Hello
I'm new to the forums & I'm dying to find which blush will
work best for me/my skin tone. I have a medium skin tone with
both warm & cool undertones [I think, hehe]. I have medium to
dark brown hair [can look black in pictures], dark eyebrows &
greenish-hazel eyes. My lips are a medium pink color.
Here's an image so you can get an idea of my coloring:
You can see my freckles in this image, but in general they aren't
very noticeable.
I'd like a really natural, fresh & peachy pink look. I usually just
wear mascara, sometimes a little eyeliner & of course, lipgloss.
I do wear blush, but not often & I'd like to change that.
A lot of Marc Jacobs fashion shows have showcased the look I'm
going for. Esp. the 04 season, but with a little less pink on the
cheeks. Kind of flushed, but not too much.
The closest MAC store is 5 hours away, so I'm planning to place
an order online, but I'm having the hardest time choosing which
blush to buy....
The powder shades I *thought* might suit me are:
Blushbaby
Peachtwist
Springsheen
Style
Tenderling
But I'm also wondering what'll be best for me, as in, sheertone, frost
matte etc...I just have no clue :/ I'm really indecisive & I want
something I'm going to be able to use long-term & with lots of looks
...not someting I can only use for night, or for spring or what have
you. & I have a hard time purchasing something without seeing how
it looks ON someone first. Is there anywhere I can view images of
people wearing these shades? I can't afford to shell out $30 for a
shade that's not going to suit me.
Also, what kind of shadow would go well with this look? Nothing too
dark, light to medium tones would be best.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I probably sound super
neurotic, but I don't purchase online often & just don't want to be
dissapointed in whatever shade I go with.
