Blushes! Looking forward to Fall!

Hello!

It's almost autumn!!  

Autumn is my favourite season. I think I always looked forward to fall because the leaves change to different colours, and (when I was younger) it was the start of school.  I graduated from school a long time ago, but the feeling of it is still there.  Also, it's time to get my cozy sweaters out again and time to enjoy hot beverages.  The only thing about autumn is, it's followed by winter.  I do like winter, but sometimes it is tough.  

I have some blush swatches to share because I am so excited about autumn colours. These are all my "fall/autumn" shades. I categorize my make up in terms of seasons. I don't know if that's weird or not, but when I put them away for the season, I do make sure that I disinfect it and keep it while.

I took these pictures sometime in August because I was so excited for Fall.  However, I should say that I ended up returning the Urban Decay Rapture and Clinique Cola Pop.  Both are beautiful colours, but I didn't like how it looked on my cheeks. 

These are darker in shades, and it reminded me how cheeks would be when coming from the cold. It's going to be very hard for me to describe the colours. 




1.NYX Spice - very nice pink. I bought this on sale. I haven't worn this on my face but the price was alright.  It seems pretty nice.  I should test this out and update this post at a later date.  Since I can't really comment on it.  This is the only drug store brand I have in this post too, I just realized. 

2. Tarte Dazzled - Described as a soft rose. This has some pink sparkle/glitter in it.  I think it's pretty. 

3. Clinique  Fig Pop - I really like this. I bought this earlier this year during the VIB sale in April. Just because somehow I was very into the fig shade. I'm so happy with this colour and the application. 

4. Clinique Coloa Pop - As I mentioned, I returned this. The pigmentation is wonderful and it is very pretty.  However, it wasn't the look I was going for.  So I did end up returning it.

5. Illamasqua Sleek - This is a cream blush that ends up like a powder. The effect is pretty cool.  I've had this for years, and I should probably throw it away since it is a cream product, but I still have it.  I do like the colour. It is described as a dusty coral. It's not available on the Illamasqua website but there are other colours similar to this. I had ordered this online. 

6. Urban Decay Rapture - I returned this as well.  I think it just looked very dull on my face. So I didn't really like it.  It is a pretty colour though. 

7. Tarte Blushing Bride - Though this is a darker shade, I thought this is very pretty.  There is some shimmer/glitter to it but I like it. 

I hope you have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!
