Dusty Rose Blush?

[theleopardcake]

Hey everyone! I had too many peachy blushes so i wanted to get something that would be much softer- something like a dusty rose.

I didn't have to much time to stand around and ask for help and plus the lighting at the store (counter- Nordstrom) was very yellowish so it distorted the color. I quickly swatched coygirl and breath o' plum on my wrists and decided that the latter would do well.

I came home and tried it on the next morning, but it seemed much pinker/redder than I wanted it to be.

I'm close to an NC 30 so if anyone can help with a dusty rose blush (preferably from MAC) i'd really appreciate it. thanks!

I am also looking for something with very little shimmer (i have margin and it is way too glittery/shimmery). Sheertone shimmers will do as well

How about Desert Rose?

Hmm...

How about stray rose?

It's a light rose color...more natural but pretty nice. I find desert rose to be too dark. It makes me look like I'm really sick :X

Yea, i was thinking stray rose too, but it's limited edition and i don't order stuff online =/ i don't think of any of the stores in my area carry it either, but thanks for the suggestion!

Dollymix is too pink for me.

ahhh i'd love to trade! except i have no idea how to mail stuff and i don't have a paypal account =(

also, the only thing i'd probably be able to trade is the breath o plum blush i have since all of my other blushes are depotted (as well as my eyeshadows)

 

[freaksinunif0rm]

I don't have paypal either...

Usually I wrap the stuff in tissue paper and stick it in an envelope and put a few stamps on it and send it XD.

I'll be glad to trade for breath o plum though (i'm on the search for plums!!!)

So....message me if you're interested :].
