Autumn Coral Cheeks

The days are getting shorter and there is definately a nip in the air, it’s fair to say Autumn is well and truly upon us! I was really into light bronzy hues and pale pink cheeks for Summer, and have tuned my tastes into a more warmer tone for Autumn. I really like No.7 blushers and this gorgeous creamy coral is the perfect alternative to all the plummy tones currently out in force.

I love my current combo, the Boots No.7 ‘Coral Flush’ adds a gorgeous flush of colour, the blusher itself is matte, creamy and highly pigmented so just a light touch is all I need. I love the New CID i-glow blusher on the apples of my cheek and up into my hairline to add a slight glow, the two hues blend beautifully and give the perfect coral cheek!

The i-glow is v.similar to a MAC MSF and but slightly more pigmented IMO. I like wearing it on its own on simple makeup days and love the fact it’s glowy, but not shimmer overload. I’m getting rid of my MAC MSfs for this, that’s how much I love it!!!!!!! I rarely wear my MSFs but find myself reaching for this almost daily.

Boots No.7 Coral Flush £8.75 available at Boots.com

New CID i-glow Coral Crush £23.50 available at Debenhams & NewCIDcosmetics.com

What’s on your cheeky cheeks this Autumn?

    Oooooh, me likey the No 7 blush. I've been wearing MAC Springsheen and the new Rose Gold Sleek blush all the time at the moment, really liking the gold shimmer they both have.

      I LOVE No.7 blushers, I'm nearly out of my beloved Honey! The gold shimmer in the i-glow is really flattering on pale skintones, I saw another blogger wearing it and she managed to capture the shimmer in the picture and it looked lovely x

      I really like the blushers and the metallic eye pencils, the lipsticks aint too bad, and the nail polishes are awesome! Also the face wipes are the best I've ever used x
