What's your favourite blusher ?

Blusher is one thing I've not used in years
I've just really used a small amount of bronzer
St tropez as blusher
And only lightly on the apple of the cheek

But I'm just trying to revamp things a bit
As I've realised I've been stuck in a rut make up wise and being doingit the same for years

(Brown hair, green eyes, sallow skin)

Benefit Posie Tint in the summer and Bourjois Rose d'or in the winter.

I only get the tiny Posie Tints as I find the metallic paint flakes off when it gets bashed around in my makeup bag.

Brown skin. Mac

MitzyLeFrouf · 28/04/2017 13:31

Blonde and pale skin.

Nars Deep Throat. A very natural peachy pink.

BumbleNova · 28/04/2017 13:32

laura mercier one. really natural colour on my very fair skin.

garmsfresh · 28/04/2017 13:44

I love the Tom Ford blush in inhibition worth the money .

FluffyBathTowel · 28/04/2017 13:46

Blond with pale skin. Bobbi Brown Pale Pink. Though it doesn't look that pale in the pot it goes on nice & subtle.

yumscrumfatbum · 28/04/2017 13:53

I have the Urban Decay flushed palette. Has a brown, pink and a highlighter. I am fair skinned

FluffyBathTowel · 28/04/2017 13:54

And no glitter either. Hate glittery blushers. I'm looking at you Nars Orgasm sitting in my make-up drawer never being used.

Sammysquiz · 28/04/2017 14:05

The Rosie Huntingdon-Whitely cream blushers from her range at M&S are great. I have the bright pink one and it's lovely.

NomDePlumeReloaded · 28/04/2017 14:18

I love blusher. I have loads. My faves are naturalish tawny shades. My current top 5, because 1 is too hard.

In no particular order

NARS Douceur (powder) - discontinued but fab

MAC Blushbaby (powder)

M&S Rosie/Autograph Creme blush in Camisole Blush (possibly Flush?!) (cream)

Tarte Amazonian Clay in Exposed (powder).

Max Factor Creme Puff in Nude Mauve (powder) - sort of glowy without glitter. Gorgeous and a bargain. Like a cheap Hourglass blusher but the finish is just as beautiful.

NomDePlumeReloaded · 28/04/2017 14:19

The NARS, MAC, M&S & Tarte are all matte. Forgot to mention that.

EmmaC78 · 28/04/2017 14:23

I use the Bobbi Brown pink shimmer brick.

Cakescakescakes · 28/04/2017 15:34

Laura mercier Rose Bloom. Beautiful natural shade.

Botanicbaby · 28/04/2017 16:26

Sleek rose gold powder blush looks great on fair skin.

Also boots natural collection cream blush in natural glow. Really gives fresh glowing complexion.

thethoughtfox · 28/04/2017 19:07

Nars Orgasm: scary in the palette but the lightest whisper of it does something amazing to my v pale face. It also looks amazing generously applied to my v tanned sister.

Ktown · 28/04/2017 19:10

Stila petunia or lilam
Poise tint
Bourjois 12 hour gel blush
All are great and I switch depending on mood.
Less is more though.

JennyHolzersGhost · 28/04/2017 19:13

I had a thread on this a while back. Now happily rocking Nars Multiple Matte in Exumas (a coral-pink - subtler than it looks). I too dislike sparkly blushers. I like a cream texture because it gives a more dewy finish.

Girlywurly · 28/04/2017 21:22

Nars Deepthroat.

Freezingwinter · 28/04/2017 21:25

Very pale, dark brown hair and blue eyes

Lady like baked blusher by Nyx

SuperBeagle · 28/04/2017 21:29

Pale, naturally blonde (often dyed brown), green eyes.

NARS Orgasm. It was a cult classic years ago but I think its reputation is deserved.

The Hourglass blushes (in general) are great too.

Tanfastic · 28/04/2017 21:37

I saw a similar thread on this recently and a few recommended Daniel Sandler watercolour blush. I ordered one last week and I love it, goes on lovely and a much nicer finish I find than a powder blush.

CointreauVersial · 28/04/2017 21:59

MUA Cupcake.

Lovely neutral, non-sparkly, powder blusher, and cheap as chips from Superdrug.

Sciurus83 · 28/04/2017 22:07

Clinique peach pop

WhooooAmI24601 · 29/04/2017 10:16

In winter I use Nars Orgasm (it's a cliche but it's just the perfect shade for my skin). In summer I use Chanel's Tan de Soleil across my cheekbones instead of blusher.
