La Femme Blushes - WOC friendly!! - Page 5

Awwwww, honey!!! I feel for you! I LOVE Sienna and have a few backups. La Femme blushes do break/crumble easily I'm finding out.

Hey does anyone know if any of these blushes can be used as bronzer for someone with NW45 skintone?

Try Sienna and Russet. They won't be golden looking (still looking for a bronzer that does that), but they will give you that "sunkissed" look (how skin that's been in the sun gets a bit redder and browner). Use a VVVEERRYY light hand tho.

I'm so late on these. I'm trying really carefully not to pick dupes..I have over 70 blushes!! Annoyingly Coral is not listed on Cocktail Cosmetics - UK La Femme stockists. Grrr!

Keep checking back as their stock changes all the time, and colours are not listed if they are sold out at the time.  Same with love-makeup.co.uk - they also seem to be out of Coral at the moment, but I know they've had it recently as I bought some from them.

they are out of russet and coral I will have to make a second order when they get them back in stock....I'm off to finish my first order of La Femme blushes!

Hi

Love these blushes and hope to add Russet to my collection. Use a normal blush brush but a verrrrrrry light hand. The fact that the blush stays in place all day is a big plus. Paying over £15 for a any blush doesn't make sense to me, so I was glad to stumble across this thread and Colouredbeatiful / DestinyGodley / AfricanExport/ Gossmakeupartist YouTube reviews last year.

Thank you for the swatches posted on the earlier pages- really helped.

It's been over a year and I want to add to my collection. I don't really want to use MakeUpMania as they took well over a month to ship to London, UK without any updates to my order's progress, despite charging me over $13 for shipping ; aside from the aforementioned UK sites in the above posts, is anyone aware of any UK sites that stock all of the La Femme blushes?

Wow thanks. I have placed an order!

I got two La Femme blush palettes last year. Absolutely love them! I've been talking myself out of getting a third. I've been successful so far, but don't know how long that will last. I may post swatches of them if I get the chance.

Is there any reliable website to get la femme blushes other than makeupmania?

I swear they have gotten better, ordered twice this month arrived 3 or 4 days later! Camerareadycosmetics.com is the other one as well as beautydive.com(ordered from here, great shipping)

I'm aware people have had issues with makeupmania, but I didn't have any problems when I placed my two orders. I think I may go ahead and get a third palette before the price increases on the blushes and I will order it through them.

i ordered from makeupmania last week i think? and got my order within a week. i wasn't at home when it got delivered but between the time i ordered it and the time i came back, it had been a week.

They've definitely gotten better, even keeping their website updated as to out of stock blushes.   I ordered my second palette a couple of weeks ago and got it within a week.

I love LaFemme Blushes! Russet and Golden Sunset are my faves. And they are soooo cheap! I dont think I will ever buy a high-end blush again after trying these!

Well, I've failed miserably in talking myself out of a third palette, lol. I did order through makeupmania again and just like with my previous orders, I didn't have any issues.

Well - Thanks to you all I just ordered several La Femme blushes from MakeupMania.

I need more blush like I need a hole in my head.

I tried to select shades that are not represented in my entire blush collex.

I had about 7 or 8 shades in my cart but narrowed it down to the ones I thought were the most unique. The others are on my wish list.

I made off with:

Red

Purple Passion

Mulberry

Brick Red

I will be doing some serious blushing this fall and winter!

  I want to get the remaining colors I don't have.

I was coming on here to post that I just placed my order. I ordered 9 more to complete my La Femme Blush collection.

Soft Beige
Rose

Pink

Orchid Ice
Naturelle

Lilac Champagne
Brandy Ice
Apricot

I now have all of the La Femme blushes except Scarlet. I didn't order it because I needed to sacrifice one blush. The palettes hold 12 and I only have room for 9 more. I also thought Scarlet would be the lightest of the pinks and wouldn't do anything for me.

Did you get anything?

Plum frost
Purple passion
I already have another palette. So that is about half of the Lafemme blushes. I will wait till another sale to purchase some more.

How did the coupon apply to the palette? I didn't test it out to see if I would've been better off with the palette instead of the individual pans.

Hey Cartoon chic,

sorry i am replying so late .I am experiencing some growing pains with my new samsung galaxy 2 7.0 I got on black friday for $99. My son won't relinquish my IPAD.  LOL

The palette was not discounted.  I didn't pay attention in my mad dash.  LOL

Lol, you got the palette and the colors you wanted, so that's what matters most. Besides, you got an amazing deal on the Samsung.
