Review:  If you have read any of my Revolution Pro or Makeup Revolution reviews lately, you will notice that I have been impressed with their packaging.  Their sister brand, XX Revolution, has created 16 powder blushes that comes with a very high-end looking light pink packaging.  The compact is made out of pink plastic with a mirror.  The outer packaging is a textured straight lines that goes vertically.  The box is reflective pink with black typography and the blush shade is on the opening tab printed on a sticker.  At its $10 price point, the packaging is already worth it.  It is a warm orange matte blush; however, it does not feel very drying on the skin like many matte powders or blushes.  This blush is very pigmented, but you can also decrease its intensity by using a light hand.  It is easy to apply and blends nicely on top of other liquid or powder products.  It is also long-wearing.  I love that it comes in 16 shades with a variety of intensity in terms of skin tone range.  It feels like there is a shade for every one.  I definitely recommend this blush.  It is really beautiful on the skin.  I may have to pick up a few more shades.
