What e/s, blush would you recommend?

Post by serendipity » Thu Jan 28, 2010 8:08 am

I have a bundle of e/s and blush from "company that shall not be named" :) so I really don't *need* any more, but I just placed an order for some lippies, so I thought if I could get recommendations of e/s and blush that would coordinate with my lip colors I can save them for my next order. I have pictures of myself on the Foundation Help thread at pg 22 and I just posted a FOTD. I gravitate towards natural, light and sweet looks. Anyways, the lip colors I have are : Aria, Bloom, Vintage, Gleaming, and Mirabelle.

Thanks! :D

Thanks for those recommendations! I've put them all in my wishlist! I'm also thinking of possible putting breathe, highbeam, and hint and naughty in my wishlist - would they be good? I do like purple, but nothing too dark, more the light lavendar or light dusty shades.

edit: actually, would dreamy and breathe be too similar to warrent getting both of them?

Dreamy is light lavendar frost.....Breathe is more cool toned pink with a blue interference...yes they are both purple, but Breathe is almost more pink than purple.

The colors you picked sound great!

Yes, totally agree! I bet those would both be really cute on you.

Maybe Chills also, or Hint or Whisper? I think Hint was on your list already.

I also like the light, soft looks. I really like Flare blush with Mirabelle, as well as Stardust and Wish You Were Here.

I was going to say Stellar, too! :D I like Sandy e/s with Stellar. I wore that today with Bubbly on the outer edge (Bubbly was a GWP). The Crystal Glow is pretty, and is a nice finish.

Purrr e/s is my favorite; I wear it almost every day as a wash. I also agree with Jen about Sonic e/s!

If you don't have one of the fiber optic blush brushes, you need to try one. They are just the right size and keep the blush where you want it--not from eyes to chin like some larger brushes! ;)
