blush collection

As you can see, I only own five blushers and so my collection isn't too big nor is it full of bright adventurous colours, I tend to stick to more subtle and natural shades of pink. Even though I don't own many, blush is the first think I notice at a make up stand because I'm drawn to the pretty colours and if it was acceptable and I had more money I would probably own a lot more! I thought this post would be a good idea as I'm always interested in other peoples make up and what they think of them.

Firstly, I have the Body Shop blusher in shade coral, though I wouldn't agree it lives up to it's name it's much more of a pinky tone and it comes with it's own highlighter. I love this blush, it's not the most pigmented but it's the one I find myself reaching for the most as you can built it up to give the right amount of colour without looking too bright.

Next is my NYX blush in the shade Rose Garden, I brought this on ebay last summer as I'd watched american beauty bloggers talk about NYX products and I was keen to try them. I also like the quilted effect of the product. The colour itself is a light pink and so is perfect for spring and summer to add little colour and glow to my cheeks.

Following this is my most "embarrassing blush" it's a Miss Sporty blush in Sienna. I think I brought this when I was first getting into make up, it's not the most pigmented product but it does look natural so if I'm going for a "no blush" day this is a good option.

Finally I have my two Bourjois blushers, one is a cream blush in shade 4, sweet cherry. This is the darkest shade of the range but you can apply it lightly to give a slight flush to the cheeks and it's an easy to use product. Then there's the little round pot blush in the shade rose de jasper, this is a lovely colour, it's shimmer looks daunting in the pan but once applied it's more subtle and gives a pretty look to the cheeks. Overall I like the Bourjois blushes the most, in their compact packaging but also I love the smell! (just realised how weird that makes me sound).

What's your favourite blusher?
