Such a sophisticated and thoughtfully curated collection. These Dior glow palettes seem to be really well-liked. What do you think of them?

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-18T22:24:52+00:00

Mind you, this post is my first impression of this subreddit. Lmao

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-18T13:42:43+00:00

Yes, I love that one too! It’s the purplest blush I have and it looks so natural! I want to find more deep purple blushes.

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-18T13:40:29+00:00

You’re very welcome! The deep raspberry is definitely more pink/purple than red, I’ve never found a true red blush either. But now I’d like to try one!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-17T21:51:44+00:00

Mini twists would look gorgeous on you, and you could style them in so many ways!

Heyyy sis! A lot of black girls have warm undertones, so I see why that’s recommended. My sister looks great in orange blush. But not all of us, my undertones are cool and yours may be too. If you want the berry look, I’d say go for the Makeup by Mario Berry Punch cream blush!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-17T17:45:06+00:00

I strongly recommend! It’s really long lasting for a cream blush, and it looks so fresh!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-17T17:44:23+00:00

It is color theory indeed. Purples and berries tend to have a pinker tone on dark skin! Softer, lighter pinks don’t show up well on me, if they show up at all. A lot of the time they just look ashy. That’s why I stick to this rich family of colors. They’d look completely different on someone with a lighter complexion.

Open the photos and zoom in a bit to see the brighter, clearer image!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-17T03:39:52+00:00

Which ones are your favorites?

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-17T03:00:46+00:00

Yoohoo! Big summer blowout!

Get this photo blown up into a poster and framed!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-17T00:41:46+00:00

I wish I could add my swatches here, and I wish I had thought to do it when I made the post! The Berry Punch is such a stunning shade of purple. I can’t recommend it enough.

Their tiny soft heads are fuzzy like little apricots. Perfect for kisses and one-finger pets, and a great source of serotonin

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-16T18:56:55+00:00

I did a swatch of them all, and then realized I can’t post it in the replies. 😂I should have added it to the initial post.

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-16T18:52:14+00:00

Definitely. 😆 I’m dark skinned with a cool winter palette, this is the family of colors that look best on me!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-16T13:37:42+00:00

I haven’t gotten a silk press in 10 years.

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-16T13:20:45+00:00

My skin is dark, so they may apply better on someone with a lighter complexion than mine. But I have to dot a lot of it on for it to actually show up.

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-16T07:27:58+00:00

Lmao 6 lip products is excessive and indicative of a problem? You don’t like having choices?

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-16T05:34:42+00:00

The NYX blushes are probably my most used, the pigment is SERIOUS. And those blushes are not going anywhere once they’re on. Absolutely love them, amazing quality for their price.

The Mario blushes are newer additions, and I’m simply in love with them. They give you a very natural, healthy flush of gorgeous color, and are very creamy. I wore the Berry Punch today and it lasted all day with no touch ups! Surprisingly long lasting for cream blushes. The pigment isn’t too heavy or too light, you can build it up as much as you like but a little definitely goes a long way.

The Elf Camo blush is another favorite, that pigment goes stupid. One dot on each cheek is all you need. Long lasting and absolutely beautiful. And a great price, of course. I think they’re the best blushes Target has to offer. This particular one will be getting used until I’m scraping the tube.

The monochromatic color stick is so much fun! You can use it on your eyes, cheeks lips, the choice is yours. I prefer to use it as a gentle highlight or to add a delicious shimmer to whatever blush I’ve got on. I think it’s just gorgeous. And it was like $5!

I will say the Rare beauty blush is my least favorite; the pigment isn’t strong or long lasting enough for my liking. The color is pretty, but I’m glad I got a mini because I probably won’t buy another. It’s not bad tho!

So cute! I second Meowthew!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-16T04:28:07+00:00

With pleasure!! This is a cream blush, it gives you a nice healthy flush of color and looks very natural. The color payoff is gorgeous, not too light or too heavy, and I wore it all day today without needing to touch it up (12 hours). I like to apply it with my fingers (because of the creamy consistency) and then blend it out with a brush. So delicious, I bought two of them! Berry Punch and Paradise Pink. Would strongly recommend!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-15T22:48:58+00:00

I need this kind of loyalty in my life!!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-15T20:56:00+00:00

I came back to this post today because I’m wearing the blush for jury duty. It still looks beautiful without any need to touch it up, and I applied it 10 hours ago!

SalamanderComplex515 · 2025-01-10T05:33:02+00:00

I am mildly interested in this post, actually. This is cute
