|HAUL| La Femme Blushes ::First Impressions && Swatches::

Hey Guys!
 I finally took the plunge and bought some La Femme Blushes! Now, if you haven't heard of them, they're insanely pigmented blushes that only cost $2.50 for the pan form [$3.00 in a container]! Also, the great thing is that shipping is only $2.99, so they really are a steal! After seeing my friend Ro's pictures on Instagram of the ones she'd ordered, I wanted some too! I only got 7, but they have 30+ colors you can choose from. 


The shipping was actually pretty quick. I placed my order last Friday and they showed up today [Thursday], so less than a week. That's great, in my opinion. You can order La Femme Blushes from http://MakeupMania.com.


Now on to Pictures && Swatches!!





In case you can't read the writing, the seven blushes I picked are:

  • Sienna
  • Coral
  • Grape - Glitter
  • Peach
  • Lilac Champagne - Glitter
  • Rose
  • Purple Passion - Glitter

THOUGHTS:
My favorite, by far, may be a surprise to you.... It's Sienna!! I know it looks dull in the pan, but as you can see by the swatch, its such a neutral pinky brown. I love it!! Lilac Champagne & Rose are somewhat similar but Rose definitely has more of a yellow undertone. Grape and Purple Passion are nothing alike, something I was worried about when I ordered. Purple Passion is full of sparkle, though, so if that's not your thing, you may want to stick to Grape [less sparkle]. Grape also leans more pink than purple to me. Peach isn't that bright in person, my flash brightened it up a bit, it'd be great for a neutral blush. Coral is RED! Haha I don't see much orange undertones, it's most definitely a soft red.


I will be purchasing more La Femme Blushes! I can see why they have such a cult following!
Have you tried any of these blushes, Which ones would you suggest I get next? Thanks so much for reading!!!!

Omg! I am so glad that someone I know and trust has these and can share their experience. I was so willing to drop 50$ and get all the blushes I wanted. But the horrible reviews on MakeupMania's customer service and SHIPPING got the best of me. I found another website to purchase from, but ofcourse the shipping was not $2.99 dirt cheap! The pigmentation looks amazing (like that of Coastalscents hot pots), so I am fired up again about it. Just a note, I own 3 Z-palettes (large) and they are AWESOME for magnetic pans like that. I suggest you get yourself one if you plan to collect more. I cant tell you how many times in my act of packing for college and breaks and I've DROPPED those things. *argh!* not a scratch, dent, or nick on any of my eyeshadows let alone breaking. So they are worth it! I purchased mine for cheaper on Ebay for 19$ But you can purchase other places & from their website. Great review sis!
These are really cool I've been looking for a good purple colored blush I'll have to check them out! Thanks for the comment box suggestion I'm going to look into it :)
So glad your shipping process was great because mine with this company was horrible. This was right around the time that these became super popular so I'm sure they were overloaded with orders. I LOVE the blushes but I probably wont order from this company again because of my experience.

You got some great colors, we have several of the same ones!
Sienna is one of my favorites as well!
