WOC, what're your favourite neutral blushes?
I just picked up a sample of a Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge in Summer Tan and it's the perfect 'neutral' blush on my NC40-42 skin! Usually I go for peachy colours but this is completely different and I think it looks great on me. It sort of defines my cheeks in a subtle way that's different to bright blush or contouring.

Now i'm dying to try out some more tan and beige blushes for subtle cheek definition on those minimal makeup or strong eye days. I hear Chanel has a good one, better research the name! I'm guessing a lot of tan/beige colours won't show up though so it's a case of trying and testing. Bleh.

So anyway, my question -

WOC, what are your favourite neutral blushes and what is your skin tone?

Re: WOC, what're your favourite neutral blushes?
I consider blushbaby a subtle neutral blush and I like a lot. Gingerly is a bit of a peachy brown, but its more neutral then peach. But in any cause I would also love to know so more neutral blushes. And what really defines a neutral blush?

Re: WOC, what're your favourite neutral blushes?
My first instinct was the say "Gingerly". I think I look fresh-faced in that color. It's subtle like "hi I'm a Cover Girl girl" and less "hi I'm a MAC Girl girl" ;-p

Re: WOC, what're your favourite neutral blushes?
I'm a NC50/NW47 and my favorite neutral blush is Eversun! It suits my skintone really well and I love that blush to death! I would love to try some other neutral blushes like Sunbasque.

Re: WOC, what're your favourite neutral blushes?
Another vote for Eversun as a wearable neutral! I'm big on bold and brash blush, but on those days where I want to tone it down, I reach for Eversun.

Re: WOC, what're your favourite neutral blushes?
Does Gingerly and Blushbaby show up on NC50 skin?

My natural blushes are Mac Eversun and Superdupernatural and La Femme Blush on Rouge in Plum Frost, for high shimmer products, Mac So Ceylon, Nars LoveJoy. Cream Blush NYX in Tan.

I also hear that Nars Dolce Vita is a natural matte rosy color.

If EVERSUN shows on you, GINGERLY should show too. BUT IMO you don't need both. They are very very similar.

Re: WOC, what're your favourite neutral blushes?
I LOVE Ambering Rose

When applied with a light hand it almost looks kind of orangey (but very neautral) in photographs and it's gorgeous.

But when you really put it on it's this beautiful rosey color, it's hands down my favorite MAC blush, it's also the first blush I ever purchased from them.

I have the same issue and I'm NC 50/55. Clearly I'm doing something wrong.

Re: WOC, what're your favourite neutral blushes?
I love neutral blushes. I really like to go for either matte neutral cheeks with a highlighter like Albatross or Petticoat, or a Mineralized neutral like Global Glow or Warm. Some of the colored msfs are sheer and it will give a subtle glow if you apply it with a light hand.

Re: WOC, what're your favourite neutral blushes?
yeah im NW45 and Eversun def didnt show up on me as a blush maybe as a highlighter...I think my skin is too orange/red for it to show up...same thing with Sunbasque, now that makes a really pretty highlight colour on my NW45 skin
Nars Lovejoy is really pretty but for me I find that I have to layer it on for it to show the way i like it to, same with Nars Torrid but they're both really pretty
