Blush PIP - Which do you like better?

I PIP'd this first picture yesterday which most of you liked! Now I'm trying to pick between number 1 or 2. I THINK I like #1 better but I'm REALLY new to the world of blushes and woudl love input. 

First one: NARS - Desire

Second one : MAC Pink Tea (only on one side of the face sorry)!

Re: Blush PIP - Which do you like better?

  • Definitely the first.
  • I still like #1 because if you want to go darker you can apply more layers but with #2 it looks pretty intense from the get go.  
  • The first one looks more natural so I pick that one.  And it looks like the color that you would naturally blush in.

    An unsolicited tip, if you don't mind.  You should apply blush to the apples of your cheeks.  You find them by smiling really hard and it's the round mound.  Then relax your face and blend well, gently towards the direction towards your ears.

    If you wanted to add a highlighter (not necessary), you do that in between your eyes and where you put the blush.  Again, blend well.

  • Absolutely the 1st one.

    I really appreciate the application tip! I'm soooo new to this it's overwhelming where to put bronzer, blush and highlighter!!

    You have a very similar face shape as me, ovaly-round with less prominent cheek bones, and I tend to keep the blush just around where my cheekbones are from the outside of my eye up. 

    I saw someone on YouTube do it that way (so farther from your nose and the circley parts of the apples of your cheeks) and I think it really helps slim my face down and with pink undertones in my skin, it keeps it looking intentional and less like rosacea or a skin condition.

  • First one, hands down!
  • first, but I think both are a little too dark pink for your skintone
  • WE both have very similar skin tones. Have you checked out NARS Deep Throat or Madly? A tad more coral/peach which would look great with your complexion!
