NC 43/44

-Sunbasque
-Gingerly
-Eversun
-Stila Sun bronzer #2

I didn't automatically think of Notable when I thought of neutral blushes but I have been wearing it almost daily and it does seem to go with everything so...

I love the Stila Sun Bronzer in #2 too! Although it only works for a blush for me in the winter. Eversun is the best, I'm going to have to try Gingerly too.

LOL, yeah, I did. I cut off about 6-8 inches last spring to get rid of some of the weight and bulk, then I cut them off and had about 3-4 inches of loose hair in early December, and by January, I couldn't wait any longer to get rid of it ALL. I was trying to hold out to spring, but I couldn't wait.


And thank you! I hope that when you chop, you'll feel as light and free as I do now. I know we get attached to hair, and the people around me seem to be puzzled as to why I'd cut "all that hair". But it's just hair. As long as I'm healthy, and I treat it well, it'll grow back. I'm just in no rush.

My favorite has to to be raizin. For reference i'm an nc50/nw45. i also love l'oreal true match blush in spiced plum. they both give a natural/neutral glow to my face. i sometimes use raizin first tthen put spiced plum over top. it looks great.

I agree 100%. i BC'd August 13th 2009. I was transitioning for bout 3 months and just had to see my natural hair so I chopped all my mid back length hair. Everyone thought I was crazy and going through tough times, but I'm like...it's just hair...

Eversun is still my favorite neutral blush of all time. I'm now starting to love Springshine Blush Ombre! So gorgeous! Recently, I got Enough Said bpb and I adore it!

Ooh! Can I ask your colouring?
Your votes for MAC Format and Fab! make me think I should check out Eversun and Superdupernatural...

I am a happily cooltoned gal (who knows she is seriously outnumbered here

)and I wear Sleek Natural Look Foundation in Sepia which is equivalent to MAC NW43/45, Revlon Colourstay 300 Caramel, L'Oreal HiP Liquid Foundation Teak, etc...

My go to / favourite neutral blushes include:

MAC Format (best in summer for that tan on tan glow)
Barbie Loves MAC Fab! (I missed getting a back up of this and now I am gutted. Anyone know a good dupe for this colour pleeaaasssee?)
Maybelline Pure Blush Pearly Brown (similar to MAC Fab! but less red/pink)
L'Oreal HiP Cream Blush Glorious (MAC Raizin in cream form, but less red. I am wearing this in my profile picture.

)
Iman Luxury Blushing Powder Bark (Think MAC Raizin but again less red)
Black Radiance Sheer Blush Chocolate Truffle (too dark on my winter skin so now use it as a contour colour - a little goes a long, long way)
NYX Blush Stone (I love this as a matte cheek / highlight colour paired with subtle bronzer, a natural contour and maybe a delicate shimmer highlight (I swear by Revlon Skinlights Shimmer Powder in Warm Lights) for the no blush /naturally chiselled look).

Co-signing on All's Good for a great "it's me, but better" look. I paired it with Pinch Me last week and it was subtle and very nice.

Add to the list:

Nars: Lovejoy, Amour, Dolce Vita, Gilda, Zen, Gueule de Nuit

I'm C7 for reference
