MILANI Baked Blush - Dolce Pink

Not just shimmery - full on SPARKLY. This is not a good blush for my liking and I will not repurchase. The tone is good for my light/medium skin, but the sparkles ruin it for me. At least it's cheap!!

I should have read the reviews for this before purchasing. I didn't realize how golden and sparkly it was. I was looking more for a warm pink but not this sparkly. I agree shade wise it is a dupe for the Nars orgasm but does look more glittery and pigmented than the Nars and less flattering IMO. I do however like the Milani Luminoso which is a nice peachy shade, luminous but without the gold sparkles found in the Dolce Pink.

Why I didn’t like it:More shimmer than pigmentation,if you’re looking for something that is naturally pinky glowy kind of thing it won’t work for you.it felt a bit harsh on the skin too so if you have any texture stay away from this blush because the shimmer will emphasize that.another drawback is it’s longevity lasts 2-3 hours at most

Why I liked it:the colour tends to look very pretty in soft lighting and that’s why I only use it for creating bold evening looks.

I got luminso and it's one of my favorite blushes.

i had such high hopes for this but... no. I don't like this at all. it looked beautiful on the model (I bought this from a site where they try the blushes on a model in a video) and when I swatch it with my finger but in reality it's too much glitter and the actual color doesn't really show up, no matter which brush I use. I have the Bella Bellini as well, which I like a lot better. not a fan of the mirror, I wish they put it in the lid instead, if that makes sense...

It has chunky glitter which was quite noticeable on my large pored cheeks. The golden pink shade was nice but it didn't last long on my oily skin. Personally, I wouldn't recommend this product!

I am a true makeup addict who has finally found her holy grail blush!
I truly cannot explain just how much I have fallen in love with Milani baked blushes.

First of all, the pigmentation of color blew my mind.
You don't have to apply layer after layer to build color, one or two swipes with your blush brush and you're good to go!
Secondly, they apply and blend beyond beautifully!
The color lasts all day long with no need for touch-ups.

Hands down, this is my favorite blush of all time.
(It only took me 41 years to find it)
The color Dolce Pink is to die for, with a beautiful, natural blushing glow!
I also bought the colors Luminoso and Berry Amore.
Absolutely gorgeous.
Very addicting!
If you only buy one blush this year, make sure it's Milani baked blush...you won't be disappointed!

I have never tried NARS Orgasm. Just wanted to get that out there since this particular shade is supposed to be a straight dupe for it. However, I have been using ELF's Studio Blush in the shade Tickled Pink, which is also supposed to be a dupe, and I did not realize how much that one lacked pigment until I tried this one.

Upon swatching this I was a little nervous because it is quite shimmery. However, upon applying this over my favorite BB cream (Maybelline Dream Fresh BB), it. Looked. AMAZING.

I feel like I am experiencing what a truly high quality blush should be. I've used other blushes too, such as Cover Girl Cheekers, and this is just so much more beautiful than any that I've tried. It goes on as this beautiful, glowy flush that made my skin look healthy and vibrant. After setting with powder and setting spray this lasted a solid 8 hours, and at the end of the day I still looked amazing.

I personally feel that the shimmer in this, though quite strong on a swatch, looks very natural when applied to skin on the face. However, if you prefer less shimmer I would recommend Luminoso, which is more of a peachy shade with less noticeable shimmer. All in all, this is my new favorite and I am going to use it EVERY DAY.

One of the best drugstore blushes. The peachy-pink colour with the gold shimmer really suits well with my complexion (NC20). The golden shimmer does not exemplify my pores and that is the best part (I found that the golden shimmer does accentuate my pores when I use NARS Orgasm). It had a very good colour payoff so a little touch goes a long way. It doesn't last all day though, so a touch up is needed at the end of the day. I found the small brush and mirror really useful for touch-ups, if not better than proper brushes. The baked blush is ready to be used. Unlike NYX baked blushes, which you have to somehow scrape the hard layer of the blush off before you can start to see the colour payoff.

I bought this as an alternative to NARS Orgasm and was really excited about it. However there is too much shimmer in it & it's not really a great dupe. Even with primer, this product doesn't stay in one play, so the shimmery glitter ends up migrating across your face. It's an ok blush & is at a good price, but it definitely did not meet the expectations set with other reviews.
