    I watched a 2 hour video on blushes…and I probably have worn make up TWICE in the last YEAR!!! Girl, you are THAT GOOD! First of all, this is the most comprehensive make video I have seen. I have always been terrified of blush cuz powders look awful on me and cream/liquid ones seemed so labor intensive. I think I’m going to try the Danessa Myrick balm. As a dermatology nurse I would suggest a bag of frozen peas for that cheek!🤣

      Have you tried the Flower blush bombs (liquid blushes that are high quality, beautiful shades) or the Stila convertible color lip and cheek cream? These two have been my ride or die and camellia is a beautiful more bronze blush shade that works great for both lighter or deeper skin tones and it blends like a dream (even tapping on with your finger.) Great formulas and I never hear anyone talking about the Stila convertible blush, hidden gem imo. And the Stila stays like Fenty all day, without fading at all. I’m usually underwhelmed with Stila products too.

I’d also love to get your thoughts on the Joah beauty brand at CVS because their under eye brightener pen is fantastic and was viral at some point because it’s a lot like the Maybelline Age Rewind (also a click pen but the formula is bomb) and their dropper foundation also was a huge thing because it is also really good.

    I can’t believe I made it to the end. Actually this is one of the most enjoyable videos about make up that I have ever watched, and I’ve been watching them for about nine years now. I learned about your channel from Lisa J. And I’m so glad that I came over and subscribed. I definitely hope that you get a lot of use out of all the products that you bought and that your clients feel very pampered and special when you apply them to their cheeks. I will be binging your videos and coming back for all of your new content. I’m 64, so I use mostly cream blushes now. I own a rose inc. cream blush in heliotrope, one of the tower 28 cream brushes, An hourglass blush and one of their holiday special quads, and I have also been using Lisa Eldridge’s lipsticks as blushes and love them. I have a couple of Daniel Sandler liquid blushes, and find them just lovely. It would be so much fun to see a drugstore version of this, that is if your cheeks can take it.😅

    I use the Benefit Dandelion Powder on the all face, it gives such a nice, healthy glow and color to the skin, specially if you have light (pale) olive skin.
    In fact in the back of the box (the big one, not the mini) is written you can use it as a blush or as a "brightening finishing powder".
    As a blush it works better in very pale skin.
    For me Dandelion is excellent!

    I used to really not understand the Clinique Cheek Pop Blushes until I watched some videos talking about how to use it properly. Basically you have to break that embossed seal on the top by using a stiffer brush, then the product underneath is much easier to apply and looks very natural. You don’t have to go too hard and get rid of the flower pattern or anything like that, you just have to get the top layer that was very hard pressed broken up a bit to get to the actual usable product.

    This was such an amazing video! I have acne scars on my cheeks and the Danessa Myricks blurring blush is my absolute favorite blush for my cheeks. It blurs and lasts ALL day. It’s my favorite.

    VERY impressed with the Rose Inc blush…..I will definitely be getting a couple shades of that one. It looked so beautiful and applied so perfectly at a very decent price. The fact that it offers refills is just another perk since I am very conscious about minimizing plastic use, reducing my footprint, etc. What’s not to love? Thank you for this video…..so helpful!!!

    By far the best video review I’ve even seen!! Most people are long winded and don’t get to the point…you on the other hand are concise and highlight the implant points! This was an amazingly helpful review of some of the most popular brands. PLEASE do one of these on foundations and concealers.

    Buying and putting on 53 blushes - yikes! You epitomized "taking one for the team." This is by far the best video about cosmetics that I have ever watched. You clearly stood in the shoes of us, your audience, to demystify the world of blushes - with expertise, wisdom, compassion, and humor. I've accumulated several of these blushes, but I've rarely used most of them because I've been repeatedly so disappointed with the outcome I get. Because you included showing the right type of brush and demonstrating the specific technique, I have the keys to getting great results with every one of them. I just pull up your video, click on the time stamp for the blush, and follow along. As a bonus, I've learned how to get better results with other products that have confounded me, like cream eyeshadows. I feel like you have given me a birthday present. You transformed what was a so-so makeup collection into the perfect one. I now look forward to putting it on instead of approaching it with trepidation. And I have a better-informed, budget-friendly shopping list for the Sephora sale. A thousand times, thank you.

    I’ve am a retired MUA. I work in the industry 25 years but I still love trying new products. I’m so glad you validated some of the same ones I struggled with. I would see some people love the Haus Labs and as much as I loved the colors, no matter how much I prepared my skin, it always became patchy on me. This video was so helpful. I love this series. ❤

    @lizshoemaker8713 Před rokem +3

    Ok, I finished the whole video and I agree with Mitch. The WHOLE time I was expecting you to switch to your other cheek 😅 none of us would have faulted you for doing so. On the other hand, that just peaks to how good the Dior foundation is because aside from the very slight puffing of your cheek, it covered the irritation very well. I’d like to know which ones came out on top in the end, maybe a top 5 or even ten. I loved this video because it answered so many questions about so many blushes I’ve though about buying, the Merit blush in particular. Again, thank you for doing this video! I wish it would be practical to repeat with other products but I know it’s not and that’s one of the reasons why blush is so fun. 💜💜💜

I will be making several purchases based on the information you have provided over other products I had originally intended to buy. Seeing them actually used in one video really allowed for a great comparison. This was much appreciated. I don’t feel influenced so much as educated.

  • @suecone2198
    @suecone2198 Před rokem

    This was the most in-depth blush review I have ever seen, and I did stay to the end. I am sure your cheek paid the price for all the blush applications it endured! I was thrilled to hear you say there are some fantastic blushes that aren’t so expensive but work great. We all know everything is costing more but if you love makeup it’s great that it doesn’t have to be so expensive to do a great job. I think I have a few of the good ones but I think I also learned a lot about the application of blush and how to do great applications to have a great look instead of a line of blush. THANK YOU! 😊

    I have rewatched this video so many times. I’m a blush lover. My favorite all time blushes are the Hourglass Ambient blushes. I love how easy it’s applied and the glow ❤. It stays all day in this heat. I’m definitely going to be trying new ones from your list.

    Nikki. There are very few words that the hundreds of others have not said. THANK YOU (both) for the ENORMOUS effort, OTT presentation, incredibly well done description, organization, and linking you provided. I tell you this each time- you are the ultimate educator. You are such a bright, classy, skilled and talented woman. I adore and soak up your videos, shorts, all of it. I was literally cringing by the end, w every stipple and brush stroke you took, only imagining how sore your skin HAD to be. I so respect and am grateful for you on many levels.
    When you recover (!) ,( I always wish I could converse with you!) , I have a couple questions: I think we have similar coloring and could you share your Armani Luminous Silk shade for me? That’ll help my judgement somewhat as I try to apply what I learn from you. Secondly, because of that, I see you using warm and cooler shades on lips/cheeks/eyes, and I want to do it too but as hard as I study you/ I just don’t know how to pull it off ( on the pinker side)!! Would love a video on that someday. Or a private session via Zoom!! Heaven!!! You did great, girl!!❤️❤️❤️
