Blush help! NC30!

[tilly23]

Hi guys!

So... I recently discovered that I'm an NC30 and not an NW25 (I can't believe how silly I was to believe I was cool toned!)

Anyway!

I've purchased a tone of NARS and MAC blush's and I'm finding they aren't that great for me...

NARS I've had Dolce Vita and Mata Hari that both looked terrible on me & from MAC I have Fever, Desert Rose and Fleur power that all look terrible...

Could anyone recommend any great blush's for me? Preferably staying away from things similar to Orgasm, I like orgasm but I just don't need another blush look alike!

I was actually looking for something that will look like a beautiful pink flush and also something that will give me a 'fresh of the beach' sunkissed look!

Any help would be appreciate SO much!

I'm an NC25 and an NC30 when I'm tan, and I love love love peach blushes. They look extra lovely on skin with yellow undertones because they're warm as well. One of my favorites is Illamasqua Lover. It's a soft pinky peach and it never fails to make me look refreshed. MAC Peaches is pretty too. For that "sunkissed" look, NARS Luster is nice. Definitely check them out at Sephora/MAC before committing!

Agreed.

Peach blushes tend to be softer and work with a lot of skintones, and if you suffer from red cheeks (like me), the right color doesn't accentuate it.

NARS Luster and Madly are really nice colors that look pretty natural on the skin. I also have found that if you can find the right bright cool-toned pink color, it looks amazing on skin. I think NARS Gaiety and the new Dior blush that works with your skintone are awesome!

Good luck.

Thanks guys! I don't have access to a MAC counter or NARS where I live so I have to purchase this stuff online, a found a friend who had luster and it looked beautiful!

Thank you for your help!

Try Blushbaby! It's a beautiful color! It might not look "wow" in the pot but you can't go wrong with this blush! It's not too warm, not too cool (so you can pair it with both warmer and cooler looks) and you can build it up as much as you like. If I could only own one blush, this would be it!
Other nice colors from Mac are: Peachtwist, Mocha, Plum foolery depending on what you are looking for.

Benefit Coralista and Nars Deep throat are great for summer (almost everybody loves them!).

Chanel blushes are great too. I really like orchid rose! It fall at the same category as Blushbaby (color, undertone e.c.t.) but it's pricier!
