5 Blushes Currently on High Rotation

Just a quickie swatch post for you today of the 5 blushes I currently have on high rotation.

Left to right, they are:

  • NARS Orgasm - a classic really, a shimmery peach that I ignored for about a year and now I'm loving again. 
  • Illamasqua Naked Rose - this is quickly turning into my all time favourite blush, it's a neutral muted pink and as you can see I've already hit pan on it. 
  • Illamasqua Nymph - this is really cool toned and I don't think I can get away with wearing it in summer, but at the moment with my winter pale skin this looks great. 
  • Illamasqua Lover - oh... I just realised that 3 of the 5 blushes are from Illamasqua! As you can tell I love the brand. Lover was my first blush from the brand, it's a beautiful apricot shade that might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it is mine!
  • LA Colours Mineral Blush in Just Peachy - it's another shimmery blush, a slightly pinker version of NARS Orgasm, and only a tenth of the price!

And here are the swatches in natural light.

What do you think of these blushes? Have you tried any of them?

    1. I have heard that too, that it's a good dupe, and Sleek is so much cheaper too so if I come across it I must get it!

  3. I'm trying to hit pan on my NARS Orgasm. I quite like NARS blushes, but hate hate hate the packaging. Drives me nuts so I have to be prepared to depot them after a few years.

    1. Yeah the packaging can get annoying because how dirty it gets, but I have this bad habit that when I depot something I forget about it all together and stop using! So dirty packing for me it is!
