Orange Blushes

It's the summer and time to tan and wear a blush shade suitable: orange! I want to show you my collection because even though orange blush might all look the same, all of them have a big variety of tones!

Although I have to admit I'm guilty of wearing orange blush all year round, it just works the best for my skin tone :3 This post will be similar to the highlighting post I made earlier this week!

My collection:
Top: Eyemazing Cosmeline in Miracle Orange, NYX Rouge Cream Blush in Orange
Bottom: Diamond Blush in Honey Orange, NYX Powder Blush in Cinnamon

Swatches:
Left to right: Eyemazing, NYX Cream Blush, NYX Powder Blush and Diamond Blush.

Thoughts on each product:
Eyemazing:
- A nice orange-gold color with a matte finish. Very similar to Diamond Blush, without the glitter.
- Pigmented well.
- Suitable for all skin tones.
- Price is high for the amount you get (1260yen for 3kg).

NYX Cream Blush:
- An orange-red tone with a matte finish.
- Highly pigmented, please don't go overboard or else you'll look like a clown!
- Better suited for medium-dark skintones.
- Very fair price for the amount you get ($6.50 for 3.5kg).

NYX Powder Blush:
- An orange-yellow tone with a matte finish, a great dupe for Candy Doll's Carrot Orange.
- Pigmented well.
- Suitable for all skin tones.
- Great blush for a great price ($6.50 for 6.4kg).

Diamond Blush:
- My #1 favorite blush of all time! :D
- An orange-gold tone very similar to Eyemazing with lots of glitter.
- Pigmented well.
- Better suited for girls with a more glam make up style.
- Great blush for a great price (1050yen for 6kg).
