For the Love of Pink
NARS Blush – “Angelika”
This beautiful shimmery pink blush has just the right amount of color for that pop of pink for the cheeks. NARS has the best blushes hands down- they’re soft, natural looking, with just the right amount of shimmer. ”Angelika” is a great color for medium to dark skin, but works well on fair skin if you apply lightly.

Illamasqua Eyeshadow – Angst
Illamasqua doesn’t disappoint often and their Angst shadow delivers with a classic and calm pink that serves as a cornerstone of a Valentine’s-inspired look.

NYX Cream Blush – Hot Pink
This cream blush is so soft and easy to blend- it doesn’t look oily or cakey at all! The best way to apply these blushes is using your ring finger to tap on the apples of the cheeks, then keep patting out to blend- if you applied too much, take a blending sponge and dab until you take off some of the color. It adds such a dewy, youthful look to the cheeks!
Price: $6.49

I am in love with NYX’s Mega Shine lip glosses — especially for the price. And Tea Rose remains as one of the Makeup Geek Store’s top sellers in the gloss family. I don’t think you will be disappointed.

I adore revlon’s pink pout I just bought it its perfection!
beautiful!! great review… get well marlena!!!
I agree with you, I very much love the review, especially with all the pinkness hehe.
My favorite product would be the “Makeup Forever Star Powder” I think all of their star powders are really nice and enhance the shadows you put…or just worn alone, also creates a beautiful look.
Dee.
I have received my tea rose nyx gloss… and I have to say I have been really disapointed by it… it taste funny… and feel a little sandy… on my lips and usually I use the Aldo lipgloss… and it’s amazing…little sad from my order
… but its good for a lipgloss for the office… always around if someone cute come in..
I don’t think ur suppose to eat lipgloss so it shouldn’t matter if it taste good or bad …. Just saying.
Yeah but why would you want something that doesnt taste very nice on your lips? It does have a bit of a cherry flavour to it that some people don’t necessarily like.
i don’t eat my lipgloss… but I put some on every now and then during the day…and every time my co-worker hear me say… erkk esti que ca goute pas bon… well this mean it does taste awful .. just saying…
Hi, Marlena! which color of nyx cream blush would suit for medium skintone? Thanks!
Hello Marlena,
Hello, Marlena,
I first want to say how happy and blessed I feel to have found your website. You inspire me to want to change not only with make up but with my weight issue. Thank you! I have a question as you might have figured out I am plus size and have a round face and big cheeks (LOL) that make my small eyes look smaller in my opinion. How can i make my eyes appear bigger and what tricks can I use to slim my face a little. This info will really help me out and maybe help my self esteem a litle THANKS!
God, I would kill just to get my paws on some Revlon make up. Stupid, makeup-challenged Sweden!
I always wanted to try pink shadow but I don’t get it. It looks really weird on me. Do you have a tutorial using pink shadow? Or any tips to making it look nice instead of making my eyes look red. I see other girls wearing pink shadow and it looks beautiful and I feel left out:( Thanks Marlena!
Oh and I wanted to tell you that Urban Outfitters is selling this NYX palette called “The All I’ve Ever Wanted Box” for $28. It has a ton of shadows and a bunch of blushes and a highlighter and bronzer….it’s kinda awesome. Just wanted to share the news….I was so excited to see it.
Love it thank you….I also love the Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lip Gloss in Bright Hot Pink
Hope you are feeling better Marlena we miss you xoxo

I want, i want, i want!!!
All of it. Im such a sucker for pink
Thank you so much for this article! I love pink makeup
I got the Revlon Pink Pout lipstick and the NYX blush today, and I love them! I also have the Scratch eyeshadow and it’s great.
Pink Pout is wonderful! I’ve owned it for a while now and can’t get enough of it! If you’re looking for other pink lipsticks by revlon, you should try twinkled pink! It’s nude but still very pink, and it’s a pearl so you get a little bit of sparkle!
My pink pout comes out as NEON pink! WHy???????
Great job! I love your website, check out mine – http://www.annahbelle.com … There’s lots of pink on it
xx
Girl About Town is my favourite pink lipstick!
i want to become amazing. oh wait. i am. sorryy
Wow Its wonderfull!Love It.
Marlena,
Is there a way to tone this down, it doesn’t look good on my fair skin. I know you said that the MAC Blankety lipstick is a good one.. would it work for me??
My lips are naturally tinted a bright pinkish-red. When I put red or pink gloss on them, I look like someone hit me in the mouth
Thanks again!
i so love the nyx megashine lipglosses…have them in beige paired with mac angel and french kiss paired with rimmel’s airy fairy……..
Nicole, before applying any lipstick its important that you use a concealer to mute out the colour in your lips. Something with a yellow base will help. after this your lipstick should come out a colour closer to the one in the tube! good luck!
