Happy Tuesday everyone! Hope your weekend went well. 🙂
My ‘Summer Must Have’ series continues with a current obsession: blush!
Let’s dive right in.
Bobbi Brown Blush in Pretty Coral 31
Although I’m not sure why the word coral appears in the name of this blush-even the MUA was confused- this is such a nice pink color that goes perfectly over bronzer. Looks very natural on the skin and can be used as an everyday/work blush.
Burberry  Beauty Light Glow Earthy Blush No. 07
A versatile product that can be used as a blush or contour shade.  This taupe shade has an incredible smooth and  buttery consistency and although there is no shimmer, it has a subtle ‘glowy’ look and is one of the products I reach for when I want the ‘no blush’ blush look.
Cargo Cosmetics Swimmables Water Resistant  Blush in Los Cabos
A generous sample that I received in my May Birchbox, this is what coral looks like to me. I can’t attest to the water resistant claim but I can say it is long-lasting and nicely pigmented. Blending is easy, I think this would look great on multiple skin tones and if this shade doesn’t scream summer, I don’t know what will.
YSL Creme de Blush No. 4 Audacious OrangeÂ
Despite the bright orange color, once blended in, this leaves behind a nice flushed look. Only very little is needed because it’s highly pigmented, it’s easy to work with and holds up in the summer heat. You can’t beat that.
*Note: As I write this, I just noticed that this isn’t readily available anymore but if you can find, I highly recommend it. Â A great and inexpensive alternative is the Colour Pop Super Shock Cheek blushes and my favorite shade is Trickery. Â You can read my review here.

They are so gorgeous especially the bobbi brown shade!! I love them such lovely reccomendations! I’d love it if you could check out my beauty channel 🙂 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCmRvYCkI_la9c-P44dbWUw
Thanks so much and yes I’ll make sure to stop by your channel ?
Any coral pink blushes are my favorite!
So great for summer and Cargo would look great on you! ?
Pretty Coral certainly lives up to its name!
So pretty, though I classify it more as a pink. ?
Pretty colors! You know I love corals! 🙂 xo
Then the Cargo one is great for you though I think the Bobbi Brown blush would look great on you too! Don’t get me started on the Burberry one either lol. A great high end one. ?
They all look great! I saw Annie from Annie’s Beauty do a post on the Burberry one too. It’s great that it can be worn as a blush or for contouring. 🙂
Yes, she did post about this shade too! It’s an amazing product and if you ever get the chance, purchase this one. Promise you won’t regret. 😉
I will definitely keep it in mind. 🙂
Actually, for the WP profile pic I am wearing this one. You can tell the definition but it isn’t super obvious. 🙂
It looks very nice Stephanie! 🙂
Thanks! 🙂
You’re very welcome! 🙂
I have been wanting a cargo blush !!! They look amazing ? my fave at the moment is macs new romance blush 🙂
Oooh I keep an eye out for that one. Yes, Cargo blushes are nice and will last you a long time. ?
I bet!!!:)
Every time I see your pics of the Burberry one I think it is gorgeous!
Oh Cos, I did so much research before purchasing this one. It’s definitely a high end item but so worth it. If you’re ever at a counter where they sell this, check it out. I know you have selective reactive skin (my terminology for it, lol) and I wouldn’t want you to purchase if you can’t exchange it just in case it doesn’t work for you.
Thanks for the info. Yeah, I don’t venture out on blushes too much. Cuz my skin is picky about it. I am pretty loyal to Tarte & Hourglass. Though I do like Cargo & Makeup Geek Romance.
No problem! ? HG has great blushes and haven’t tried MUG blushes but heard good things ?
Cargo is gorgeous!
Agreed! 🙂
Hi Stephie I just nominated you for the Dragon Loyalty Award!
Thanks so much Hilda! Will check it out ?
I think the Cargo Cosmetics will suit me better especially because they are water resistant quite useful for Summer cause Im always at the beach??.Love your tips.

Thanks! I’m sure you will love the Cargo blush. Will check it out ?
I would love to pick up Cargo Cosmetics Swimmables Water Resistant Blush some time and wear it to the pool.
It’s nice! Plus very little is needed so it will last a long time. 🙂
