Sleek Blush by 3 Palette Californ.i.a

OC/ THE SURF/ NEWPORT BEACH

Hello lovelies i ran a giveaway back in January and the prize was to win one of the lovely Blush by 3 palettes in Califon.i.a or Pink lemonade, and i liked the look of them so much that i wanted to treat myself to one too...as you do. 

Im usually one for pretty pink blushers so Pink Lemonade seemed like the obvious choice, however i decided to go for something different for a change. 

"Blush By 3 is the ultimate blush palette offering three times the impact in one compact. With intense pigment, you can use these complimentary shades individually or blend together for a unique shade"

The Califon.i.a palette consists of three cream blushers in gorgeous warm orange shades, i thought this would be a great palette to have for spring and summer to add a healthy flush of colour to the cheeks. 

OC my favorite of the three is a beautiful coral, with a very fine shimmer to it, i personally love corals i think they just look so flattering and pretty on all skin tones. The Surf is a peachy orange with the prettiest fine gold shimmer which i can imagine looking so fresh and healthy on summer skin. Newport Beach is a darker more terracotta orange which i think will be great with a summer tan. Im not used to wearing orange shades on my cheeks but there all such nice colours and are really not as scary as they look in the palette, they come out quiet light and can be easily built up to the colour you desire. 

The formulation is great very smooth and creamy, and their easily bendable. there is nothing worse than a cream blush that blends badly and leaves you with patchy colour on your cheeks! 

Im glad i decided to to try something different and im looking forward to having a play around with these and layering some colours together, i think the darker shade Newport Beach could look great with The Surf on top and may end up being my favorite summer combo. 

Have you tried a Sleek blush palette? Would you be brave enough to try something different?
