Top 5 Tuesday - peach blushes

I go through phases with blushes, some days I love my pinks, some days I prefer something warmer. Now that the weather is warming up here in Australia peach blushes will be in high rotation again, especially since I now wear them instead of eyeshadow (see this post).

Please note - coral, apricot and orange are all included under the banner of "peach".

Here are my 5 favourites.

MAC blush in Melba: This is a matte colour which is more of a muted dusty pink with a hint of peach. It's neutral enough to suit all complexions and it doesn't overpower eye makeup, no matter how smokey you make it.

Illamasqua blush in Lover: This is possibly my most favourite blush ever. Like all Illamasqua products this is highly pigmented, and light hand is needed for fairer skinned girls out there. For those with darker skin you can get away with a heavier swatch. It's more of a warm apricot colour, and if I could only use one blush for the rest of my life I would choose this.

Tarte Amazonian Clay blush in Tipsy: Another absolute favourite, it's a warmer, more reddish peach than Illamasqua Lover. The gorgeous matte shade seriously lasts a long time and looks fantastic with a tan. 

Sleek blush in Pan Tao: This looks scary in the pan, a bright orange, however with a light touch this adds a gorgeous warm glow to the cheeks. It's definitely a summer shade, as when I tried wearing it on my pale winter skin it looked too garish.

BYS shimmer blush in Coral: Another summer shade. It's one of my favourite budget buys, it cost less than $5AUD, and it lasts and lasts. The colour is a more pigmented version of the famous NARS Orgasm, and here is a post where I compared the two in the past.
