They are gummy. Moira (cream and liquid), Milani, Makeup Revolution Fast Base, Flower are all better under $10. Persona, Melt, have been on sale for $10. LYS does 40% off on BF so $10. Sephora has a set of 3 for $20 before discount. The ELF were my first cream blushes but got decluttered eventually.
Thank you for mentioning the DS blushes, it's always good to hear how they stack against the newer and trendier blushes out there. I had a Ciele blush in my Sephora cart but I think I'm going to repurchase one from DS instead.
Thank you for sharing all your blushes. I don’t know why but when you started talking about the Laura Mercier I could totally see you doing a full face of Laura Mercier video.
Daniel Sandler watercolour blush was my very first liquid blush, and I fell in love. I’m still in love with the shade Gentle, she’s my old flame. Spice is also beaituful
I use the miracle balm when I just want to throw something on but not really do any makeup. I’ll use the face pencil for any concealing. Throw on mascara and it’s perfect.
I’d completely forgotten about the Daniel Sandler water colour blush…I’ve had a few bottles of ‘flush’ and love it. Just re bought. Thanks for reminding me!
Love these kind of videos! You give alot of good info. On your swatches would you sort of blend them out so we can see what they may look like? But that prolly would take more time😊
Ah the DS watercolour blushes, an oldie but a goodie. Ive had mine for a lot longer than 6 months & they're still just as good. A new find of recent that I'm enjoying are the Tarte maneater liquid blushes. Very easy to use & you get lots of poduct. Just wish there were more colours.
Love these videos, Shelbey! Please keep them coming! I'm looking forward to part 2 and adding to my wishlist. :) I'm really struggling with finding my ride or die concealer. Hint-Hint!
I’m very curious about the Persona blushes (make up artist Andrea Ali also raves about them) but unfortunately they don’t sell in the UK and the delivery price puts me off buying.
Love my Daniel Sandler Watercolor blushes (Angel and Golden Glow) and they are as pigmented today as the day I bought them (probably 3yrs ago… so… most likely expired😂🤣) have never found anything as good as these❤ and I truly wish I had the option to get those travel sizes of MB instead of the regular sizes I did get (I have Miami Beach, Bronze, Golden Glow and Au Natural) and quite certain I’ll have these 5yrs from now…. Don’t need to use a lot and the regular size is huge❤
Didn't even notice the length l, this video was so informative! I also dislike the elf putty blush, but for me it's cos they all pull pink. Don't find them any good for olive skin
Wut?! I had no idea the Daniel Sandler blushes had just a 6 month shelf life!! I have barely used mine and going to try to finish it up as much as possible now.
Pigmentation is important for inclusivity. I would rather improve my technique and skill than have people excluded from being being able to use a product. Some brands do it better than others (Mario, Persona) where it's easily workable for all skintones.
What has that have to do this anything lol. What you’re referring to is DEPTH not pigmentation. Some of y’all need to use logic over emotions, as most sound like the “I didn’t get my participation trophy”. If you are black as night then inclusivity really isn’t a thing that matters or is even remotely relevant. However if you’re pale then yes, why bc contours and blush will show up when you have a light background vs a black or deep one. Sure I’ve seen some very dark ppl use bright red blush and it shows up a tiny bit (mind you it’s not the formula or the blush that’s the issue). There’s just no point in making products that inherently won’t work or show up just to make ppl feel included that doesn’t make sense. And please leave the “racist” comments out as it’s laughable,
Great video, Shelby. Thanks for putting this together. Quick channel note: I’m not exactly sure, but I think I’ve subscribed to your channel 2-3 times now. Seems I may be getting kicked off the subscriber “list” somehow. Has anyone else complained of such an issue with your channel?
The swatches are super helpful but I'm a bit disappointed that you didn't describe the longevity of these blushes...that's such an important factor with cream blushes and would be helpful to know.
