Review: La Femme blushes

About 3 weeks ago, Wayne of Gossmakeupartist on Youtube let the world know of the amazing blushes La Femme cosmetics produces. I took the plunge that weekend and ordered all the ones he mentioned that were suited for all skin tones.

Due to Wayne's suggestion to order them online from MakeupMania.com, I got each of them for $2.50. They are amazingly well priced for such fantastic quality! I got them in the mail about a week and a half after ordering them, which was torture! However, it was worth the wait!



I also ordered a MAC blush palette, but ended up removing the insert since I wasn't 100% certain how large the La Femme blushes were.

Wayne was so right - these blushes are INCREDIBLY pigmented. I use my Sigma Duo Fibre Powder/Blush brush (F15) to apply these :)







This is Coral Spice. It looks almost red, but it's SO gorgeous!





Next is Peach Sparkle - it, of course, has subtle sparkle in it.





Terracotta is a gorgeous, sparkly bright pop of color!





Peach is so lovely - adds a subtle glow to the cheeks.





Coral Spice has a soft hint of shimmer - not in the least bit too much :)




Mandarin Red is more of a pink with lovely shimmer as well :)




I am over the moon in love with these blushes. One of the best purchases I have made in a long time! I now know that I really have absolutely no reason to get any blushes for quite a long time, due to La Femme's pigmentation and price :)

Thanks so much for stopping by! :)

  1. Do you find them quite powdery or are they finely milled? I have to say I like really soft buttery blushes that glide on so I wasn't too sure about these even after the lovely Wayne's review, what do you think? xoxo
