^^ Yeah, if bruised plum was bit more purple I'd be all over that, too!
But the softness of bruised plums makes it great for everyday wear imho. Whereas for me, if it was more purple it would less easier to wear.
That is a great way to curb it! I was never a blush person before b/o. However I don't have a huge blush collection, but that being said I never fell in love blushes before. I'm a makeup newbie, that's might be why I love them so much.
If you have blushes you love already, I'd say skip.
It's just that I never had any blushes I loved before. Before b/o I used to just put on blush for the sake of putting it on. b/o are the first blushes I fell in love with and happy to wear blush without any eyeshadow makeup, and use blush as the focus of my makeup.
As I said before I have a smallish blush collection. Like I own like 5 Nars blushes; orgasm, mata hari, torrid, crazed, and gilda. 2 mac powder blushes; breezy and dollymix and 4 creme blushes; JDV, OO, SSSE (from lillyland collection) and quartz. I have some dior, estee lauder blushes that was GWP that i never use, too.
