My BLUSH Favs for Spring/Summer

Posted by csdferwEHRTJR Kamis, 24 Mei 2012 0 komentar

Blush can really pull your whole look together and make you look more "alive". The other night, my family was over at my house and I was showing my Mom and Grandma the Paris Palette. While explaining the colors to my Grandma and giving her some ideas for how she could use the colors and make them work for her, I immediately whipped out the F40 brush in her palette and applied a bit of the Peche shade to her cheeks and showed her how to use the highlight shade, Lumiere, with it and her face lit up. It was amazing what a difference the blush made.

So while I've always L*O*V*E*D blush and been a bit obsessed with it (I have a shamefully large collection to prove it), that experience with my Grandma sparked the idea to do a "Favorite Blush" video. Funny enough, when I went to check out the shades I would include in the video, they were kind of all sitting on my vanity already. What they all had in common? All were shades perfectly suited for Spring and Summer.

Here are my favs mentioned in the video. Don't forget to check out my video for more info on the products as well as some demos on how to apply them.

NARS Orgasm

Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush: Exposed, Dollface, Blissful

MAC Powder Blush: Peony Petal, Love Cloud, Modern Mandarin

Smashbox Blush in Radiance

Paris Palette by Sigma Beauty: Peche, Lumiere

Benefit Boxed Powders: Hervana, Dandelion

What are YOUR favorite blush shades for Spring & Summer??

xoxo,

Tiffany

Check out the video for more!

MAC Blush Palettes

Hey guys! Here is a little peek into my MAC blush palettes and how I organize them. Keep in mind these are just my powder blushes (and just MAC). I don't depot the cream blush or mineral blush or even some of the limited edition ones in cute packaging. I actually depot most of the l.e. ones because the little pots are annoying... I think I only have a couple that are not depotted (HK and Manish Arora)--trust me, it's been hard. I've wanted to depot them so bad! haha
**Also, I removed the inserts in the palettes, which basically serve as little "guides" to place your refill pans in. You don't need them since the entire bottom of the palette is a solid piece of metal, so the whole thing is magnetic. The insert just keeps them straight and separated. To me, removing the insert is worth the extra 2 spaces it provides. Normally, blush palettes hold only 6. With the inserts removed, they hold 8 nicely. Removing the inserts is easy. Just wedge something around the edges and it will pop right out.

(top-bottom, left-right)
Cute (dc'd), Well Dressed, Pinch O' Peach, Blushbaby
Pink Swoon, Dollymix, Peachykeen, X-Rocks (le)

Spaced Out (le), Cantaloupe (pro), Sunbasque, Prism
*Lightsweep (pro, shape powder), Harmony, Sincere, Gingerly
*only shape powder I own in a refill--I have all the shades in le duos--Lightsweep makes for an AWESOME color to use to blend out blush if you've overdone it or to highlight tan/olive skin tones, so I like to keep it handy :)

...and for my favorite. My Beauty Powder Blushes I've depotted. Please note, these ARE NOT the same as a Beauty Powder (see the FAQ section of my blog). They are FABULOUS and I love them. I want to eventually have all the shades. They are le items. I also have the HK Tippy bpb as well, but couldn't bring myself to depot it :) The formulas and the finish of these are just amazing.

(all shades are le)
Enough Said, Shy Beauty, Eversun, Serenely
Secret Blush, Stark Naked, Feeling, On a Mission

So I think I'm set with MAC blush...haha. Next on my list is to hopefully round out my bpb collection with the shades I don't have and I'm also working on a palette with other pro blush colors because they have awesome brights. I'll post that when it's all done and I'm happy with it ;)

Hope this was helpful! I've also done something similar with my MAC eye shadow palettes. Click here for that post. **Keep in mind, that was a few months ago and they've changed DRAMATICALLY since then. New post to come soon on that :)
