These blushes claim to highlight skin and softly contour the cheeks for an instantly defined glow. While I do not agree with the contouring qualities these blushes seem to claim, I do think they add a really nice shine/highlight to the cheeks. You also don't need to really swirl your brush in all of the product to pick up a lot of product. You really just need to lightly tap your brush into the blushes to pick up a good amount of product and to include all the shades throughout the mosaic pattern.
Now let's look at the blushes individually!
This is the "Mauve" blush. As you can see, it includes a variety of purple, maroon and tan shades within the mosaic. This is the main blush you have to be light-handed when applying, since a lot of product comes off in a light touch to the product. However, I do think this is a very pretty blush and I don't have any other blush like it in my collection.
This blush is the shade "Nude". Because of the shades in this mosaic, this is the most "Highlight-y" of the collection. I actually (at first look) thought this would be a great drugstore dupe for Benefit's Rockateur boxed blush, however swatched next to each other, that's not entirely the case.

As you can see, the Benefit blush is a bit more pink than the Maybelline blush, however they are pretty close if you were to want a drugstore alternative to Rockateur.
Here are the Mauve and Nude blushes swatched side by side.

All in all, I think these are pretty good blushes for $8.99 a piece. I think they will last a relatively long time and with the highlighting qualities within these products, they add a really nice glow to the face. I definitely recommend checking out these blushes and maybe trying one out!
I hope this review was helpful in some way and I hope you all have a beautiful day! <3 <3 <3
