Without further ado, here are my favourite blushes for the spring season! I chose colours that were bright yet natural, and go well with a variety of skin tones.
From L to R: Smashbox Love Me Blush in Idolize Me, Joe Fresh Powder Blush in Hydrangea, Lancôme Blush Subtil in Aplum, and Anna Sui Face Color Accent in Shade 700.

Here are my quick takes on each of the blushes individually:
Idolize Me: (Which you should never do!) This is a lovely light, coral pink that is the lightest blush I own. I adore the embossed "Love Me" and heart design on the front! This blush might pull a bit chalky on some people, depending on your skin, but it works well on my combination skin and doesn't fade after application.
Hydrangea: I picked this blush up on a whim last year while browsing the Joe Fresh cosmetics section at my local Loblaws. It's one of my favourite blushes of all time as it provides me with just the right amount of pink and peach mixed together. On my skin, it pulls slightly more peachy because of my yellow undertones.
Aplum: Just looking in the pan, I would never have expected this blush to turn out such a beautiful colour on my cheeks! It comes out a nice mix of rose and plum, and gives me the most natural, barely there flush that is appropriate for school or the office! This blush is also lightly scented in a way that reminds me of a slightly floral powder, but disappears upon application which is great.
Face Color Accent 700: This is my favourite blush of ALL time and sadly, it seems to have been discontinued! I can't find it in Canadian stores anymore and I will continue to scour online or perhaps ask people in Hong Kong if they still have it there. This blush has some slight shimmer and comes across as a peach coral colour with a hint of bronzer. Despite all this, it still looks good on my NC 25 skin with yellow undertones and I save it for special occasions only!
