Milani Baked Powder Blush "Bella Rosa" Review & Swatches!!!

Milani Baked Powder Blush 'Bella Rosa'
Bella Rosa!!! The blush got an Italian name which according to my understanding means something beautiful and young as a rose. The blush completely justifies its name. It is such a gorgeous rosy pink colour. It is completely matte with no shimmer at all unlike other Milani baked blushes. Since I am more of a matte blushes fan, this has become my go-to blush these days :).



The blush comes in an attractive golden packaging with a mirror and a small brush. The brush is not going to help you in applying the product so it's almost of no use.

Talking about pigmentation...this blush is HIGHLY pigmented. A slight swirl on the pan goes a long way. Its pigmentation, however, doesn't effect its blending power. Blending it into the skin is convenient. Moreover, the staying power is INCREDIBLE. I put it on for almost 7-8 hours and it stayed on my cheeks for all time long despite all sweating. Isn't this amazing??? It gives your cheeks such a beautiful hue and make you look fresh and rosy. It's a colour that would suit almost all the skin tones. Yes!!!



Recently Milani has increased prices of its products. Now you can get 3.5g of this product for 1050 PKR.
In Pakistan, and particularly in Lahore, I haven't seen Milani products in stores yet. However, you can get them online at beautyarena.pk and just4girls.pk.

Overall, I am really happy to own this beauty and it gets a 4.5/5 from my side :).

Which Milani Baked blush do you own or wish to own? What do you like most about it?

Hoping to hear from you. Thank you for reading!! xoxo

First things first!!##

Hello everyone,

This is my first ever post on my very own blog and I am sOooper excited about it. Since I am a newbie in this domain, there is still a lot to add to my blog.
It's raining here in Lahore (Pakistan) and it is in this lovely weather that I have started this venture that I had back in my mind long ago but never took the plunge.
Soon, Insha Allah, I would be posting my reviews and thoughts about all the things related to beauty and life. Hoping for a happening pursuit ahead, see you soon. :)
