I've always liked a pop of colour on my cheeks, whether it's a pastel/pale pink or a cute swish of coral, blushers are one of my all time favourite beauty products.
I've recently purchased 3 MUA blushers from Superdrug and at a retail price of £1 each, these cute little blushers are one of the best I've ever tried.

| MUA Blushers; shades from left-'Lolly, 'Candyfloss' and 'Cupcake' |
My first view of the blushes was the fact they are so pigmented; they do claim to be one of the longest lasting blushes on the market at the moment. I would say the packaging isn't that eye catching it's a bit plain and boring, and with a clear lid it could smash easily. However, unless you are buying from Benefit Cosmetics you can't expect too much from packaging design!

These blushers are very long lasting, but can fade easily if not applied properly. My favourite shade is probably Lolly or Cupcake, as they suit my skintone better, flush! The only problem is while applying and blending in, little bits of the blush tend to fall off your brush, but for £1 you can't go wrong! And the names are super cute too!!
I would like to try the MUA Cream blushers as I would be able to show swatches, but here are the 3 shades below.
Lolly
Lolly is probably my favourite shade as I think it's perfect for the spring/summer time as it has a very matte finish and looks lovely too. As there is a lot of pastels and cute colours in the Spring/Summer time a pop of creative coral will polish the flawless, fresh Spring look and Lolly is perfect for this!
Candyfloss
I love how pigmented and bold Candyfloss is, it lasts for hours and is the brightest of the shades I have. I don't think this colour would suit everyone, but is great for a bold statement with your look. It's a great pink and one of the nicest shades by MUA.
Cupcake
Cupcake is probably the shade I've used the most out of all 3 as it is very easy to wear and gives you a natural look. It definitely suits my skin tone and it's one of the best blushers I've ever used, better than some higher brand ones. I do have one or two friends who tried this and found it hard to blend in but overall I think it's great, especially for someone who is trying blusher for the first time.
