#NYX Powder Blush Swatches

Before I purchase any cosmetic product, no matter the item or brand, the first thing I do is Google. I search for reviews on the product. How it wears in different climates, on different skin types, and most particularly on skin tones similar to mine.

I will be doing a series of NYX swatches, from foundation, jumbo pencils, eye shadows, blushes etc. Yes it's already been done but I think that sometimes it is a bit more challenging than some to find correct swatches on dark skinned lovlies.  Since blushes are an item I know not a lot of people will take chances with, I will start there.  I have put together all my NYX Powder Blushes (its the full set minus 1 or 2)

These are very pigmented as you will see in the photos. They were swatched once with my finger on bare skin. They also blend out pretty nicely (if the colours scare you) and will last all day without any touch up needed.

How to use: Colour Correcting Concealers

Quite a few persons have been writing and asking me about the coloured NYX concealers (green, yellow, orange and lavender) listed on the website www.significantdetails.com, and also in the store. Here's a short guide on how and why they are used.
