Yves Saint Laurent Creme de Blush Swatches

I LOVE blush, any and all forms. Some individuals may not place that much importance on blush, but in my case, blush is EVERYTHING! I will and have spent a hefty sum of money to get that gorgeous flush of color.

I've decided to post color descriptions and swatches of my Yves Saint Laurent Creme de Blush collection.

Yves Saint Laurent Creme de Blushes have a cream to powder finish; they are neither greasy nor sticky. These blushes have a creamy mousse texture, which allows them to be applied smoothly and blend effortlessly onto the cheeks. A little goes a long way with the product, but if you're like me, a little is never enough :P

Yves Saint Laurent Creme de Blushes come in 6 different colors (numbers).

Natural light

Velvety Peach, Powdery Rose, Silky Praline, Audacious Orange, Fuchsia Temptation and Rouge Passion

With Flash

1 Velvety Peach: A perfect for Spring/Summer peach coral.

2 Powdery Rose: A universally flattering warm medium pink.

3 Silky Praline: The description of this shade states it's a spiced rose beige, and I agree. It's a gorgeous tawny spiced rose color, that give the cheeks a lovely warmth.

4 Audacious Orange: A bright orange apricot color that just SCREAMS summer. This color is limited edition (BOO to YSL!!!) .

5 Fuchsia Temptation: A cool tones vibrant bubble gum pink.

6 Rouge Passion: An orange tomato red. This color my appear bold in the swatch but it sheers out to a lovely "just pinched" flush.

These little blush gems retail for $38, and are available at sephora.com, nordstrom.com (they have all 6 colors), saks.com ( all 6 colors are also available), neimanmarcus.com  ( all 6 colors are also available), bloomingdales.com, barneys.com, and bergdorfgoodman.com .
