MUA vs MAC blusher madness!

I am totally obsessed with blusher at the minute i love wearing just blusher on a summer day after a good moisturize but i just love finding a good blusher.

When i found MUA's new blusher range for just £1.00 i was so excited to try it out. I bought a few at once. Today I am testing out the colour bon bon. I'm going to compare this blusher to the MAC blusher Coppertone which is £18.00.

First, MUA bon bon blusher, its a powder blush and for the price it is very pigmented and just over a nice skin finish blusher. It is a pinkish blusher and it sorta blends with your skin but with a few layers it comes out a  nice baby-doll finish. I love wearing this when I am feeling girly. It is slightly over powdery which i know sounds straight. You have to really shake this off the brush before you apply because it can go powdery on your cheeks but other than that it is great quality. I do believe all of MUA products are really nice and the quality is phenomenal for the price which i know makes me a very happy person!
The colour name goes hand in hand with the colour of a strawberry bon bon. I would recommend buying this blusher to anyone and of course there are a few other colours, for the price I'd recommend getting your hands on any colour they have in stock.

Moving onto this MAC blusher, I have to admit I am a huge fan of MA
C blushers and this coppertone colour is right up my street. I don't have a favorite blusher colour I tend to wake up on a morning i decide that day whether I am going to go for a pinky, bronzey, or peachy cheek colour. I do wear this a lot it comes out with a bronzey tone through then a sorta orangey/peachy tone to it. This gives a lovely effect on my cheek which I am totally loving at the minute. Sometime I do feel this takes a few layers on the cheek to actually give off a nice affect. I do really like this blusher though, and it is probably my favorite powder blusher. I've had this blusher since February 2013 and it is just starting to show I've used it.

MUA bon bon 

As you can see MUA is a similar pinkish tone to my skin which makes it more work to get this colour to stand off. Although it is a very natural finish to my skin when only applied lightly. The thing I like most about both of these blushers is that they both give a matte finish and in fact the MAC blusher is from the matte range. I do like this finish to my skin. Another thing I would pick up on is that the MUA blusher is very powdery to the point it can sometimes sit on your skin if you don't blow/shake it off the brush. 

Overall they are both nice blushers and since there is a £17.00 pound difference i feel like they both have good points. I would personally use the MAC blusher more just because it does give an overall better finish in my eyes and it is much easier to apply. The MUA is a great handbag blusher to use to top up threw the day and to take on trips away and nights out because it is so cheap. I really do recommend MUA products for the price they are real good products! :)
