Fall Favorites : The Blush Edition

I'm changing things up again this week. I feel like I've been saying that a lot lately but with the changing seasons I'm feeling like doing things a little different. This week instead of doing a weekly favorites I want to express my love for my favorite Fall blushes. Since Fall is my favorite time of year and blushes are (one of) my favorite products I love busting out these festive colored beauties.




I'm going to say this now, and most likely I will say this again at some point on this very same blog, about a very different blush, but you know when you put a blush on your face and you feel like it's the one? That's this blush for me. I feel like this blush is my color. The best part? It's only a buck! This is the L.A. Colors blush in the color Berry Plum. It looks super shimmery in the pan but blended out it's not as shiny and the perfect plum color. The staying power, when paired with a primer, is literally all day (I wear makeup most days for 11 to 12 hours!). For that price you really can't ask for a more perfect blush!



This second blush is an e.l.f. baked blush that is a beautiful golden toasty color with a hint of red. It's in the color Rich Rose (the name is slightly deceiving) and it gives a gorgeous, natural flush to the cheeks.



This blush is a lot like the first one I talked about, only slightly pinker in color. It's an e.l.f. blush in the color Berry Merry. If that name doesn't get you excited for the holidays I don't know what will. It's definitely one of my favorites in the colder seasons.



This is another L.A. Colors blush (thus only $1) in the shade Toast. It's a really pretty peachy nude blush that's perfect for days when I don't want to pile on a bunch of makeup. You can layer it to make it more vibrant, but I like the slight wash of color.



This last blush has clearly seen better days, but it's one of my favorites. It's in the shade Mellow Wine by Wet n' Wild and it's a perfect year round, every day, every skin tone kind of color. I like that it's a slightly deeper pink which to me just screams Fall.

I am loving all the deeper jewel tones right now, how about you? What blushes do you reach for as the weather cools down?

    1. I can get in such a rut when I find a product I love, I always try rotating things in and out of my sight so I can make sure I give all my makeup some love! The elf one is super good, it's one of my favorites. Thanks so much for stopping in you beautiful lady! XO -Kim
