I Dig Matte Baby Pink Blush, and So Should You.
As promised, I am swatching shu uemura glow on blush m pink 33e, a warm matte baby pink.

At first glance, it looks too light to show up on my NC 35 (or probably even darker) skintone. But it is just light enough to add brightness to my skin when it is looking dull. Like when I don’t get enough sleep because a kitten woke me up at 6:00 am.

And here I thought a colour like this would look chalky on me. It is quite subtle, but I am really loving this on its own for an (almost) makeup-free weekend, or over bronzer for an extra ka-pow! The blush is very smooth so I could really layer it to get the effect I want.

Here I buffed the blush onto my cheeks. It’s like angels kissed my cheeks. Am I right?!
Usually I don’t take flash photos because they look too harsh. But it’s the best way to show off the colour; otherwise under artificial light my camera will not pick it up. I ran out of daylight because of this little riot:

How does one fall in love with a kitten after only 2 days?
Oh and she just loves playing with crumpled up paper balls.

OK now I want this blush— I need it for those days when I am woken up at 6 a.m! I had a cat just like yours a long time ago — such a cutie.
