Blush questions & recommendations

Re: Blush? (pale noob)

i'd suggest mac's peachykeen. its a sheertone shimmer formula, so it goes on sheer but can be built up if you want more color. its a pinky-peach color, so it can pull more pink or peach, depending on other colors you're wearing. you could also try springsheen (an exact dupe to nars orgasm, but without the nars pricetag). its also a sheertone shimmer, that's a peachy-coral shade.

Re: Blush? (pale noob)

sparkle or sheen?

i love sheertone shimmer blushes, give a bit of glowyness on the cheeks.

what kind of colour? I like a slightly peachy one so I go for Springsheen (I'm pale at NW15)


edit: damn, i see erine just beat me to it! LOL but great minds think alike!

erine's got it!! Well-Dressed is also a gorgeous pale pink with a bit of shimmer to it. And if you're daring, Dollymix is a gorgeous bright pink, but it's the Sheer Shimmertone formula and if you apply it with a light hand, it would be gorgeous!

Re: Blush? (pale noob)

I think one of the best investments for you would be a skunk brush like the 188 or 187 if you don't have something similar already. I'm very pale myself and before I got a skunk brush I could never get blush to work for me. It makes it so much easier to control the intensity of the blush.

I've tried a few skunk brushes(including the 188 & 187) and my favorite has been the Bare Escentuals featherlight brush. This one is the perfect size & density for me and you can get it pretty cheap on ebay.

Well Dressed would be awesome for you., but it's more satiny than sparkly.

If you can find it, Angel would be perfect. It's discontinued, but it is the palest clear pink shade. My BFF is pale as white paper and this is the only blush she wears.

NARS Angelika is the perfect pale cool candy pink, with sparkles.

sweet william blushcreme with the 188 or 187 brush. It's a medium pink, but the color is buildable. Don't be scared of the creme blushes, they are actually really easy to work with and blend out great. With the brushes i suggested you should get an even more natural look, but still noticeable sparkle/sheen. You might also like blossoming blushcreme.. they are both pearl finishes.

For a more shimmery blush, I love the Sheertone Shimmers. Dollymix is my favorite, followed by Trace Gold and Springsheen. I'm fair also, but these all look great on me.

go for a sheertone shimmer. Dollymix is my fav.

Blushes / Pink Lip Colors
