NYX Professional Makeup Sweet Cheeks Matte Blush, Bang Bang

I'm very fair, I used to use the old Nyx blush in taupe as a contour. I couldn't find it anywhere so I decided to buy this one to see if it's the same thing. Unfortunately it's NOT! This is definitely a blush color! That being said, when I used it as a blush I fell in love with it. I need to be careful because i'm very fair but with a light hand it looks so beautiful! One of my new favorites!

I got the Taupe shade because I had seen it recommended as a natural, actually cool toned contour for light skin tones. I am very fair with pink undertones, and have tried quite a few contours. This is pigmented, buildable, blends out great, and has a great texture as well as my perfect contour shade. Very impressed.

Read that this was a good contour shade for light skin a long time ago AND SHIELD HAVE BOUGHT IT THEN. Looks so natural and not too warm. Lovely feel and smooth applying.

Highly pigmented great color (Summer Breeze). Creamy texture dries down to powder. Recommended by influencer Dominique Sachse so I tried it and loved it!

I've had this blush for almost 5 years now, and it's comparable to a high-end blush. It's super pigmented, creamy, and lightweight. Would repurchase.

This blush is actually the perfect contour for those of us with the same skin tone as Casper and his friends, and I'm super happy with it.

Nyx sweet cheeks matte blush in So Taupe is the perfect contour color for pale girls. Now you can be Goth with cut cheek bones!

Great contour powder! Perfect color, blends well and wears well. I'll try it as an eyeshadow as well at some point.

I received my order pretty fast. The color pops and I love it. However the blush only stays on for a few hours at most 2-3 hrs. I'm giving it 4 stars due to the lack of longevity when wearing the blush.

The color looks beautiful (So Taupe) and it came in the mail unbroken and pristine. I was very excited to use it but the packaging is extremely difficult to open. There's no gap between the cover and the base to wedge anything into to pry it open either. I'm thinking about throwing it against the wall or something to just break the package open. At least you know it won't accidentally open in your bag/purse.
