The last couple of years, I went over board buying blushes of all kinds, mostly drugstore. And I got to a point where I was not liking any of them. Recently I got rid of all the blushes I didn't love, and I am very satisfied with the ones I kept. For me, too much of anything will only cause unnecessary indecision. And no matter the price point, they all fade. This is why I stopped buying high end blush years ago. The ones I currently own are just as good as any high end blush.
I’m an hourglass blush STAN. They are the best Ive found. And the travel size is worth it, I use mine all them time, and not even close to finished it up. Ps. I have it in luminous flush, I highly recommend 😊
Hourglass came out with a new pallet it released yesterday one is blushes and highlight and the other is bronzer and finishing powders they look really pretty. I love hourglass powders and blushes .
Clinique blushes to me are in the top. Love the Pansy Pop shade shown. Works for girls that are cool tone. I cannot believe you don't own a tarte powder blush. I think it is a great formula.
I always wear the Dior blush over whatever other blush, cream or powder, I wear and it gives a very nice pop of colour on my cheeks. If it’s a cream blush I wear under it, it actually sets it too. I just love it 😊
Buxom absolutely killed the formula on the wonderlust blushes. My all time favorite powder blush formula and my personal favorite shade Seychelles (I own all the colors lol). Thanks for being a channel of relaxation for me as I go through my medical residency training. More days than not I’m stressed out of mind but your videos provide me such relief. Sending so much love!
Amanda, stop! I have been searching for days for swatches of Hourglass Blushes, and then trying to decide what color to choose. It was between Sublime Flush and Mood Exposure and then I click on your video and BAM! So thank you for deciding for me! 😘
I absolutely adore the Hourglass blushes especially Mood Exposure ❤. It’s so nice to see Clinique’s cheek pops mentioned! I love that formula as well and agree they are definitely underrated!!
Wearing Mood Exposure today, it’s the only blush that seems to blend seamlessly on my pale rosacea skin. And I love the luminosity that it gives. I also have MAC Harmony, which is my go-to when I wear cool-toned colorful looks. It goes with anything! I just ordered Gingerly.
I love Mood Exposure as a blush but I'd also recommend it as a one shadow look eyeshadow! I use it all over the lid, blended into the crease and along the lower lash line and it looks so pretty.
I have three of the emcosmetics blushes and i love venetian rose the most!! I have more of a light-medium warm undertoned skin and it brings so much romance to my makeup look 🥰 but it also does have some of that shimmer you probably dont like which might be the reason why you aren’t in love with it. Its not cheap either! But it lasts sooooooo long 😭
This seems to be the year of blush for me. Amanda would you PLEASE put the shades you show next to the brands? It would really help! Prices would help as well. Thanks. I try to use your information.
Ohhh as someone with a fair complexion who still can’t figure out what blushes would suit me, this was such a great video! I am itching to try mood exposure now, will definitely check out the mini size. I am so pleased to hear that you love Benefit Dallas too, it was the first “high end” makeup product I bought, at 14 years old on vacation in Paris with my own money in the huge Sephora there. I still love it and my heart sank when I realized it had been discontinued with no clear shade replacement! Are there by any chance any similar colors to it you have come across or have your eye on? If so would love to hear, or even a video on current replacements for beloved discontinued products would be so cool too! Lots of love from Madrid
My favorite blushes are from Alamar cosmetics 😊 So smooth and such a beautiful glow. I really want to get the BlendBunny blush palettes, the colors look fantastic. Indie brands are where it’s at!
Love Dior blush. Can you try more colors? My skin is a bit ruddy, warm. I don't have rosacea, but skin is darkened by over exposure to the sun. I will spend more money on blush than mascara or bronzer.
When is the K beauty video comming? I'm so excited to buy new stuff. I've tried some of your recommendations and they were sooooo nice so I'm very curious to see what you bought this time! 😊
Just wanted to mention here that this video was nice to watch, yes, but so useful. When I think about a blush I'd like to try, I come back here as a reference material. I can see if it is really different, if I "need" it or if it is close to those in my drawers. (MUBM creamy peach and Hourglass Mood exposure seem like a perfect pair for me). Thank you again for your work : )
Do let us know about the new Dior shades! I have the hardest time messing up my Florasis embossing; it's SOOOO gorgeous. I've been considering that palette of theirs.
I love your declutters and the time you take to describe the textures! Could I ask: what would be the best way to apply the Clinique Cheeks pops? I have one in Black Honey (😉) but I’m not sure I’m getting enough payoff with my brush (it may be too big). As I’m mid-toned skin, I love the colour! (I also have to try your terracotta recommendations. I find it’s such a perfect colour for summer!)
I have several of the Clinique Cheek Pops and I’ve found the best way to apply them is with a denser brush! I prefer a smaller angled brush for mine, but because the powder is a hard gel texture, you’ll need a harder brush to pick up more color!
@@makeupminx6103 beautiful! I have a dense angled brush I havent used for a while and totally forgot about! I’m totally going to try with that one, thank you!!
Amanda!! Would love to see a video on the new Dior blushes!! Re: TooFaced Cloud blushes - I have Golden Hour upland it’s surprisingly a long wearing blush!! I was not expecting it to perform so well but I’m so happy about it because it surpasses the performance of many of my other blushes without a cream blush underneath!
Ugh I decluttered my TF blush in explicit flush maybe I should try sun drunk? Super helpful video. The terracotta by persona is a great bronzer/blush for me!!
Please give the EM Cosmetics powder blushes another chance. I own 3 of them in Magic Hour, Cherub(LE), & Baroque. They are in the top of my blush rotation so please give them another go maybe in a color other than Venetian Rose.
Amanda, the timing on this was perfect ahah (And I also hate shimmery blushes lol) Btw have you ever tried the matt Catrice blushes? I'm curious about the shade "Peach Heaven". Edit: Also, have you ever tried the Kiko blushes?
Oh also, didn’t expect to see Florasis! I soooo rarely see them anywhere. Could I ask: how do you think the face palette would look on a medium skin colour?
Ok what am i doing wrong then? I have mood exposure and...1 other one from hourglass and i feel like i only get glitter from it. No pigment at all, just glitter. Help!
Swirl your blush over the entire pan to make sure you get enough of the pigmented powder. Because it’s swirled sometimes there’s more of the finishing powder rather than the pigmented powder on top and you have to run your finger over it to get to the pigmented powder and then the brush over it to get it all. I’ve had to do that for a few of them which wastes a bit of product, but there’s so much in the pan it doesn’t really matter. Good luck. Those are my favorite powder blushes for sure.
I use a Real Techniques Instapop cheek brush that’s like angled, and I swirl it in the pan and then like stamp it on. I find that works better than rubbing it on.
It seems in the last few years people are going wild with blush (me included) like it used to be lipsticks. All of a sudden everyone has a ton of blush. lol

I just decluttered like 75% of my blushes and I am so much happier with my collection now!
Which one did you keep ?
I love how you give mini reviews during the declutter
I’m an hourglass blush STAN. They are the best Ive found. And the travel size is worth it, I use mine all them time, and not even close to finished it up. Ps. I have it in luminous flush, I highly recommend 😊
Have to agree I wear luminous flush daily ❤
Hourglass came out with a new pallet it released yesterday one is blushes and highlight and the other is bronzer and finishing powders they look really pretty. I love hourglass powders and blushes .
I have tons of blushes and I agree. Hourglass is the best powder blush. It always looks great on the skin.
I have a blush palette from them that I keep saying to myself "I love this, it was so expensive, bury me with my hourglass blush palette!"
Everyone raves about Hourglass blush and palettes but I can't try them because they won't show up on my skin. It's kind of disappointing :/
Clinique blushes to me are in the top. Love the Pansy Pop shade shown. Works for girls that are cool tone. I cannot believe you don't own a tarte powder blush. I think it is a great formula.
So happy to see someone gift Clinique pop blushes the love you just don’t see them on RUclips watch anymore. I love them.
I always wear the Dior blush over whatever other blush, cream or powder, I wear and it gives a very nice pop of colour on my cheeks. If it’s a cream blush I wear under it, it actually sets it too. I just love it 😊
Would love your take on the Laura Mercier blushes
Declutters are my fave and blush swatches are my fave, so this is JUST what i need ❤❤❤
Buxom absolutely killed the formula on the wonderlust blushes. My all time favorite powder blush formula and my personal favorite shade Seychelles (I own all the colors lol). Thanks for being a channel of relaxation for me as I go through my medical residency training. More days than not I’m stressed out of mind but your videos provide me such relief. Sending so much love!
I tried sooo many blushes and my fav formula is Suqqu melting blush, Hourglass and Dior backstage. Cream ones westman atelier and victoria beckham.
Amanda, stop! I have been searching for days for swatches of Hourglass Blushes, and then trying to decide what color to choose. It was between Sublime Flush and Mood Exposure and then I click on your video and BAM!
So thank you for deciding for me! 😘
I absolutely adore the Hourglass blushes especially Mood Exposure ❤. It’s so nice to see Clinique’s cheek pops mentioned! I love that formula as well and agree they are definitely underrated!!
i'm still baffled that benefit didn't relaunch the dallas blush :( they need to bring it back!
Nude Pop is magical. I'm pale with an olive undertone, and it gives me a beautiful rosy tint
I think "relief" palette may refer to the raised design ... Similar to a relief sculpture.
I love your declutters.
I also really like it when you insert a quick demo on the face
Wearing Mood Exposure today, it’s the only blush that seems to blend seamlessly on my pale rosacea skin. And I love the luminosity that it gives.
I also have MAC Harmony, which is my go-to when I wear cool-toned colorful looks. It goes with anything! I just ordered Gingerly.
I’m also currently loving the Essence blush in Goldy Cassis and Pretty Peach.
Hourglass Mood Exposure is my all time favorite, with Luminous Flush a close second…many days I use both! And the minis last forever.
The Clinique Black Honey blush is it for me! Even better than the lip balm. Thanks for the reminder Amanda!
I love Mood Exposure as a blush but I'd also recommend it as a one shadow look eyeshadow! I use it all over the lid, blended into the crease and along the lower lash line and it looks so pretty.
Sephora carries the clinique blush in the shade black honey. I wanna try it and also the cola pop shade! Honestly I wanna try all the shades! 😅
I have both and they are amazing. I think they can fit all skin tones
I have three of the emcosmetics blushes and i love venetian rose the most!! I have more of a light-medium warm undertoned skin and it brings so much romance to my makeup look 🥰 but it also does have some of that shimmer you probably dont like which might be the reason why you aren’t in love with it.
Its not cheap either! But it lasts sooooooo long 😭
Same in love. But yeah the shimmer is very fine tho but still noticeable.
Thanks for taking the time to add time stamps, it's much appreciated :)
This seems to be the year of blush for me. Amanda would you PLEASE put the shades you show next to the brands? It would really help! Prices would help as well. Thanks. I try to use your information.
I think my biggest category of makeup is blushes. I appreciate you swatching them.
Clinique is one of my favorites. I have three holiday pallets and six singles. Love them

I think you should try some of the new Dior blush shades, for sure. When I heard Rosewood was a color, I thought of you!
Love Dior blush. Can you try more colors? My skin is a bit ruddy, warm. I don't have rosacea, but skin is darkened by over exposure to the sun. I will spend more money on blush than mascara or bronzer.
I’m not even into makeup like that but I watched this whole video because I found it so relaxing.
I love these videos from you! So much more helpful then comparing a new product against itself.
When is the K beauty video comming? I'm so excited to buy new stuff. I've tried some of your recommendations and they were sooooo nice so I'm very curious to see what you bought this time! 😊
I also use the Dior blush over my other blushes and I really enjoy using it that way
Yes very interested in the new shades! I'd take some glue and just glue the pan right back in 🥰
*YES* , and THANK YOU ☺️🥰😀🥰
Yayyyyy so many gorgeous blushes! Thanks for taking us along! 🥰
there´s actually a black honey shade in the clinique cheek pop :D vote down below for Amanda to try it
Thank you for sharing your blush declutter.

I’ve been wondering about the florasis! Good to know they’re Amanda approved
Coming to this late - but I SO appreciate the careful reviews and time stamps. THANK YOU
I have the original shades from Dior and I love them 😊 I really would like to see video with your opinion on the new shades ❤
Love all your blush videos!!
I'm gonna grab the florasis palette per your recommendation. Tysm
Thank you for switching everything in the palettes you have! It’s so convenient. I may have to get that Florasis relief palette!
Do let us know about the new Dior shades! I have the hardest time messing up my Florasis embossing; it's SOOOO gorgeous. I've been considering that palette of theirs.
I would love a comparison between the tom ford and the too faced since the tom ford are my favorite blushes but $90 dollars is too much!!!!!!!
I have been waiting for this...I LOVE BLUSHES😍

I love it when you declutter really helps me
I’m down for the TF/TF blush battle!
I didn't realize this is a declutter video from the title until I read the community post 😁
Ugh I decluttered my TF blush in explicit flush maybe I should try sun drunk? Super helpful video. The terracotta by persona is a great bronzer/blush for me!!
I thought the too faced one was so pretty and then you said it’s boring and I was like “😱” 😅
Please give the EM Cosmetics powder blushes another chance. I own 3 of them in Magic Hour, Cherub(LE), & Baroque. They are in the top of my blush rotation so please give them another go maybe in a color other than Venetian Rose.
The Clinique blushes go on sale for $20 frequently
Amanda, the timing on this was perfect ahah
(And I also hate shimmery blushes lol)
Btw have you ever tried the matt Catrice blushes? I'm curious about the shade "Peach Heaven".
Edit: Also, have you ever tried the Kiko blushes?
yes yes try out the other shades of the dior!!!
i’ve been waiting for this one😍
Oh also, didn’t expect to see Florasis! I soooo rarely see them anywhere. Could I ask: how do you think the face palette would look on a medium skin colour?
I saw Karen Harris do a video on them, she has tan skin though
Please do K beauty things!!! 🙏🙏
22:50 Well People. the only Leaping Bunny certified item among your products
Do you think this sade of hourglass is good for fair light warm toned skin?And for summer?
Hourglass or Armani powder blush?
Do the Essence blushes resemble the hourglass blushes?
What's the name of the shade of the Essence Pure Nude Blush you kept?
Wild Fig Well People looks just like Physicians Formula Butter Glow in Natural Glow baked powder!
do you have a dallas dupe? or Gold Rush dupe?
Ok what am i doing wrong then? I have mood exposure and...1 other one from hourglass and i feel like i only get glitter from it. No pigment at all, just glitter. Help!

I use a Real Techniques Instapop cheek brush that’s like angled, and I swirl it in the pan and then like stamp it on. I find that works better than rubbing it on.
Swirl it in the pan and swirl it also on your cheek. Believe me. I also didn’t understand the love for the hourglass. Now I thankfully do.
Maybe it’s hard panned?
Ooh yes, TF vs TF comparison!
Has anyone tried Juvias blush duo. I'm trying to convince myself I don't need them.
It seems in the last few years people are going wild with blush (me included) like it used to be lipsticks. All of a sudden everyone has a ton of blush. lol
❤❤❤
NO CHINA CCP Brand !
