MY THREE GO-TO BLUSHES

Hello everyone! Today i am back with another instalment of my current "three go-to products", which i have already discussed my three go-to travel friendly highlight palettes and my three go-to nude lip liners as part of this mini series. With that in mind putting palettes/pan blushes aside which i often reach for when it comes down to it, i do also have a select few individual blushes that are go-to favourites of mine. I never used to be the biggest blush fan which i have mentioned on several occasions, but now i love the way it can just add further dimension as well as bringing colour back to the face/complexion.

nars cosmetics blush in the shade orgasm

First up we have probably one of the most well known/well loved blushes in the beauty community, yes you guessed it nars orgasm blush. This particular blush is a gorgeous slightly peachy pink shade with gold shimmer, which also comes in the multiple form for those cream blush lovers. If you were wanting to invest in a high end blush, i would definitely opt for one of these, as a little product goes a long way so it will last you for a while. If you are still not keen on spending £23 for the blush, sleek do an amazing dupe which is also a favourite of mine and that is in the shade rose gold for just under £5.

milani baked blush in the shade luminoso

Another blush that is very well known and one that has a been a firm favourite of mine for years, in fact i don't think i could ever get bored of reaching for it. This particular shade is a beautiful baked peachy blush with a slight pink undertone, as it is a baked blush it does has a pearlescent finish to it. The formula of these blushes are one of my favourites, as they are pigmented, blend easily/seamlessly and are long lasting on the face. I know these blushes are a little more expensive when bought on beautybay coming in at £10 if you are from the uk, when you can get them in the u.s for around $8 or so.

mac cosmetics sheertone blush in the shade peaches

Finally we have this particular blush shade from mac, which is the only matte finish blush out of the bunch. When it came down to choosing a third blush, it was a toss up between this shade (peaches) and the shade crisp whites but that shade was a limited edition item therefore it wouldn't be a shop-able item. That being said both blushes are very similar, peaches is a true peach shade with a natural finish to it and the shade crisp whites is slightly lighter in tone peach with a slight golden shimmer to it. Just like i mentioned with the nars orgasm blush, the mac blushes are also a great investment for a higher end product, as a little goes a long way because of the pigmentation. These blushes come in a wide range of different shades and retail for £19.50.
