Hello gorgeous ladies,

As you can probably tell, I am on a NYX blush kick! I recently reviewed some of the new high=definition blushes by NYX (Intuition, Hamptons, Crimson and Double Dare. Today, I would like to share with you my thoughts on yet another new High Definition Blush, this shade is called “Electro.”

My Experience with NYX Electro High Definition Blush:

Packaging:  NYX HD blushes come in a slim and sleek black compact with a cute ribbon closure which is the signature NYX bow clasp. They blush weighs 0.16 oz in size.

I think that the amount of product you get is quite generous for the price of just 8 dollars. All in all, I love NYX’s new packaging!
Pink blush

Color: The shade “Electro” is a super bright straight up fuchsia pink shade that does not contain any glitter or shimmer at all. This is a pure matte blush and does not have a sheen or glow to it. This is a perfect shade for those special occasions or night outs and will look very flattering on almost all skin tones. You sure need some courage and skill to use this baby!
Pink blush packaging

Pigmentation: This shade is crazy pigmented, so much so that the pigmentation can be an issue for a blush! This blush is intensely pigmented and you’re going to need a very light hand during application, even if your skin tone is deep. But still I feel like no matter how lightly applied that I end up having clown cheeks. I feel I am going to have to use the rest of the blush as an eyeshadow!
Bright pink blush

Texture:  The texture of this blush is super powdery. NYX calls this blush “silky,” but it isn’t quite silky to me! It is sure powdery, but not dry nor chalky.  Since this blush is so powdery, it tends to pick up a lot of product in the brush and ends up being so pigmented on the cheeks.

Longevity:  Also, the staying power is extremely impressive. The wear is incredible at around eight hours without fading. I can easily get a full day’s wear, even on my oily skin.

Quality: Overall, I would say that these high-definition blushes from NYX come at an excellent price, with crazy pigmentation, excellent staying power, but the texture of these blushes is quite powdery in my opinion. They are extremely powdery during application, though not powdery-looking on the skin and quite fragile. So, I am iffy about this blush, but I think I can make it work.

Pros of NYX Electro High Definition Blush:

  • Awesome packaging with pretty bow details.

Would I Recommend/Repurchase NYX Electro High Definition Blush?
Although the NYX HD Blushes are cheap, super pigment, and long wearing, I’m just not terribly impressed with them. The formula just didn’t really do it for me! If you can grab some on sale you might want to check them out but personally I think there are a lot of other budget blushes around that perform better. It’s up to you to decide, ladies!
