Hi Beauties! 
I have been following on Alice's blog for sometime and enjoy reading her posts. I love skincare Mondays and her makeup looks :) I'm so happy to do a guest post in her blog and today I'm sharing my top 5 blushes for summer. As you can see in the picture above I prefer peachy toned blushes for summer.  I find they give a gorgeous glow to the cheek and look fab with tan. Not that I ever get tanned, but girl can dream ;)

First blush I'm going to share with you guys is from brand called Guerlain and its not only a blush. I use it as blush, but you get there a 2 different blushes and a bronzer. It's called Terracotta Sun Celebration face powder (16 g).


The packaging of it is gorgeous and it smells so good! It gives the most amazing glow to the cheeks. Its pigmented, but not that much that I have to be extra careful when I'm applying it. For me its a perfect product for summer, but its pricey. If you are on a budget when it comes to makeup then you might wanna check out my next favorite, which is Maybelline Terre Indienne bronzing powder + blush in shade 09 Golden Tropics (16 g). It comes with a bronzer and blusher together and I use it as a blush.


It doesn't smell as good as the Guerlain bronzer/blush, but it has the same effect. The Maybelline one needs more building up, but it does look gorgeous on the cheeks and the product looks cute ;)


Next favorite is the MAC mineralize blush in Lured to Love (3.5 g) and its a gorgeous peach toned blush and give a lovely glow to the cheeks. I'm all about the glow on summertime :D It doesn't have any shimmer in it, which I like for a change. It just makes your face glow in good way ;)


My next favorite is a more classic pink blush, which you can wear anytime of the year and it's from Gosh. I have talked about this blush many times in my blog and it has been in my favorites as well. Now you all wonder what the hell am I talking about :P I'm talking about their Natural Blush in the shade 43 Flower Power. It gives very natural flush to the cheeks and looks natural, plus it goes with many makeup looks.


The last favorite is from Bourjois and it's their baked blush and is in shade 16 Love-struck Rose. At a first glance it might seem to shimmery and you might think that you will end up like a disco ball when using this blush. Don't be afraid its not the case :) It gives kiss of color to the cheeks and beautiful glow. Can you tell I'm all about the glow on summertime :) 

These are all my favorite blushes to wear on summertime. Hope you enjoyed it and thank you for reading :)

Nabla Skin Glazing and Skin Bronzing swatches

Image
 Since their first release last year, the Nabla Cosmetics Skin Glazing formula has been my favorite highlighter and luminous blush formula in my collection. When they released the two new Skin Glazing blushes together with the new Skin Bronzing range in Summer 2020, I couldn’t resist. Check out the video of me trying them out back when they released. The original Nabla Skin Glazing formula is a thin, finely milled luminous powder that feels very firm and hard pressed in the pan. These are not powders with immediate high pigmentation, but rather ultra thin washes of color and light that melt in the skin, giving a lit from within glow. This still holds for the new Skin Bronzing powders. The new shades of Skin Glazing blushes instead are less luminous than the original Truth and Adults Only, and they are more pigmented. I still like the formula very much, but I am not a fan of of the fact that both new shades are pinks. Nabla Skin Glazing Lola The new Nabla Skin Glazing Lola is a pinky co

The Color Analysis Wars Part 1: introduction and ambivalent reds

Image
Welcome to the first of The Color Analysis Wars! In this series in collaboration with Fran from Being Cute is not a Crime , we will explore some principles of Colour Analysis by comparing lipsticks on ourselves. If your are new to the concept of Seasonal Color Analysis, I will add here a piece written by Rachel at Truth is Beauty : Start by understanding that every part of your natural coloring is in harmony with every other part. Your eyes, skin and true hair color all complement each other perfectly, exactly as they are. To look your most beautiful, you don't need to color your hair. You don't need to wear expensive makeup or expensive clothes.   You only need to identify the palette of colors that harmonizes perfectly with the colors that are already in you. The natural palette of your body harmonizes with one of 12 palettes that differ in warmth ,  chroma (brightness),  and value (lightness). We call these different palettes seasons.
