AUTUMNAL BLUSHES

Autumn is almost here or it's probably here by now and I am welcoming it with open arms. Autumn is probably my favourite season. Okay, it's a tie with Summer. I love the colour that Autumn brings and the cosiness I always associate it with. Big scarves, hot chocolates with marshmallows, cosy blankets, etc. As the weather changes, my make-up choices change as well. I will be sharing with you my top 5 blushes that I will be using throughout Autumn and probably Winter.

Hourglass Mood Exposure  Ambient Lighting Blush- It had taken me quiet a while to take the plunge to buy this blush due to the price tag. A big thanks to the Space NK discount code and a little push from my friend Jasmine. Mood Exposure is a muted rosey plum with warm undertones. It has a sheeny finish to it. Although it is a powder blush, it melts to the skin and looks natural and smooth. Its staying power is also good which is more than seven hours on me. Overall, I am really pleased with this blush.

Stila Poppy Convertible Color Lip and Cheek Cream- One of my newest discovery last summer and I have been reserving for Autumn is the Stila Poppy Convertible Color. Poppy is quiet scary on the pan but is actually very wearable. It gives a nice flushed tint on the cheeks that can be sheered out or built up according to your preferences and skin tone. As it is a cream blush, it lasts ages and looks natural on the cheeks.

Topshop Dream Phone Blush- Dream Phone has been a long time favourite of mine. It is a medium dusky rose shade with very little gold shimmers running through it. The gold shimmers are subtle and not full on in your face and just adds gives an edge to the blush. It is a very pretty on the cheeks and it blends easily on the skin. The colour is true to pan. Dream Phone also lasts ages which is more than six hours.

Bobbi Brown Rose Pot Rouge for Lips and Cheeks- Another cream blush that I crack on every Autumn and Winter. Rose is a medium dusky rose and has a sheeny finish. It is very pigmented but can easily sheered out. It looks very beautiful on the cheeks and very flattering.This also lasts ages and the monochrome packaging is uber chic.

Mac Gingerly Sheertone Blush- Possibly my favourite Mac blush of all time. Gingerly is a medium peach shade with warm undertones. It has a sheertone finish so you can start sheer and build it up whichever you prefer. It great to use as a contour whilst still adding peachy tint on the cheeks. Gingerly is understated yet looks real fab on the cheeks.

So these are my top five Autumnal blushes. What are your Autumnal blush staple?
