Blush Colors for nw40+

[Salsa91501]

I don't know if this was already posted or not but I wanted some ideas of good blush colors for nw45+ skin tones. Any brands Mac, Nars, Mac Pro, Stila, Drugstore Brands . . . . WHATEVER.

All kinds of colors BOLD, REDS, PINKS, BROWNS . . . etc. It's just harder to find blush colors for darker skin tones. Help me out guys and let me know what you like to use.

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was wondering this as well. I am an NC43 and I only use Mac's Ambering Rose for now and sometimes Dusty Coral pigment lightly.

I am NW 45/47 and i use/recommend the following

1. Dollymix
2. Trace gold
3. Honor
4. Blunt
5. Raizin ( absolutely love this)
6. Pinch me
7. Sweet as cocoa
8. Sunbasque
9. ambering rose
All these blushes are by mac

Coastal scents sells a blush palette which is also very nice if you dont want to spend alot of money on blush. But you should definately get at least 1 by MAC

I am NW47/50 and I love blish

I would recommend:
Trace Gold(highlight)
Sweet As Cocoa
Format
Dollymix
Azalea
Devil
Breezy or Raisin
Blunt (contour)- although I am looking for a darker colour

 

[Prototype83]

I'm NW50 and I like

MAC
Merrily
Love Thing
Dollymix
Tippy from HK
Salsarose (PRO)
Devil (PRO)
Sweet As Cocoa
Azalea (love it!! Also PRO)
Breezy

NARS Taj Mahal is also very pretty

A good drugstore blush is Black Radiance. All 4 of the colors are pigmented and look nice on darker skin.

I'm NC43 andI love Gingerly by MAC, also a good brighter blush for going out is Super Orgasm by NARS.

- MAC Blonde Brunette Redhead MSFs
- MAC Metal Rock, Shimpagne
- MAC Don't Be Shy, True Romantic, Love Joy
- Shu Uemura P Peach 47, P Wine 25

My first MAC blush was Raizin, and it's one of my faves. I also like:


Merrily (Mineralize LE)
Love Thing (Mineralize)
Dollymix
Ambering Rose
Lovecrush ( discontinued)

And So Ceylon MSF alone or with any blush

From NARS:

Taj Mahal and Exhibit A... Super Orgasm if you can deal with the glitter... I can't get the hang of it



From Milani:

Mai Tai




From Coastal Scents or any ebay seller with the same palette:


The 26 pan Shadow Blush palette. The darkest blush is almost the same as MAC Lovecrush ( not Loverush!) except Lovecrush has some shimmer and this dupe is matte ( but long wearing and well pigmented)

I just started using blush. Its confusing finding one that works for your skin tone and personality. But Mac sweet as cocoa was my first blush and was bronzy. Taj mahal makes my nw45-50 skin look beautiful!

 

[ajenee]

Hi guys. I am a newbie over here. I've recently become a big blush fan. I am Nw45.So far I have:

Nars Taos

Peachtwist

Brunette MSF

DeepDark MSF

Love Thing

BB Plum

Ben Nye:

Orangepop and PurplePassion

 

[User38]

Nars Sin, Nars Crazed, Bobbi Brown Poppy... and all of the above MAC

 

[LatinaRose]

You should get Nars Crazed!! Its the sexiest, just got f--ked flush ever. I have to use a light hand with it depending on how dark I am so it'll surely be perfect for you.

I also use Orgasm, Outlaw, and Lovejoy.

From MAC I like Dollymix and Sweetness, not really much else. I want to try Sunbasque.
