Springsheen dupe. First NARS cream blush. New favorite NYX lipstick...

Hello Girlies,
Last year, I got a blush from Sephora called " Corail Frisson #5" ($12), it's a peachy coral color with golden sheen...
I recently realized that it was the perfect MAC Springsheen dupe, which is I think my favorite blush ever !

Overall I will say that the Sephora's one has a bit less sheen and bigger "glitters" than Springsheen but on the skin you can't see the difference they are really similar.

This morning I received Orange Soda from NYX (I bought it on eBay), and I love it..No...I adore it. It's a creamy matte light orangy shade.

This is my new favorite nude lipstick (until the next one...of course).

Next is Lokoum from NARS, (this is my first cream blush), Lokoum is a pinky/reddish color with golden sheen. Beautiful.

I really like it because my skin likes reddish/orangy blushes, even if my eyes prefer the pinkies and purples ones, they just don't work for me =(

Picture me wearing my new babies, NARS Lokoum and NYX Orange Soda !

  22. I so love the nude lip look and it's nice to know what to actually try (although not sure it would look good as I'm super fair). Your makeup looks so pretty all the same :)
