Oh and, not a loose mineral one please :) I tried one before and they go e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e!

it depends on how much you want to spend.
I have a gorgeous one, it's estee lauder and cos like £28 but it's amazing, and worth the money.
it's called 'peach nuance'

Sorry that this picture isn't great, camera phone = fail.
Everyone says pink and green shouldn't go together, but tbh i love it.
experimenting with eyeshadows:)

Pfft I wear pink and green all the time.Very pretty

I use Maybelline natural minerals blusher for everyday wear and Urban decay blusher for nice evening wear.Both stay on nicely,but I do use a primer before putting on any foundation/blush.

i havent tried the barry m pillar box red but i have tried the red lip laquer crayon which from what i can tell is a similar shade maybe slightly darker... and its gorgeous one of the few lippies i've found which i really like, i have classic peaches and cream/english rose skin so finding a red lippy which doesnt make me look washed out or jaundiced is nigh on impossible... they also do a rather nice shocking pink one which i also have and looks great they both pack quite a punch though so if you want something slightly more subtle the njust apply the lippy and blot it which leaves a nice stain... for future ference if ur qui8te fair then lipstick with blue tones to them can look very good something to do with cooler toned makeup suiting people with cool tones i their skin or something like that

Today I stopped by at MAC and picked up one of the new mineralise blushes from the "Too Fabulous" collection. When applied the purple does not show up. The blush is a light shimmery baby pink with lavender undertones :D
