Welcome to my very first blog!
In this post I will be reviewing and swatching my Summer Blush Must-Haves!
My favorite summer blushes range from drugstore to high end, but I love all of them the same. These 5 products have made it to the top of the list!
1. ELF Blush in Pink Passion
($3.00 from www.eyeslipsface.com or select Walmart and Target)
This is the ultimate girly-girl Barbie pink color. It is a matte pink powder blush, and perfect to give your cheeks a pop of color!
2. ELF Studio Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder in St. Lucia
($3.00 from www.eyeslipsface.com or select Walmart and Target)
This blush is a pale pink, with LOTS of gold sparkle, although the sparkle doesn't come off on the skin as strong as it does in the duo palette. This is perfect for a hint of color. I recommend using a setting spray to make it last longer on your cheeks. The other color is a sparkly bronzer, but I prefer matte ones, so I typically don't use it.
3. Fox in a Box in Spicy and Sweet
($6.00 from Walmart)
In my opinion, mixing blush colors makes it look so much more natural on skin than a solid color by itself. That being said, Fox in a Box is perfect for that! There are four different colors, ranging from light to dark. I swirl my brush through all of them and the color comes off very natural. There is also a gold sheen in this blush, which I love!
4. L'oreal Visible Lift in Coral
($11-$12 from Drugstores)
This is one of the most unique blushes I have ever come upon. It is similar to the Maybelline Bouncy blushes, just not as solid. The texture of this is almost mousse-like, but I recommend using your fingers to apply it because a brush just doesn't apply hard enough to get the product on it. Also, this coral blush is the ULTIMATE in gold sparkle! It's perfect for a summer night :)
5. Benefit Dallas
($28.00 from Ulta)
This blush is one of the only high-end ones I have, and it is amazing! As you can see, it is much darker than most blushes, almost on the verge of becoming a bronzer, but this is why I love it. It adds a look to your cheeks as if you have been out in the sun all day, with a subtle sheen. I even add a small amount to my temples and forehead hair line, where the sun would naturally hit.
