Beautiful Blushers




I decided my next blog was going to be on blushes, I love a pink blush and I have 4 main blushes I use. I think that the swirl of some pink blusher on the apples of your cheeks finishes up any makeup look!
  • Nars in 'Orgasm'
  • NYX in 'Beach'
  • Mac in 'formal'
  • Benefit in 'Sugarbomb'

Nars in 'Orgasm' priced at £22.50
Nars is such an amazing brand which I have not long had in my makeup collection, the Nars blushes have a silky texture and are extremely buildable, this shade 'Orgasm' is a beautiful pinky peach tone with gold shimmer with in it, (the photo really doesn't do it any justice)
It is very pigmented and looks amazing on the apples of your cheeks, it is fairly bright so I wouldn't tend to wear this for day wear, more of an evening shade. I love the compact it comes in, with a little mirror on the inside - perfect for putting in your handbag for any touches on a night out.
On the NARS website it is described as a 'cult classic' and I completely agree, it is a must have blusher, and the colour is truly beautiful, as you can see I am running low so will be re-purchasing!


NYX in 'Peach' at £6.00

NYX is an amazing drugstore brand, such good quality for a fabulous price! The packaging may be a little flimsy but for £6.00 you can't go wrong, I'd advise anyone on a budget to head over to there website and take a look! NYXCosmetics.co.uk.
This shade looks very bright in the photo, but believe me it is such a natural pink shade that it can be easily worn day to day, you only need a small amount but it goes a long way! Ive had mine for around 4 months and its still going strong. The colour is very matte and has no shimmer which I love!


MAC blush in 'formal' at £18.00
 
This particular blusher came in a set I had as a gift on my Birthday. I love the blush, it is a light pink shade and is lovely for day, it is so delicate. I am keen to add more MAC blushers to my collection, the small pot they come in feels very sturdy and not at all filmsy (compared to the NYX one).
I like that it is a pale subtle colour for days when I wear a lighter more natural make up this is perfect! The colour is matte also like the NYX one! And again has lasted me brilliantly!



Benefit in 'Sugarbomb' at £23.50


I love this blush as it is a mix of 4 shades, simply swirl the brush to get a mix of the complimentary shades -  this is a lovely peach colour with a slight glittery sheen throughout, something I would wear on a night out. Another bonus is the packaging (Of course all benefit blushers come with the brush inside, which may not be the best - but it quite handy) perfect to apply more product whilst your out and about.
I like the packaging and Benefit as a brand has the cutest products! Benefit will always be a favourite of mine and I will usually have one of their products on my list at Christmas time!

Hope you enjoyed reading about my top blushers <3

Love,

  8. Have really been thinking about purchasing Nars Orgasm but wondering if it was an evening shade - you answered my question! ;) Xo, Alison

    1. Yes, I would say it is an evening blush, a tad too heavy for day, just due to the shimmer finish. xx
