When I first started my blog I did a review for Nars Liberte. At that point I'd only ever tried one other blush, believe it or not, but over the past year or so my little collection has grown. I honestly love every blush I have, so I thought I'd share them on my blog.
Benefit Bella Bamba //
This was the first blush I ever purchased and my first ever Benefit product! The lady at the counter put it on me and I got so many compliments that day, that I went back and bought it. It's a warm pinky shade with little flecks of gold glitter. I think it looks really natural on tanned skin tones.
MAC Gingerly //
A little bit tanned for a blush and is sort of like a blush and bronzer combined.
Sleek Pumpkin Pie, Squash and Lantern //
These are the three blushes in the Sleek Pumpkin palette. Pumpkin Pie is a bright orange, Squash a bright pink and Lantern is a Scarlett sort of shade. I sometimes use these as eye shadows because they are so pigmented!
Every beauty blogger and their dog has this in their collection. It's quite similar to Bella Bamba but the pink is a bit lighter and it has more of a gold shimmer to it, rather than flecks of glitter. I do like it but I have to say it definitely isn't my favourite blush.
Rimmel Santa Rose //
This is the blush my sister always uses and it really suits her. She has a darker complexion than me yet I think it works brilliantly on both of our skin tones.
Nars Liberte //
And here she is...if you'd like to cringe at my review of this you can check it out HERE.
Sleek Life's a Peach //
My most recent blush purchase and possibly my favourite? As the name probably suggests, this is a lovely peachy shade. I used it in THIS make up look

Looks lovely! Really interested in trying sleek blushes but already have so many blushes >. < bella Bamba looks so nice on you that I'm going to look for mine now :)
ReplyDeleteIf you're gunna try Sleek blushes I'd definitely recommend Life's a Peach over the other ones - they are almost TOO pigmented lol. I wanna try Suede from them :) x
DeleteOoh peachy blushes are my weakness when it comes to blushes xD I really want to try the 3-pan blushes but am afraid of the pigmentation because I'm heavy handed sometimes...Suede looks like a nice, everyday kind of color :D
DeleteYOU KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE SEEING PEOPLE'S BLUSH COLLECTIONS :')
ReplyDeleteMy friend picked up that same Sleek palette and not gonna lie, I thought it would be terrifying to wear, but it's actually pretty wearable on you! I swear NARS blushes always looks weird when swatched on the hand, but on the face is beautiful. E.g. Liberte. Gonna have to check that one out in-store next time! AND GINGERLY.
Lol not gunna lie, I thought of u when I did this post. I'm glad u think the Sleek palette looks wearable cos I thought it looked pretty scary in these photos haha! U should definitely check out Gingerly - it's gorgeous x
