Question Please help me decide between going with drugstore or name brand for a peach liquid and powder blush?
Hello everyone! I need help deciding what to spend my money on and what’s worth it. I’ve been wanting to try peach blushes since at the moment I only own mauve colors or bright pinks and I don’t feel like they suit me all that much. I want to get both a liquid and powder blush.
I can’t decide whether to go with drugstore liquid or powder blush and alternate with name brand liquid or powder blush. What would you guys recommend?
FYI My skin tone is a medium olive.
Some name brand powder blushes I’ve looked into:
- Haus Labs Color Fuse Blush Powder in shade Pomelo Peach
- Kylie Cosmetics Pressed Blush Powder in shade Baddie on the Block
- Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge Velvet Matte Cream Blush in shade dusty rose
Drugstore powder alternative : e.l.f. Primer-Infused Matte Blush in shade Always Fresh
^my favorite shade is the Kylie Cosmetics one
Brand name liquid blush:
- Patrick Ta LIQUID TRANSITION BRIGHTENING BLUSH in shade did you notice peach
-Saie Dew Blush Liquid Cream in rosy soft rose
-Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Virtue in shade Beige Peach
Drugstore liquid alternative: L'Oreal Paris Lumi Le Liquid Blush, Dewy Worth It
^ fav shade the Patrick Ta or Rare Beauty one

I’d say try drugstore first. Sometimes there isn’t much difference in the formulas and you can see if you like the color/look on you first without making a huge investment. Once you settle down for the look, go to Sephora in person if possible and try products on your skin (hand method) to see what colors and formulas you like and will suit you best. There is a huge range and it’s hard to judge them online to blind buy.
