Dior is releasing more (inclusive) shades within the Backstage Rosy Glow Blush line, and a review of the formula is in order. I recently bought the shade Coral (obviously, I love coral), so that’s the one I’ll be reviewing.
Review, Swatches | Chanel Eyeshadow and Blush Palette in 957 Tendresse
Chanel always seems to get to me with their Spring/Summer makeup collections – particularly with the blushes. This year they released blush palettes, which is a first for them as far as I know, and that made me want it even more. There are two variations and I chose the one geared towards lighter skintones, Tendresse.
Review, Swatches | Flower Knows Strawberry Rococo Blush in 02 Pure Rhyme
Is that the most beautiful pan embossing ever, or is that the most beautiful pan embossing ever? This is such eye candy that makes you wonder if Flower Knows thrives by just resting on pretty.
Review, Swatches | Flower Knows Flower Goddess Blush in Henbane
Could it be that I found another lavender blush? These seem to be rare yet popular, judging by the views on my purple/lavender blush list post, and as soon as I saw Henbane from Flower Knows I knew I had to check if it belonged there.
Review, Swatches | Tarte Precious Gems Amazonian Clay Cheek Palette
Is this the forth post in a row where I’m reviewing blush? Yes it is. And more will be coming. Addictions aside, my review of Tarte’s 2021 holiday blush set has been one of my most viewed posts, which tells me people are still very much interested in this formula. The Precious Gems cheek palette is last holiday’s palette and it is still available and currently on sale, so a review feels very apropos.
Review, Swatches | Estée Lauder Captivating Glow Gift Set
This gift set came out over the holidays and it was a completely blind purchase on my part. I had seen no reviews on it, even though the primer and lipstick are part of Estée Lauder’s permanent line – I just got it to be eligible for their blockbuster kit. This is still available and for sale on a few retailers, and let me tell you… run, don’t walk.
Review, Swatches | Illamasqua x Amy Double Trouble Face Duo
Don’t you love sale season? I’ve been keeping my eye on the Illamasqua x Amy Winehouse collection because there were a few items that interested me, this duo being one of them. These are two new shades and I’ve always had a great experience with Illamasqua blushes, so when this got to be 60% off I had to get it.
Review, Swatches | Sephora Colorful Terrazzo Blush in Love in the Tropics Nº44 and South Farniente Nº47
About a year ago I reviewed the Sephora Colorful Terrazzo blush in the shade Chill in the Air (nº45) and I ended alluding to the fact that I might just get more of these if a sale popped up. Prophecy fulfilled.
Review, Swatches | Flormar Baked Blush-On in 44 Pink Bronze and 045 Touch of Rose
I don’t know if it is because when I started to get into makeup MAC’s Mineralized Skinfinishes were all the rage, but I have a soft spot for a baked cheek product with a marble looking pan. So I had to try Flormar’s version. Even though these two shades are very similar. Hey, at least I can write a review about them (this is becoming a dangerously enabling excuse).
Review, Swatches | KIKO Blossoming Beauty Romantic Shades of Face & Eyes Palette
KIKO sure knows how to come out with a pretty collection. The Blossoming Beauty collection has some gorgeous pan designs and I had to have something from this limited edition line. Since I haven’t had the chance to try a KIKO face palette yet, this was the time.
