My Favorite Blushes

My Favorite Blushes

 I was asked to do a post of my favorite blushes and here goes nothing. It took me a little while to get everything in order and swatched but I hope it helps. And somehow I can't find my MAC Tartan Tale Collection blush sets which hold a couple of my fave blushes...thankfully I already have pictures of them. Argh! Don't hide from me my pretties!
I also threw in a couple of declared bronzers and highlight shades that I use as blushes instead. And...I couldn't stop at 10 or even 20...but hey that means more options right? : )

Oh and don't forget to share your favorites with us too....maybe some I should check out!

*********************************

Bite of An Apple - Soft coral pink (Matte) (Limited Edition - MAC Venomous Villains Collection)

I love Bite Of An Apple. It gives a great natural flush to the skin. I was nervous at first when I saw how bright it was but it doesn't apply as red as shown in the pan.
 ----------------------------------------

Coygirl - Powdered rose (Sheertone)

Coygirl is one of my faves because it's such a simple and subtle purple pink. it leans on the cool side and pairs well with cooler toned looks.

----------------------------------------

 Gingerly - Capri bronze (Sheertone)

I always saw Gingerly at my counter but never picked it up until a MUA STRONGLY recommended it for my skintone. What a great neutral color for dark skin. It adds the perfect glow without being pink.

----------------------------------------

Instant Chic - Mid-tone muted coral (Sheertone) (Limited Edition)

I'm so happy I picked this up and I'm surprised it wasn't more of a hit. it is such a great soft coral color without being too orange.

 ----------------------------------------

Melba - Soft coral-peach (Matte)

Melba is a fantastic peachy coral blush. It has just the right touch of peach and coral mixed in and it matte!

 ----------------------------------------

Peachykeen - Very baby peach (Sheertone Shimmer)

What a pretty blush. it has a great peach base with golden shimmer and looks so glowy and healthy on the skin.

----------------------------------------

Petticoat - Pale rose with gold and amber veining (Frost) (Limited Edition - MAC In The Groove Collection) (Repromote)

 This is my fave MSF of all time. It's great for all skintones and adds just the right amount of golden pink shimmer to the cheeks.

----------------------------------------

Pink Swoon - Clearly pink (Sheertone)

Pink Swoon is divine! It's a cool toned pink and sheers out for a nice glow.

 ----------------------------------------

Plum Foolery - Faintly Plum (Sheertone Shimmer)

How did I not own this before MAC A Tartan Tale Collection? It's a gorgeous golden plum color.

----------------------------------------

Ripe Peach -  Light coral (Blush Ombre - Satin) (Limited Edition - MAC Spring Forecast Collection)

This is one product that deserved the hype! it's well sought after and for good reason. It can vary from a light coral peach to a more pinky peach depending on the color concentration used and it has the softest touch of shimmer for a kick.

----------------------------------------

Sincere - Muted beige/coral (Sheertone) 

 This is a simple neutral blush for those 'natural' days. Barely shows up but adds a nice glowy effect to the skin.

----------------------------------------

Springsheen - Peach with pearl (Sheertone Shimmer)

Oh! What a great golden coral color. This blows Stereo Rose out of the water for me.

----------------------------------------

Stark Naked - Shimmery mid-tone mauve with gold pearl (Beauty Powder Blush)

This is a nice golden plum blush and one of the only plum blushes I will use.

 ----------------------------------------

Utterly Game - Warm peach with soft pearl (Mineralize Blush - Frost) (Limited Edition - MAC Fabulous Felines Collection)

This again was a great blush that many people slept on. It is still on the MAC website. It's a great subtle coral shade for just the right flush on the cheeks.
