does it work?? maybelline sunkisser blush (sol search)

The summer season is well underway now that August has arrived. The temperatures are scorching and there is lots of sunshine. This is ideal for all of the summer lovers out there, but in truth, my mind keeps wandering to fall. The "ber" months are so close yet so far away. Sigh! Despite the lure of sweater weather and fallen leaves, I am doing my best to stay present and make the most of the remaining weeks of summer. One product is making that a little bit easier, which is the Sunkisser Blush from Maybelline. Keep reading for all of the important product details and the answer to the question: does it work??

According to the brand, the Sunkisser Blush "delivers glowy, sunkissed cheeks that last." The Sunkisser Blush from Maybelline is described as ultra-blendable and buildable with a formula that melts into the skin and has a natural glow with up to 12 hour wear. There are ten shades to choose from, with some that are more bronzey, like Electric Bronze and Summer in the City, and others that are more traditional blush shades, with lots of pink and coral colours to choose from. The shade that I have been using is called Sol Search, which is described as a nude pink tone with golden pearls. Sol Search looks a little more golden than anything else, but it certainly fits into the summer makeup category well. This product definitely provides sparkle and shine. 

So...does it work?? Yes. This blush definitely delivers glowy and sunkissed cheeks, though the 12 hour claim is a bit much. The product has longevity, but it wears down throughout the day, especially when worn in warm conditions. I like the warm golden colour of Sol Search, the large doe foot applicator that makes application quick and easy, and the beautiful shimmery glow on the cheeks. This is a great product for the summer season (or whenever you want to create a warm makeup look) but it tends to work a little bit better for me when it is layered underneath a powder blush. I have found myself applying this on the cheeks and then adding a small amount of powder blush on the apples of the cheeks. This sets the product and intensifies the colour, but still allows all of that beautiful glow to shine through. This isn't necessarily a must-have drugstore beauty item, but is a nice-to-have liquid blush from Maybelline. It works well, adds lots of glow to the skin, and comes in many different shades.
