Top Five Friday | Blush

Happy Friday! Today I thought I’d share with you my current favourite five blush shades! I never used to wear blush, but I’m now a daily convert! I’m not one to wear different shades based on the seasons, I have my favourite shades and I rotate daily. 


Tarte Cosmetics ‘Exposed’, Laura Mercier ‘Tender Mauve’, Mary Kay ‘Shy Blush’, Nars ‘Orgasm’, Sigma ‘Heavenly’. 


Swatches bottom-top: Tarte ‘Exposed’, Laura Mercier ‘Tender Mauve’, Sigma ‘Heavenly’, Nars ‘Orgasm’, Mary Kay ‘Shy Blush’. 

Can you tell I have two types? I’m loving either a super natural nude blush, or a pinky-golden colour to the cheeks! The Sigma Heavenly is a more Coral shade, which is one of my favourites but probably the one I wear the least because it suits me best when I have a hint of colour to my skin. 

The others are similar to each other, and none of the swatches worked too well on my skin using my finger, but they’re all so gorgeous with a brush on the skin. My type of blush is one that is buildable, and none of these are crazily pigmented to the point of ‘clown cheeks’, they’re buildable to fuller pigment or really nice for a light wash of colour, which is what I do every day!

If you have any similar shades that you love, definitely let me know so I can check them out!
