Hard Candy Fox in a Box Blush - Review

 One day, while looking through the makeup at Walmart, I came across the Hard Candy Cosmetics section! Although they have many interesting products, the one thing that stood out to me were the fox in a box blushes! I had heard a lot about them on youtube so I decided to give them a try. The one that stood out to me was spicy and sweet because it was a coral blush as opposed to the other one they had which was a hot pink. At around $6 I figured it was worth a try!

This blush is made up of 4 different squares of colour, a coral (w/shimmer), a neutral brown(w/shimmer), a light pink (w/shimmer) and a hot pink. You can either swirl your brush in the product combining the colours and giving you a light coral or use each colour individually, both of which I have done. In the pan, 3 of the 4 shades appear to have shimmer but when applied I didn't see any shimmer at all. The texture is smooth and not overly powdery, I find the ELF Studio Blushes to be a lot more powdery than this. When applied I didn't experience any fallout.

The packaging of this product is very similar to the Benefit boxed blushes, which contributes to why everyone was so intrigued by them. The lid flips back and is sealed with a magnet. The blush also comes with an applicator but it is pretty much useless so I just threw it out.

Overall, I think this is a great blush to add to your collection. There are a few colours to choose from, there are a variety of different ways to use the product and it is a great price! If you ever see this product while shopping at your local Walmart, I highly suggest you pick it up, and if you do, let me know what you think!

OVERALL RATING= 10/10
