If you know me or if you've been reading my blog for a while you will know that I am a blush girl! So when I saw an email from Revolution to try out their new Balm Glow product I jumped at the chance. This product is a 3 in 1(multi-use products are my favourites) it is a blush, lip balm and eyeshadow all in one which makes it amazing and the shades that have are just gorgeous. In today's post ill be sharing with you my thoughts on the New Balm Glow product from Revolution!


I was so excited when I got the email from Revolution, I didn't even read what the product was and then when it arrived it was even better! Since last year u have been obsessed with cream blush and use it basically every day so the fact that I got the chance to try out a new 3 in 1 product from Revolution that is also a cream blush was so exciting. I love any products that are multi use,  you get three different products for the price of one, what could be better than that. With this product you can a blush, lip balm and eyeshadow all in one and all for an affordable price of only £5.99! I was lucky enough to receive four shades of the Balm Glows, Flushed Pink, Sunkissed Nude, Peach Bliss and Deep Plum and of these shades are gorgeous and I think their is a shade for everyone. These would be a perfect product to create a full face make-up look with just one item, making it perfect for travelling on speedy make-up days.

Packaging 

I think the packaging of these balms is very cute, they come in a rose gold tin slightly bigger than a vaseline tin would be and they are small enough that they can be chucked into your bag for reapplying throughout the day. In each pot, you get 32g of product which I think is a really generous amount considering that the Fast Base Blush by Revolution has 14g! As this is a three-in-one product you may be using it a lot more so you may run out quicker but I still think you get a good amount of product for the price! 


First impression 

The first thing I did when I get these products was to swatch them, I wanted to know the consistency of the ball and what finish it would have in the skin. For a balm, the colour payoff from all of the different shades was really good, especially for the shades Deep Plum and Flushed Pink, they are both very pigmented when swatched on the skin. Out of all of the shades I really don't think I could pick a favourite, they are all really pretty and can be worn with different make-up looks and neither day or night. 

Before using these balms I wasn't too sure how they would look on the lips vs the eyes us the cheeks. I haven't ever used a blush/balm before so I wasn't sure if I would make my skin look too oily which I do not like as I already have oily skin but I was pleasantly surprised by the look. When I applied this product to my cheeks I dipped a stilling brush right into the pot and then blended it out onto my cheeks, firstly I noticed that it was very pigmented and you only need to use a small amount of product before blending it out and then I noticed that once it's blended into the skin it gives off a slight glow but does not make me look greasy at all. 


Then I tried to use it as a lip balm and obviously, it worked perfectly, I apply this product just using my fingers and it applies only the lips beautifully and leaves a nice tint in the lips for a flush of colour. For a more pigmented look on the lips you can also apply it with a lip brush. I have been using this balm since it arrived and I have been chucking the different shades into my bag it is perfect for reapplying throughout the day. Another thing that im really enjoying about this balm is that it's really comfortable to wear on the lips, it feels like you have a nourishing lip mask on, while wearing this balm it is hydrating your lips so it's perfect for wearing if you're at work or if you will be having makeup on all day, there's nothing I hate more than my lips feeling sticky and this balm doesn't do that at all.

Lastly, I tried this product on the eyes, I have never tried a balm product or had glossy eyelids before so I didn't really know what to expect. I have seen the look on Instagram and too but was too nervous to try it out myself. Surprising I really liked the look, it didn't make my eyes look too greasy but it gave a nice flush of colour to the lids which I think looks lovely for a daytime look when you don't have ages to spend applying eyeshadow. What I also really like about this product is that it feels comfortable on the eyelid, I wasn't too sure how it would feel but I actually didn't even notice I was wearing it which I loved. 


Overall I am in love with these balms, they are the perfect product to have in your collection because they are easy and quick to use, they are perfect for on-the-go makeup looks and j will definitely be taking these away with me on holiday because they are so simple to use.
