Hello! This week I wanted to share some affordable blushes that are definitely worth your money! Looking through my makeup, I don’t own a single high end blush. Blushes are something that I never splurge on, there are so many great affordable options out there, that work well enough for me. What I look for in a blush is a natural shade, and something that blends and wears well. These five are my most loved, and I know you will love them too!

The Blushes
The first blushes are from Burt’s Bees. Burt’s Bees makeup is amazing because it’s 100% natural. These mineral blushes have a sheen that gives you a beautiful glow! They look very natural on the skin, and last all day. Plus how pretty is the product itself? They are also cruelty free. These blushes cost $10, I own the shades Toasted Cinnamon and Bare Peach. They have one more shade called “Shy Pink”. These can be hard to find, I bought mine on the Burt’s Bees website.
Next are the Flower Beauty Flower Pots Powder Blush. First of all, the beautiful flower pattern really caught my eye! I own the shade “Sweet Pea”, which is a pretty mauve color. It gives you a lovely flush of color, and lasts nicely. These blushes cost $9.99, and they have three other shades.
Then we have the L.A. Girl Just Blushing Powder. I had heard a lot of good things about these blushes, so I finally picked one up. L.A. girl is an affordable makeup brand you can find at Ulta. This blush is a new favorite, I have the shade “Just Playful”. This is a great blush because it looks so natural! These will cost you $6.99, and come in 10 shades total online.
The e.l.f studio blushes are super affordable at only $3, AND they are good quality! The shade I own is called “Mellow Mauve”, the name describes it perfectly. These blushes have a subtle sheen to them, which gives your cheeks a nice glow. E.l.f is also a cruelty free and vegan brand. This was the only blush I wore for a long time, you can probably tell from the picture. They have two other shades, as well.
Lastly, Milani rose powder blushes are another great affordable option. They have such a pretty satin finish, and give a natural color. I own the shade Romantic Rose, which is a warm toned pink. You will love keeping this on your vanity, because of the gorgeous design! You can buy this blush for under $7, this has been my go-to blush lately!
Swatches
Below I will insert swatches of all of the blushes. Keep in mind I added a lot of product so you can see the color, when you apply with a brush it will be more subtle. Let me know if you have any suggestions of some I should try!
