Powder Blush

Holy moly what's going on here? My blush heart is a little broken... 💔 Normally, my reviews are positive. I've been thinking for a long time but want to share this story with you anyway. As you know now, I'm a huge blush junkie. One of my first purchased blush is the MAC powder blush in the color Melba. I was thrilled with this product. The color is beautiful soft coral-Peach. Ideal for more of a natural look. Unfortunately, the fun didn't last long... After using the blush a few times, I noticed that a “happy” layer came over it. I'm having a hard time describing it. But in the picture above, you can see what I mean. At the beginning, it didn't do that much for me because the blush was still working well at that time. But after a few days, I didn't get any pigment from the blush anymore. It was so bad at some point that I decided to scrape off the layer with scissors (hence those crazy stripes in the blush). After that, I got full container of pigment again. Strangely enough, the 'happy' layer came over the blush again, which made the story start again. After a while, I stopped ruining the blush and it's been untouched with the rest of my makeup for months. Mortal sin! 💔 Still, I was curious if I got the same effect with another powder blush. You won't believe it but with my MAC powder blush in the color Mocha I had exactly the same problem. I really get what no snars of it. I didn't use greasy skincare products at that time and I clean my brushes regularly. I think MAC is one of the best makeup brands myself. I'm in love with their lipsticks and mineralize blush. But this flop is very bad. Wanted to share this with you anyway. Have you been bothered by this too?

I didn't get a color off the blush. Only when I loosened it, color came off. I finally got rid of the blush. Maybe it was my product, as most reviews are positive.

Is this one worth the money or get others, what are really nice and beautiful blushes?
