Hard Candy Fox in a Box in Truth or Dare

Hey gorgeous!

A couple of months ago, I realized that I don't have a marshmallow pink blush that's why I bought this blush online from a trusted seller who sold it to me for Php 200.00.

Hard Candy Fox in a Box in Truth or Dare

This is the first product I got from the brand.

I don't know much about Hard Candy so I just went to the website to check it out. Here's a brief product description that I found there:

Feeling foxy? These highly pigmented, multi-color powder compacts blend together perfectly for a sweet and sassy flush look. Available in blushing quads and bronzing duos. Use each shade alone or sweep the custom applicator brush across all colors for an all over multi-dimensional look.

And more info on the box:

And they are also labeled at the bottom of the product:


I like the packaging. It's pretty and quite edgy. It looks clean and feminine. 


I like that it has an applicator and that it has a garter that holds it.

The bristles of the brush are soft but too thin for my liking. I don't use it. :P

Closeup of the product

The left one is a bronzer. I like it because it's not the usual brick tone and not too dark. I also like that it has gold shimmers to add that warm glow on your face. 

The pink shade does have the soft, marshmallow color. I super love it! And it also has fine shimmers that doesn't make it look too flat when applied.

Check out the swatches below:
It's pigmented and it's not powdery. Just try not using big brushes to avoid accidentally swiping the other shade. I once applied the pink blush when I noticed I had bronzer at the middle of the apples of my cheeks. :P

So here's a picture of me with the bronzer at the bottom of my cheekbones and the blush on the apples of my cheeks. I don't use too much blush so I'm liking the effect this product gives.

What do you think of Hard Candy Fox in a Box in Truth or Dare? What do you think of the shades? Do you know other brands that offer the same combo?

Hello loves!

Okay... so I thought I told myself that I won't do any makeup shopping for the month of January, but I guess I wasn't able to grasp the idea because the second I stepped in a mall, I already went inside a makeup store and was so giddy to buy something.
