Everyone knows that Makeup Revolution are releasing new things constantly (no complaints here) and recently they launched a range of new blush palettes which I just had to go pick one up. I feel like Makeup Revolution do blushes perfectly and I was really intrigued by the Blush Goddess Palette as it contained not only blushes but also highlighters too. Honestly, I am not someone who used to give too much thought to blusher, I always had one from Rimmel that I always used but when that started to run out I knew I had to pick another one up. I feel like my face always need a pop of colour on my cheeks because of how pale I am and I need to look like I'm alive haha! So, when Makeup Revolution dropped 3 new blush palettes in one day, I just knew I had to get one and try them out. After looking at YouTube videos on line and seeing Tati show this one and how much she loves it, I knew that it would be a good one for me as the colours looked brilliant for my skin tone. The highlight shades also won me over just a little bit too.
The palette contains eight circular pans of powder blushes and highlighters, they do say that they are all blushes but that definitely isn't the case for the first row as you can clearly see that they are highlighters. I personally love these palettes as I like that I can use my brush and mix the shades to make a custom shade if I really want to. The palette overall is lightweight and slime so it doesn't take up a lot of room on my dressing table or even in my makeup bag when travelling.
As I mentioned before, the first row are all highlighters instead of blushes but you could use them as a blush topper if you really wanted to. The first shade looks like a beige shade in the palette but when you swatch it or apply it to your skin it comes out more of a peachy pink shade with a silver sheen shimmer in it which does look nice on my skin as I am pale and it's a gorgeous shade for me. The second shade is slightly more cooler in tone than the first one and it is a lot less in your face and glittery than the first. It is more finely milled so it looks more like a subtle glow than a serious highlight. The third shade looks very intimidating, even in the palette. When you swatch it, it looks like a buttery yellow gold shade. This one is very pigmented and you do not need a lot of this at all, I did at first and then looked slightly ridiculous with a very intense highligh. It can be worn quite sheerly if you use only a little and tap off the excess but you can build it up if you prefer a more glowy or intense highlight. The fourth and final highlight shade on the top rown is quite unique compared to the other ones as it doesn't contain any shimmer at all, instead it is more of a satin highlight. It has a orangey peach tone to it with a beige tint so it could perhaps be a light bronzer shade but it does make a gorgeous and subtle highlight on my skin tone.
Onto the blush shades, as a whole they are pretty smooth and creamy just like the highlighters, they are not chalky or hard to blend at all. The first shade on the bottom row is a peachy coral shade which is really pigmented and so easy to blend out. This shade would suit so many skin tones as it is so gorgeous. The second shade is my favourite one of the four, it is a mauvey pink shade with a little brown undertone that compliments any makeup look that you do, it looks so pretty as an everyday shade and again, so easy to blend out. The third shade is definitely a bright shade, it is a bright light cool toned pink which makes it a little too bright for my skin tone, but if you mix it with the second shade it looks stunning. The fourth and final shade on the bottom row is definitely the brightest and most pigmented shade in this palette, it is a bold dark pink shade with a satin finish whilst the other shades are completely matte. I don't tend to use this last shade that often because it is too bright for my skin tone and is a little hard to wear.
