I am on a spending ban. I am literally so close to running
out of cash that I’m down to buying food to live on and that’s it. So, there
won’t be any new reviews for a while but I was looking through my collection
deciding what I could post about and the blushes I have stood out to me. I don’t have the best or biggest collection of blushes
because they aren’t my favourite part of makeup, but the ones I have I do
really like and I thought I would share my opinions on my favourites with you.
ELF Blush and Bronzing duo link, ELF Blush link, Topshop Cream Blush link, NYX Rouge Cream Blush link and Natural Collection blush link.
This is a pretty popular duo I believe, and I can see why.
It’s a great way to get a bronzer and blush that complement each other really
well and for such a cheap price. I’ve also heard that this is a dupe for NarsOrgasm and Laguna, which is great considering it’s £26.25 cheaper than the Nars
compact. It’s got shimmer in it, which can be noticed if you are to heavy
handed but overall it’s a nice natural looking duo that can work for even pale
girls.
I know that ELF can be a bit hit and miss, so this might not
be the greatest thing for everyone but I adore this blush. It’s a nice bright
pink colour that isn’t to pigmented. That would normally be a bad thing but
because of the brightness of the colour the lower than average pigmentation
makes it easy to use. It gives a nice flush to the cheeks and it’s a nice matte
colour so you don’t get chunks of glitter on your face.
These blushes are only £1.99, and they are amazing. They are
better quality than most more expensive blushes that I’ve tried. They are
nicely pigmented, super blendable and they last a decent amount of time. The
shade pink cloud is one of my favourites, and one of the brightest in the range
and the other colours are more natural. It’s one of the only brands in the
drugstore that I’ve found that do really neutral/nude coloured.
I’ve raved about this until I’m blue in the face so I won’t
say too much. These are fantastic, and I think I own every colour that they had
in the Oxford Street store. They blend nicely, they have amazing pigmentation
and they packaging is lovely. The finish on these is nice to because it goes on
like a cream but sets and lasts like a powder.
Just all around fabulous, in my opinion.
This blush is gorgeous, and a really nice neutral colour
with golden shimmer. It’s a little too creamy, but the colour is lovely so I
work with it. It works nicely when you use a brush or your fingers. It’s a
little hard to get a hold of in the UK but I’ll link it above. I know these are
easier to get in the US. If you’re from the UK, and putting a NYX order in
online would highly recommend this.
