Re: Describe/compare some blushes

i hav mac pinch o peach and i love it.in my opinion wid pinch o peach the more u r yellow/warm toned the more it will be peachy on u and the more u r cool toned the more pink will appear.
springsheen is peachier and similar to nars orgasm.definitely warmer than pinch o peach
hth!

Re: Describe/compare some blushes

I'm fair with yellow undertones, and Pinch O Peach is definitely more peach than pink on me. Mine is several years old though, and when I purchased it for my mom, hers was much more pink than mine. I was kind of shocked!

Springsheen has some pink in it, but on me, it appears more peachy with golden shimmer. Peachykeen is a reddish peach on me, translating to a really warm pink shade.

I don't think either are what you're looking for honestly.

Re: Describe/compare some blushes

Springsheen is definitely peachy on me and is an amazing colour! It looks totally natural on me which I love since i hate wearing blush.

Re: Describe/compare some blushes

I have both Pink Swoon and Springsheen. I have medium/olive skin and on me the Springsheen is peachy pink with the gold shimmer, but it's more pink than peach. The Pink Swoon is straight up PINK on me and I love it. Springsheen is my favorite though. I had Pinch O Peach at one time (I used it all and just never bought another one) and I really liked it too. It was more peachy on me than the others. HTH!

Blush suggestions

I have a wedding consultation to do on Friday and my blush collection isn't very big. The bride has dark hair and is about NC20/25. Her wedding colours are red and white, and she's not used to wearing makeup, so I'm going to suggest neutral/gold eye makeup, but I'm not sure what sort of blush colours I should suggest. They don't have to be MAC colours, in fact, I'd quite like to add some NARS blushes to my collection.

TIA!

Re: Blush suggestions

Im NC20 with dark hair too.. i really like MAC Peachykeen, Sunbasque & Pink Swoon.. maybe with gold/neutral eye makeup, Margin would be nice too =) you can try NARS Orgasm its a very universal color but i also lovvve LoveJoy!

Re: Blush suggestions

I would recommend Pink Swoon or Springsheen.

Re: Blush suggestions

i am nc 25 with dark brown hair, peachykeen goes well on me with any e/s combination and i usually add some pearl sunshine for a glowy look. if you 're doing a red lip you should try something subtle for blush even a beauty powder or a beauty powder blush would be good. good luck and tell us what you used.
As for Nars i have orgasm, sin and torrid but i wouldn't suggest them for red lips. Orgasm is too glittery, torrid is too vivid and sin is too dark.

Re: Blush suggestions

springsheen? i would actually say sunbasque but since she is a bride sprinsheen would give her a better flushed glow.
i wouldnt do nars orgasm.it wouldnt go wid the red IMO.

Re: Blush suggestions

Hm well I'd either go for a neutral blush like Nars Luster, or a pretty pink like Nars Desire, which is just such a feminine but pretty colour. For a peach I'd go for Nars Amour, those are all colours that would work on her complexion, you just have to see what would work well with the rest of her makeup. If you go for red-toned lips then I wouldn't use a pink blush, it clashes.

I def would not recommend any blush like Nars Orgasm or MAC Springsheen which has sparkles or glitters in it, which can look bad in photos. So a matte blush is best, which is why I def prefer Nars over MAC too.

MAC Springsheen can look bad in photos, but must not

I have made good experiences with it.

Re: How similar are these four lusterglasses? Blush Recs!

Another vote for springsheen, am very pale and love it in the summer!!

Pinkarat and wonderstruck are nothing like hey sailor and love knot, love knot is plummy whereas hey sailor is a pale pearly pink

Hope that helps.

Re: Blush Recs! Face and body foundation?

Blush: Peach; Face & Body: N2 (it's so sheer you need not worry too much about the colour being too dark).

Re: Blush Recs! Face and body foundation?

I recently got Cantaloupe.. A makeup artist picked it out...I don't think I wouldn't ever picked it mself but I think it looks really nice. I got it at a Pro store so I'm not sure if it's on macpro.com or maccosmetics.com I'm NW15 too.
