BareMinerals’ Courage blush

BareMinerals’ Courage blush

Posted on Sunday, at

This was the blush color for the Perfect 10 kit; but I'm not adept at using blushes. However, this color does look good on my blue eyes - so I just use it there. It's a little too warm to make a good lip color for me, though.

Released to commemorate 10 years broadcasting with / on QVC, this kit was somewhat less than loved. Its eye, cheek, and lip colors were created and named by customers, which was nice; but for most people, this kit didn’t have anything of great excitement. Since I was new to BE at...
