Pink Purchases.
I FINALLY went and bought NARS Orgasm blush. It was one of those impulse moments after work last night, I needed a little cheer up treat and I’ve wanted this blush for so long.
Needless to say, it really lives up to the hype! Such a gorgeous peachy pink colour with a gold shimmer. It’s similar to my favourite MAC Springsheen blush, but more pink than coral.
After my make up collection post, you’re probably thinking I really don’t need anymore makeup. I’m really trying to cut down, especially on cheap makeup (I know that makes no sense) but instead of buying a heap of Barry M etc. makeup that I’ll only wear sometimes & have only bought it because it’s cheap, I’m going to spend my money wisely on things that I’ve wanted for ages and will actually use!
I also bought a MAC lipstick. Naughty, I know. Whenever I go to the MAC counter, I always pick up the lipsticks and blushes that I like and look at the shade on the bottom. I have noticed that I ALWAYS pick up the ones I already have. Seriously, I pick up Speed Dial about ten times! I’m drawn to the ones I love, which I guess is a good sign. Although, I think I need to branch out a bit with my shades.
As you can see, Pink Nouveau is a lovely bright magenta pink. I’m loving bright lipsticks at the moment (in case you haven’t noticed!). I’m not actually wearing the lipstick in the picture, it’s Topshops lipgloss in Ablaze. I didn’t want to take the attention off the Orgasm blush.
I was going to ask Graeme to get me Orgasm at the airport or whatever, but I knew he would feel a bit uncomfortable asking for it at the counter!

The blush really suits you! I have that one too, but it’s not quite right on me.

Pink Nouveau is hot! And I’m sure your fella will be gratfeul that you bought Orgasm yourself and spared him having to do it

I just got Orgasm too, haven’t tried it yet but I’m excited to!

LOVE the colour of Orgasm! I always avoid blushes with gold undertones because I think I could only ever wear them of a night, but it looks lovely on in the day!
