Do you use eyeshadows as blush? I heard this is a great idea.

I use my blushes as an eyeshadow too.

some loose eyeshadows but i feel that my eyeshadows are too pigmented and shimmery! i do use blush as eyeshadow!

I used to use Texture as a blush, but now I just use it on my eyes because mine is so old (it has a screw top) lol. I need to buy a new one, but I'm too cheap. It's perfectly fine to use any eye shadow as a blush.

Neutral Pink and Rule I have used as a blush - both looked lovely.

I'm not a WOC but I have used Coppering, Sushi Flower, Passionate, and a few others as blushes. Sometimes it's easier to use it then to try and find a blush in the same colour family.

i tried sushi flower once, but i felt like i was just wasting alot of eyeshadow for no reason. it looked pretty, but i'd rather just stick to blush.

i've used cream shadows as a blush...came out quite nicely but couldn't find a cream blush match for it

I don't, but from what I understand, it's perfectly fine.

I hear you shouldn't use blush as eyeshadow, because the pigments in blush aren't fine enough for the eyes

I have used Swish and Expensive Pink as blushes and they are pretty as can be.
Also have used Canton Candy Paint as a blush and it's frickin beautiful!

i do aaaall the time. i bought beauty sleep randomly and it works nicely as a blush. so does sushi flower if you use it lightly.. most any neutral/pink shadow will work great as a blush, especially if you want a little bit of a different texture on the cheeks. also for dramatic or theater makeup different color shadows work great. and on a side note, i use satin taupe to softly sketch in sideburns for myself on some days as it perfectly matches my haircolor.

as long as its not a frost i think it would look good.

Definitely. I do that all the time. I use BeautyBurst e/s as a blush. Also Ben Nye has some great e/s that you can also use as blush...

 

[lilchocolatema]

Absolutely! I use Coppering. Brown Script is goooorgeous as a natural blush!

Lovestone Mineralize eye shadow is a gorgeous blush too.

Many of Milan Mineral's Pigments function wonderfully as blush and eyeshadows.

 

[Temptasia]

I use the pink from my NARS Divine duo as a blush.
