New Jordana Powder Blush Shades for Fall 2013

Hey guys!!

I’m sorry it took me so long to do this blog post. I mentioned doing this post several weeks ago in my last post but I hadn’t gotten around to doing it yet so I apologize for that. Today’s post is going to be over Jordana’s new blush shades that were just released. I’m assuming these 12 brand new shades are part of Jordana’s Fall 2013 collection. Jordana is on a roll this Fall, releasing these new blushes along with eyeliners, shadow pencils, mascaras and balm stains. They are really on their A-game because these new products are awesome and I love Jordana’s products as a whole. I think they are a fantastic brand with high quality items at very affordable prices. Everything I’ve ever purchased from this brand has been a hit for me and the blushes are my favorite item. I own 12 of them including 4 of the new shades which I will be showing you today. All of their powder blushes retail for $2.49 and you should be able to find them at Walgreens or online (my favorite online store to buy them is Beautyjoint.com). All stores carry different items so I would suggest checking your local drugstore or any type of store that carries drugstore makeup. I personally have a difficult time finding them at my local Walgreens so I usually purchase them from Beautyjoint.com. Beautyjoint has cheap shipping rates and sometimes they offer coupons so that’s a plus.

The 12 new shades are Cinnamon Spice, Tender Tearose, Hot Raspberry, Rich Sorbet, Peach Blossom, Sweet Honey, Apple Cheeks, Terracotta Treasure, Warm Cider, Pink Beauty, Passion Rose and Coral Radiance. These colors range from bright and vivid, muted and natural, to deep. They are all equally gorgeous and there is something for everyone. This blush line has a ton of variety and they are so cheap that you could experiment with a color you’ve never tried before and it wouldn’t be a big loss to you if you didn’t like the blush because it’s not a big investment. But I believe it is definitely an investment worth making because these blushes are very pigmented and they pack a punch, especially those bright shades which I own a few of. Don’t be intimidated by these bright colors because they are wearable and they can add a nice pop of color to your look. There were a lot of new shades I wanted to try but I only purchased 4, which are Coral Radiance, Passion Rose, Peach Blossom, and Pink Beauty. I still intend to purchase a few more later on.

As soon as I saw these new colors on Jordana’s website, I immediately knew that I had to have Coral Radiance. It is a bright coral and it is perfect for the summer (which is unfortunately over :/). Passion Rose is a medium rosy pink color that is good for giving you that flushed look. Peach Blossom is a medium peachy pink color and it reminds me of a toned down version of Coral Radiance. Lastly, I have Pink Beauty which is a bright hot pink. I can’t speak for the other colors because I don’t own them yet, but they look pretty from the swatches I’ve seen online.

I will say that these blushes can get a bit powdery when you’re trying to apply them, but as long as you tap the excess off your brush you will be fine. I’ve worn these blushes to work for at least 5 hours (my shifts vary because I work part time) and they held up well on my oily skin. I own a lot of blushes and these have got to be one of the best drugstore blushes out there in my opinion. So if you see these tiny gems in a small hidden display like the one in my Walgreens, I urge you to try at least one. You will not be disappointed and I bet you will probably go back for more.

I have two upcoming blogs planned out for you guys. Next week I’m planning to do a blog comparing the real Urban Decay Naked palette with the fake piece of crap they are trying to sell on eBay and then after that I plan to do a blog about 2013 fall makeup trend essentials. I might break it up into a few posts because I want to go over the perfect fall palettes/eyeshadows, lipsticks, and nail polishes following this fall’s trends. So that is something exciting to look forward to! ;)
