Product Rave | Natural Collection Blushes

Today's post is going to be on some amazing affordable blushes which are great if you're on a budget or are just starting out with make-up and don't want to spend a lot of money. I'm definitely not the first person to rave about these blushes they have been very popular on blogs recently.
Obviously the packaging isn't going to be the best, it is simple plastic packaging but for me this doesn't bother me. I like that you can see the product which can help with finding the shade you want.
I have two shades, Peach Melba and Rosey Glow. Both shades look a little similar in the pan but when they're swatched they look pretty different.
I don't find these blushes to be overly powdery or chalky. They're really well pigmented and last really well on the cheeks. Even after being on the go all day I can still see the colour on my cheeks which isn't the case even with some of the more expensive blushes I've tried. 
L-R 'Peach Melba' 'Rosey Glow'
Peach Melba is definitely my favourite out of the two, I love how it looks on my skin and it works really well with NARS Laguna Bronzer. I would definitely recommend these blushes because they're amazing quality for the price.

Natural Collection Blushed Cheeks retail for £1.99 or 3 for £5 and are available here.

Have you tried these? What is your favourite drugstore blush brand?

  1. What I love about the UK is that there are always these "buy 3 for 5 Pounds" or "buy 3 get the the last one for free"-things! :) You can't find that in Germany unfortunately. :/

    I've heard a lot about their Lipsticks and how beneficial they are but it's the first time I read about Natural Collection Blushes to be honest. I really like "Rosey Glow" - it looks lovely!

    I wish there would be a "Boots" in Germany. :/

  2. I love Boots Natural Collection - it's such a purse-friendly way of having a beauty hit. I own a lot of Natural Collection products and you're right about these blushes. I haven't collected these two shades though. Off to the shops I go... :)

  5. I've never tried these blushers as I was always worried they'd look too cheap. Will look into it now, especially as it's three for £5. Bargain. :)

  7. I really recommend Sweet Cheeks too if you don't have it in your collection. It gives me such a natural look, as if I'm blushing! :)
