Hii Everyone..!!!!
I am in to blush phase right now especially the one which gives natural look yet adds little color. NYX as a brand is very famous for their blushes. I was looking for few shades and sadly most of the shades are not available online. NYS does not have retail outlet too. Moreover they are pricier here in India.
So after a lot of research I zeroed NYX Mocha for me and today I will go the review on it.

What NYX says?
Our pressed powder blush delivers sheer, silky color that glides on, blends beautifully and creates a natural glow. The formula is richly-pigmented and lasts for hours.
Price: Rs.650/-
Quantity: 6.4 gms



Packaging: NYX Powder blushes come in a cute square pan which a transparent lid and that makes an ease to identify the color. The cap shuts perfectly however little mishandling can lead to breakage. The blush is housed in a quilted pattern which makes it look nice.

Shade: NYX Mocha is warm dusty pink color. It’s matte blush. The color is really nice for daily wear. It gives warmth to the cheeks and looks natural.

Texture and Pigmentation: The texture of this blush is smooth. Being a matte blush often it comes in the mind that it will be chalky but this is not. It is extremely pigmented blush; I need a single swipe to use it. It blends smoothly and gives a natural flush to the cheeks. Mocha is looks pretty on Indian skin tones. It does not clog pores and does not even break me once.
Staying Power: Well during hot sweaty summers it stays for good about 5-6 hours on my oily skin and in winters it stays a little longer around 6-7 hours. Overall I am pretty much impressed with its staying power.

Pros:
  • Lovely warm dusty pink color.
  • Extremely lovely for Indian skin tones.
  • Gives natural flush.
  • Matte Blush
  • Texture is smooth.
  • Very much pigmented.
  • Staying power is impressive.
  • Does not clog pores.
  • Never broke me out.

Cons:
  • It is slightly on the powdery side, it comes out on the pan.
  • Availability
  • Pricey considering it’s a drugstore brand.



Ratings: 4/5

Final Word: Nyx Mocha Blush is very nice subtle blush which you can use it for daily wear. It gives a good amount of warmth to the cheeks. The staying power is impressive and pigmentation is decent enough. I often reach out for this blush when in doubt and it never fails me to impress. If you want to try a blush from NYX and I would suggest do try this shade, am sure you will equally love it.
