TOO FACED SWEETHEARTS PERFECT FLUSH BLUSH CANDY GLOW BLUSH REVIEW






Calling all sweethearts!
Too faced is a brand known for their girly,pink,delightful packaging..and this new product is no exception.
This beauty has launched just in time for Valentine's day.
It's the new Candy Glow heart blush.
When I saw it,I knew instantly it was love at first sight.
I have a true blush addiction.
It has 3 delectable shades of pink,peach,and coral..almost reminding me of Benefit's Sugarbomb sans the plum.
This gives a soft,gorgeous glow..the perfect flush,as the name implies.
I have a feeling this will be my everyday goto blush for quite awhile.

You can get this amazing blush at Too Faced.

What do you think,is it a hit or miss for you?

I'd love to know!

BEAUTY CRAVE:MAYBELLINE DREAMY BOUNCY BLUSH


Today I was at my local CVS store picking up some prescriptions (boo for sick season)
and I randomly came across these cute little gems!
I was wondering why the old dream mousse blushes were on sale so cheap,and being discontinued..apparently there was some packaging issue..
These are way nicer anyway!
The only thing I hate about buying drugstore makeup is that it's a gamble..
There's never any testers to swatch which I could never understand..
I'm sure they'd have alot more sales,and less returns.
The texture is supposed to be a hybrid of a cream and a powder.
I will definitely be picking up a few of these soon!
I seem to be on some sort of blush buying obsession lately..
I don't know why :/

What's your favorite current beauty obsession?

CHANEL BLUSH HORIZON DE CHANEL REVIEW!


Chanel Blush De Horizon
$58.00 USD

The luminous hues of sunset are now captured in one elegant highlighting face powder. Subtle gradations of rose, coral and peach can be applied on their own or blended together to highlight and sculpt the face or achieve an overall warmth and radiance.

This powder instantly captured my attention by the gradation of the warm tones.
The price tag is a bit steep,but Chanel ensures quality products.
The compact comes encased in a velvet pouch,as well as the blush brush.
The nice thing is you can use these colours blended,or individually.
When swatched on the skin with the colors mixed,it gives a warm pinky-peach luminous sheen,buildable to an actual blush,especially on fair complexions.
It will work more as a highlighter against darker complexions.
The compact reminds me of Bobbi Brown's shimmerbricks,without the noticeable shimmer.
I am glad to add this to my collection,as nothing I have now compares to the beauty of this.

You can purchase this at Nordstrom.

Have you seen this blush? What did you think about it?

BEAUTY CRAVE: NARS DANMARI ALL ABOUT CHEEKS PALETTE!


NARS DANMARI PALETTE,$65

Based on the exquisite tradition of Kabuki theatre, a classical Japanese dance drama, this palette features six high-pigment cheek powders that let you play up your features like a true performance artist - or a gal who loves variety and just wants to look good.

The ultimate authority in blush, this limited-edition, mirrored holiday NARS compact features essential blush and bronzer shades, ranging from warm bronze and luminous highlighting hues to shockingly bright pink. This fashion-forward mix was created exclusively for Sephora.

The colors included are:

Hungry Heart (golden ivory)
                        Orgasm (peachy pink with golden shimmer)
Desire (cotton candy pink)
Sin (berry with gold shimmer)
Super Orgasm (peachy pink with gold glitter)
Casino (dark brown with golden shimmer)

I want to get this palette..it's so gorgeous!
Realistically,I need another blush like I need a hole inside my head.
I probably have over 100+ blushes..insane I know!
The makeup fiend inside of me is telling me this is essential to my kit.
For the price..you simply can't beat it!
Nars blushes are $27 a pop..not quite cheap,so that makes this palette a great value.
The only color I personally wouldn't use,would be Casino..it would be way too harsh on my porcelain skin..but would come in handy for makeup gigs.
Only time will tell if I purchase this..when and if I do,I will review!

Check out the palette here.

JILL STUART BLUSH MIX COMPACT




Jill Stuart Mix Blush is not for the faint of heart!
If you love blushers,and gorgeous packaging,this brand will be sure to capture your attention.
The quad blushers come in princess-like compacts which make them ultra alluring.
It contains 4 colors,and has a nice quality (removable) attached brush.

Jill Stuart is a high end cosmetic brand in Japan.
Though there isn't a counter for this brand,I have heard that there is a Jill Stuart Flagship store in soho,NYC.
The mix blush compacts remain her #1 selling item,but she does have an array of great cosmetic products.
The average price is around $50 usd.You can find them in various online shops,although some sites will be marked up quite a bit.

The quality of the blush is supposed to be smooth.Its not super pigmented,but it is buildable to give you a soft,diffused glow of color.

I'm getting 3 colors: Platinum Illuminance (LE),Gold Illuminance(LE),and Lovely Tulip.

I simply can't wait to add these beautiful gems to my collection!
I will post pics once I receieve them.
