify that price.

    It looks lovely on you! I never realized how peach it is! I have the MUA undressed palette and I can confirm it is very nice!

      Thanks Jasmine :) Yeah it's totally a pure peach which is great as you can see my other blushes are more coral/pinky. Yay, I'll be ordered it right after my ban!

    This looks so pretty and I wanted Stereo Rose so bad - after it had already sold out and I realized how perfect it was! So I am definitely going to check out this Milani blush since it looks like a good enough dupe!

    I have seen Milani products at the super-store in Mississauga! I have always been curious about their makeup
    This blush does look lovely on you!

    I agree, I own both Luminoso and Orgasm and I find them very different.
    I actually depotted Luminoso. It doesn't come in a pan, it's just baked in a terracotta pot thing (it's really strange, you'll see it if you do end up depotting) so you can just pry it out by squeezing something thin and sharp like a needle between the blush and the plastic and wiggling it a bit. xxx

    If you do depot this, it should fit nicely in the Z palette dome palettes. I really want to try it!

      I have depotted this but it's hard to attach a magnet to the back since it's in a clay pan. I think I'll be gluing it into a travel makeup jar.
