NYX Desert Rose Blush, $4.99 at Ulta
I love this blush! I had it for a while and I cracked the heck out of it on my bathroom floor. Sad face. Well I got another one from Ulta recently and let me tell you I am soooo excited that I have it back! NYX makes really pretty inexpensive blushes that are so good and affordable you have to check them out if you haven’t already.
At $5 this shade is a beauty bargin and a staple in my makeup stash!
I feel like it looks a little deeper in color in the picture that I took above. But hopefully you get the idea that this color is a really pretty pink. Here are some pictures in sunlight of this shade swatched on my skin.
I love how this brightens up my cheeks and if your looking for an inexpensive pretty blush for Spring consider this! Some other colors I love from NYX are Cinnamon (bright orange) and Mocha. At $5 you can’t go wrong. These blushes are pigmented and last all day long. Check them out if you need another inexpensive but beautiful blush in your life!

I recently got desert rose, cinnamon and cocoa from hautelook for $10 for the set of 3. I really love all three colors. I was pleasantly surprised with cinnamon, I was afraid it was going to come off too orange on me.

What a great deal! Cinnamon is surprisingly wearable-it looks like it might be too much on the cheeks but it looks beautiful and can really make your skin look glowy!

I love blush colors like this. Surprisingly enough I don’t own any NYX blushes. I had picked up 2 from Ulta but returned them. They were lighter shades. This one, Cinnamon and one of their Mosaic blushes (the orange one) have been on my radar.
crystalis007 says
Oh you gotta try Cinnamon!!! I need to pick up an Orange Mosaic, I don’t have any of those! Ulta here I come….lol!

That blush is so pretty! Shame I can’t get NYX in the UK though. I recently posted about Nars Exhbit A blush on my blog, if you want to take a look.
crystalis007 says
It’s a shame its not there too! I love Exhibit A and Taj Mahal such great blushes and then there are Dolce Vita, Desire, and Mata Hari-I love them all!

Hi,
Just to let you know, we can get NYX in the UK. Granted it is not as reasonable as in the US. the website is http://www.nyxcosmeticsstore.co.uk/ Also, there are some trusted dealers on ebay that you can use.
