I fell in love with Mally Highlighting Blush at first sight. I read a review of it online. Fortunately for me, it landed in my mailbox a couple of weeks later.
Just look at this gorgeous all-in-one blush/highlighter! Frankly, I would call this a blush-highlighter palette because you can dip your brush into each shade individually, if you like, and I do. I love using each of the three different pink blushes on their own. Same with the pale pink and the champagne highlighters. I still haven’t tried the purple on its own, but now that I see it swatched, I think I could wear it solo.
Here are swatches of the shades individually, and the last swatch is all the shades mixed together.
I often blend all the shades together for a beautiful pink blush with a built-in satiny glow (I think it’s kind of hard to see it in the swatch photo above). To be honest, I have to be careful with highlighter. If I apply too much of it to my upper cheekbones or under my brows, I think I end up calling attention to wrinkles, so building highlighter into my blush and making my cheeks glow seems to be a better way to go.
Oh, and did I mention that it is very long wearing? That was a great surprise. This is the same photo of me that I posted yesterday, but I am wearing Mally Highlighting Blush blended. I think it shows up better in this pic than in the swatch above.
Plus the compact itself is so cute! You know me, I love the sparkle. And the gold glitter atop the hot pink compact definitely caught my eye too. It’s such fun to use.
I am so excited about the Mally Highlighting Blush, I can’t recommend it more highly! And I mostly use cream blushes. But I just adore this family of pink shades as well as the ease of having a variety of shades and highlighters all in one compact!
For $28 for 12 g/0.32 oz., I think it is such a good buy. It’s a big compact! Plus, if you sign up for emails on the Mally website, you get 15% off your first purchase and another 5% off through Ebates. Mally Highlighting Blush is also sold at Ulta, Kohl’s and QVC. Mally Beauty is a cruelty free brand.

I really need to buy this beautiful blush. I remember Marcia reviewing it a while ago and I gasped, and now I gasp again! Not only is the pattern beautiful, but the lovely pink color it creates when mixed is really lovely!
I love this blush and highlighter “palette”, and I think you would too. The shades are a pink lovers dream, and it’s so lovely to look at!
I love “Mally” I use several of her products and have for years. I even have her book. So good. I use her clear Evercolor Poreless Face Defender, several of her Starlight Waterproof eyeliners, blush, her Neutralizer Face Primer is really nice. I really really love her eyelid primer in the green compact (but she doesn’t offer it anymore 😩. Luckily I really stocked up on it. Her eyebrow Belivable Brows one of the BEST! I always watch her shows when she’s on QVC. So adorable and full of life.
Mally is adorable, DiEtta, and I’m glad to hear that you’re a real fan! I also had the Evercolor Poreless Face Defender, but one of my friends wanted it so much that I gave it to her since I had a similar one from YSL. I have one of her cream stick eyeshadows, and it is one of my favorites. When Ulta has it’s coupon around the holidays, I intend to get another one. You really got my attention when you mentioned the eyelid primer because I haven’t found one I love ask much as the old formula from UD that was reformulated, but I’m sad to hear that she doesn’t make it anymore, boo! I will keep my eyes open for Mally on QVC because she definitely is fun to watch!
This looks so beautiful in the pan! And you wear it so well! I’m adding this to my want list.
Loving the product artistic appeal. It’s so pretty to look at.
Oh my this looks like an amazing blush. I have never tried any Mally products. By Christmas I should be off my self inflicted “no buy”.
Whoops Mally.
I fixed it! Sorry that my comment program doesn’t have an edit function
This is one makeup product to remember when Ulta has its 20% off coupon at the holiday season, Sandy!
Just a heads up…..Today at Ulta their having 50% off on Clarisonic brush heads. If you haven’t tried the Make-up Brush Head it is really a nice brush for applying your make up. I really like it. 🙋🏻❤️
Thank you, DiEtta, for this information! I am a Foreo and Michael Todd user, so I haven’t tried Clarisonic, but I do remember that you loved your Clarisonic Makeup Brush. Thank you for posting this so others will know about today’s sale items at Ulta!
The colors in this compact are just gorgeous! I need to add this to my wish list!
You definitely do! This Mally Highlighting Blush is a keeper!
Eek!!!! THAT IS STUNNING! That is such a pretty shade on you too Allison and I love that it’s also long lasting.
Thank you, Shireen! I truly adore this “palette”!
Your images with the open case and the swirled pan surrounded by its hot pink plastic frame make it appear very Emilio Pucci-esque, no? Pretty! 😀
You nailed it, Rach! Definitely Pucci-esque. Wish I had thought to stage it that way – too bad I don’t own any vintage Pucci coz I love it!
Wow, what a stunning, unique pattern! I don’t think I’ve seen that on a compact. I love how it looks blended.
It truly is, Renu! I have never seen a “palette” quite like it!
What a pretty pattern. I was hoping it didn’t have carmine though
Yes, it is not vegan. 🙁
That blush is so pretty. I’ve never tried anything by Mally but I think that I should.
I think Mally Beauty is an under appreciated brand. This compact/palette is absolutely amazing and so much fun to use
I have this and I absolutely love it!
It truly is a stunner!
This blush has been on my list since it came out but I keep forgetting to get it. Any pink blush is my forte’ and I really love the diversity of pink that’s in this one.
This is so much prettier than the promo pics! This would be a great compact palette to take traveling as you can get a lot of looks in a complex package.
Thank you so much!
This is my favorite blush palette of the year. I mostly swirl it to get the gorgeous pink while other times I aim just for the highlighter to put above the blush. It’s so beautiful. Enjoy it!!
Marcia, I was looking for the search bar on BeautyInfoZone.com to find your review to link to it, but I couldn’t find search. So I tried scrolling backwards to find your review, but I gave up after page 3. I’m sorry about that! I agree with you about favorite blush of the year (altho I have a soft spot for the cream/jelly blush from butterLONDON). It’s so darn pretty and so versatile!
I really like Mally, I feel like they don’t get a lot of love on social media as much!
I agree! Hope my tweets and IG post will help a little bit
I hadn’t heard of this brand but that compact is beautiful and I love all the colors in it!
This blush is so pretty, but then I’d have a hard time using it since I wouldn’t want to ruin the pattern. This is how I end up with two of everything! Haha!
Haha! I’ve been surprised so far that swirling it across the whole pan doesn’t seem to mess up the individual shades. How do they do that?
I’ve yet to try anything Mally but this does look nice!
This product looks great on you! I haven’t worn blush in years
This blush is the bees knees… it’s gorgeous and I’m in love with the packaging. I just love Mally products.
What a great retro description, Honey! I love Mally too, and I think this highlighting blush is one of my favorites of this year!
This is such a pretty blush! I’ve been eyeing it for a long time…
The Mally Highlightling Blush is soooo worth it!
This looks like such a work of art I wouldn’t want to use it and run the colors together. But it sounds like a nice product.
Surprisingly, Katie, the colors don’t seem to run together if I swirl my brush around all the shades! I’m so glad about that because I love looking at the palette, and I also like to use individual shades
