Stila Custom Color Blush in Adjusting Corals
Woah this is an oldie. I picked this blush up last June and appeared in a very early haul here and I cannot believe I haven't yet featured it on my blog since my september post on My Favourite Blushers look at that, two plug ins in one sentence. I have to say this blush is one of those ones that you will either love or hate. I have to say I'm someone who is a little bit careful when I bring this one out as the pigmentation is out of this world. Although, it does blend very easily and it's got quite a creamy texture. The shade to me is far from a coral shade, and really is just a bright pink with the tiniest orange undertones which I think is due to the gold speckles. Be careful though, on every single website photo this blush looks a lot more orange toned whereas it is quite a true-pink blush. I really rate this blush, especially the fact that it looks gorgeous with a tan, which is the shade I recommend you be when wearing this! Otherwise it could wash you out and just be that bit too .... pink!

This has definitely been a favourite of mine on the blog recently, I've raved about it in quite a few favourites and including My Spring/Easter Essentials blogpost. I don't know how many times I can rave on about how this is the most gorgeous peach toned blush ever. Ever. Although my blush has sadly fallen out of the pan, it's still in perfect condition. Although a bit more on the pricey side considering the size of the pan, it's totally worth it considering how well this blush blends and really does give that natural pop of colour ideal for my skin tone! This blush would look stunning on both darker and paler skin as it's still a very natural looking pink-peach shade.
One of my newest blushers in my collection is this beauty. A peach toned blush which has stunning highlighter qualities. Being a baked blush it has the best consistency out of all my blushers, it blends so incredibly well. If you're someone who loves a very natural blush, but one that still gives you a glow, look no further. I can imagine this working on so many skin tones and seriously guys, I know there aren't many times where I say the word holy grail, but holy grail. holy flipping grail. Sadly whilst I'm writing this blog post it is out of stock on the website, but seriously if you can get your hands on it once it comes back in stock, do!
Smashbox Duo in Soft Lights
This product was in my LookIncredible Beauty Subscription Box in April and although it really bugs me that this product is discontinued it's such a stunning blush I just had to share it, and I believe there may still be some of them available on Amazon, so if you're looking for that perfect 'travel duo' blush and highlight, this is it. This is that perfectly pink blush. It's such a pale pink shade which is completely matte, something that I'm so easily drawn to as an 'everyday shade' as I know not everyone is a fan of sheen/glittery blushers. Once again, another blush that blends so well and is second in my "creamiest of blushers" in my collection! Love love love!

Another new addition to my collection is this gorgeous Face Powder. Originally when I had bought this product I didn't really know how I would go about using it. Is it a powder for all over the face? A highlighter? A blush? In all honesty, it's become a multi-purpose product. I love to gently dust this all of my face if I'm looking a little pale and want some more colour, but I also love using this as a blush. This is one of those very subtle blushes, the lighest pigmentation out of all of them. This steers very much to the "baby pink" side of things, truly being a girly blush. Milani is slowly becoming a favourite of mine when it comes to their products quality and now that it's available in the UK I really recommend my fellow UK bloggers (and American) go check them out!

These look so lovely! I also have Luminoso and I use it a LOT! I also have other shades, dolce pink and some from their rose blusher range. I really like the look of beauty's touch, I may have to get it. Thank you sharing your beautiful collection. Xx

I couldn't agree more, I reckon Luminoso is one of my most used blushes already! Thank you for reading! xx
DeleteAhh these are all so pretty and pink, my favourite shade of blush. The Smashbox duo is gorgeous, love that there is a mixture of a lighter and a darker shade.

Thank you! Oh definitely do pick one up if you can, I cannot fault their formula at all! xx
DeleteI absolutely love blush too. Loved your picks :) I've heard that they discontinued Milani's Luminoso. I hope not but I'm currently travelling in the States and can't find it! It's a shame because it's one of those blushes that so many people rave about x
ReplyDeleteJess | It's That Time For ... My raw chocolate coconut energy bites!
Thank you Jess! No way have they discontinued it! I will actually be gutted if they ever do and can't believe it's still out of stock on the website, making me nervous now! xx
DeleteLove these blushers!! Looks so pretty!!
ReplyDeleteXoxo,
Love from www.trangscorner.com {a lifestyle, fashion, beauty, and food blog}
Thank you! xx
DeleteI've heard so much good things about Luminoso! I think I would love the Smashbox blush. They recently came out with a "contour" palette with 3 shades, but I quote-on-quote "contour" because they all look like blush shades. I really want one of them though!
