Mememe Boxed Blush in Rouge

I bet Benefits lawyers are scratching their heads at this one. Mememe, a super cheap brand found at Superdrug in the UK, have a history of ‘borrowing’ ideas from Benefit. These boxed blushes are more than a little reminiscent of the Benefit blushes. You get the same cardboard packaging, the same soft but too thin to be useful flat brush. Am I complaining? No. If the product is any good then I’m a lot happier paying £7.99 for the drugstore version than £23.50.



Rouge is a rather apt name for the shade. It’s a dirty reddish peach with fine gold shimmer and frankly rather gorgeous. It’s pigmented, not scarily so but pigmented enough. It blends nicely too (when you use a normal brush) and I haven’t noticed any fading throughout the day.


The packaging seems good quality. Yes ok not quite as good as Benefits but more than satisfactory for the price tag. There are 4 shades available and I think next spring Coral might be coming home with me... x

  1. When I saw these the range of colours disapointed me quite a lot!
    Having said that, you've sold this one to me!

  2. I love that Mememe have copied, who can afford to fork out over £20 for a blusher or bronzer?! xxxxxxxxxxxx

  3. That is pretty, and looks less shimmery/gittery than the Benefit blushes (which is a good thing in my book).

  4. Coral is a lovely colour too! Especially on pale skin. Bronze isn't a shade for me so I skipped on that but Rouge is going into my Oct. faves!
