Your skin tone/coloring: Light neutral/green eyes, dark hair
Favorite bronzer? I rarely use bronzer and only own one: Laura Mercier Matte Radiance Baked Powder (I think Bronze-01 is the shade name.)
Favorite cream blush? I’ve never used cream blush!
Favorite lip tint? I don’t know if this counts as a lip tint, but I’ll say Clinique Black Honey because one swipe puts a light, glossy tint on my lips.
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair neutral
Favorite bronzer? UD Sunkissed
Favorite cream blush? Glossier Cloud Paint in Puff
Favorite lip tint? Essence Kiss The Mermaid color changing balm. Great color and inexpensive to boot!
Skin tone: light with a neutral undertone (Fenty 150 in the winter, 190 in the summer, although they’re slightly too peachy for me)
Favorite bronzer: Too Faced Sweethearts Bronzer. It has the perfect amount of subtle sheen and is a great color!
Favorite cream blush: ColourPop Drop of a Hat. It’s a gorgeous coppery peach with shimmer and is so flattering.
I don’t have a favorite lip tint — I go for a full opaque lip! If I wear something sheer it’s probably the NYX Butter Gloss in Angel Food Cake which is a nice neutral pink 🙂
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair with neutral undertones and freckles, warm medium brown hair and blue/green/gray eyes.
Favorite bronzer? Physician’s Formula Butter Bronzer in Light Bronze and Becca Sunlit Bronzer in Bali Sands.
Favorite cream blush? Glossier Cloud paints and Colourpop Super Shock Cheeks.
Favorite lip tint? Fresh Sugar Lip balm in Rosé or any of the sheerer shades of the L’Oréal Colour Riche Shine Lipsticks.
Your skin tone/coloring: Very fair with neutral undertones; magenta/red hair; hazel/green eyes.
Favorite bronzer? Matte: Too Faced Milk Chocolate Soleil; Shimmer: Physician’s Formula Murumuru Butter Bronzer in Light Bronze; To use on the entire face: Wet n Wild Reserve Your Cabana (yes, it actually gives my vampire skin a hint of color).
Favorite cream blush? MUFE HD Blush in 410 (Coral)
Favorite lip tint? I don’t use lip tints/stains. I like tinted lip balms in summer. My favorites are Maybelline Baby Lips, especially the Electro series. I like e.l.f. Lip Kiss Balms, too.
Lt-med, red u/t. Not heavy into bronzer, but panned a repurchase of tf Snow Bunny. Fave bronzer coloration is the coppery or rosy shades. Cream blush: CP Aphrodisiac. It pulls red, while keeping the light neutral quality. Lip tint: better start thinking about them, as summer’s coming. Sufficiently stashed, no fave, plenty I don’t like, due to ingredients.
Your skin tone/coloring: Medium w/ olive undertones, MAC NC37, Lancome Teint Idole Foundation N360, deep brunette, blue-green eyes w/ gold flecks.
Favorite bronzer? UD Jawbone, because I can use it to contour over almost any foundation I’ve used, except Fenty 260 for some odd reason. I think that perhaps 260 has the wrong level of yellow or orange for my skin tone? It looks mask like, which it didn’t last September when I tried many a sample of 260 and 290? I don’t know what’s going on with either my skin or their formula 8-9 months later? Perplexed!
Favorite cream blush? Fenty Chili Mango! It looks gorgeously radiant and it’s so easy to apply.
Favorite lip tint? Hmm… probably my very new tube of UD 100 Degrees Vice Lipstick. It looks more like a juicy lip stain/tint than a lipstick on me. I love the effect on more casual days!
Skin tone: Very fair with cool undertones, MAC NW 5-10
Favorite bronzer: I don’t really have one as I haven’t found one that really suits me and that I love. I do use Benefit Hoola bronzer in light. It works, I just am not in love with it.
Favorite cream blush: Diorific Matte Fluid Lip and Cheek color in 007 Desire. I don’t have a lot of cream blushes so there are probably better formulas out there but I love the shade of this one. It is a matte blush which is okay but I do like a little shimmer or dimension to my blushes so I do mix a highlighter or add a blush topper.
Favorite lip tint: Back in the day I loved the Benetint in the rose color. I even liked the slight rose scent. As I aged my lip lines became canals for the tint to make a break for it. Now, I prefer a tint that has some substance to it so it doesn’t move. I am really loving all of the L’Oreal Colour Riche Shine lipsticks. They are very glossy but they leave a nice stain behind.
Skintone / coloring : light, MAC NC 15 – 20, med brown hair and eyes
Favorite Bronzer: Too Faced Bronzed & Poreless Matte is my favorite but it’s discontinued. Next best would be Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer or Chanel Bronzer Soleil Tan. I’m also really loving The Body Shop Honey Bronzer and NARS Laguna. Loreal Glam Bronzer is fantastic as is one by No.7 and Essence. Funny I have so many bronzers bc I never used to wear them!
Favorite Cream Blush : Probably MAC Brit Wit but I’m not the biggest fan of cream blushes
Favorite lip stain: I have one by Pixi that’s long discontinued
I love Clinique Black Honey and those Color Shine Lip Balms by Loreal. I love my Revlon lip butter in Pink Truffle and I have a Maybelline Baby Lips in Cocoa Crush I love as well but when I think of a lip tint I think of a lip stain ala Benetint… oh well
Your skin tone/coloring: Light medium, yellow undertones.
Favorite bronzer? Guerlain Terra Inca, LE from ages ago and even though the magnets in the packaging have come loose and drive me bonkers. Wet N Wild Ticket To Brazil is a good sub for me.
Favorite cream blush? Mehron Lip Cream in Petal Pink or Natural.
Favorite lip tint? Rimmel Colour Rush Balm Stains.
Your skin tone/colouring: Porcelain, with pink undertones
Favourite bronzer? I don’t use a bronzer
Favourite cream blush? Nope – no cream blushes either
Favorite lip tint? No – I don’t use lip tints either!
Your skin tone/coloring: NC15 w/some redness
Favorite bronzer? Either UD Beached bronzer in Bronzer or NARS Laguna.
Favorite cream blush? Do the Glossier Cloud Paints count as a cream? If so those, if not the Charlotte Tilbury Colour of Youth.
Favorite lip tint? Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment in a whole bunch of shades.
Skin coloring: pale with cool undertones.
Favourite lip tint: currently really enjoying the blackberry Nivea balm. I’ve also been using Tonymoly Magic Delight in Green Apple rubbed on with a pinkie.
Lip products are the only makeup I wear.
Your skin tone/coloring: Light, warm with olive undertones (NC15/MUFE Y227)
Favorite bronzer? TheBalm Balm Desert, because I can use it as both a blush and bronzer, and it works year round. Runners up are RMS Buriti Bronzer and Hourglass Diffused Bronze Light.
Favorite cream blush? Bite Beauty Multisticks (have quite a few colours) in warm weather, and RMS Lip2cheek in Spell. Recently tried to steer away from silicone cream blushes, and these formulas fit the bill.
Favorite lip tint? Lipstick Queen Frog Prince, but am eyeing this list for something less pricey, as I have blown through 4-5 of these, and they run out fast.
Your skin tone/coloring: light-medium
Favorite bronzer? can’t use it, looks muddy on me
Favorite cream blush? Bobbi Brown Desert Rose and Bare compact
Favorite lip tint? Tarte lip surgence
Your skin tone/coloring: Light/Medium Neutral with light brown eyes and brunette hair
Favorite bronzer? Marc Jacobs Tan-tastic, Bobbi Brown Stonestreet , and the Balm Oscar
Favorite cream blush? Nars- but all of my blush products are powder except two which are the NARS blushes.
Favorite lip tint? Just bought Bite Beauty Chai lipstick/gloss? Usually prefer Matte lipsticks
Your skin tone/coloring: fair-light, neutral to cool undertones, NW15-20
Favorite bronzer? I don’t use one very often, but when I do, is Cover FX in Sunkissed (I have both versions, the powder and the liquid one).
Favorite cream blush? W3LL People – Multi Use Cream Stick in Nude Rose.
Favorite lip tint? Bite Beauty Lush Lip Tint in Juice.
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair & warm NC 15, platinum blonde with green/gold/brown hazel eyes
Favorite bronzer? IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Bronzer: absorbs oil and shine, and blurs away the look of pores, without settling into lines and wrinkles- a great shade that’s not too red or orange too!
Favorite cream blush? Clé de Peau Beauté Cream Blush in Fig & Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cream Blush in Plum and Nectar- an underrated gem with excellent lasting power
Favorite lip tint? YSL Glossy Stain in Fuchsia Filtre
Your skin tone/coloring; Warm Olive Med Tan
Favorite bronzer: Bahama Mama Bronzer. Although I really can’t recall the last time I used bronzer at all.
Favorite cream blush: Don’t have one right now.
Favorite lip tint: Peri Pera or Aritaum tints.
Skin tone/coloring: fair with warm undertones, red hair, brown eyes
Favorite bronzer: Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer, it’s light enough not to be muddy and I know the smell is polarizing but I love it
Favorite cream blush: Tom Ford Paradiso, seriously one of the prettiest makeup products I own
Favorite lip tint: Clarins Instant Lip Comfort Oil, one of the best lip moisturizers on the market
Your skin tone/coloring: light to pale yellow/gold
Favorite bronzer? I don’t use bronzers as bronzer; the ones I have I use as eyeshadows, and my favorite of those is Fawn from ABH.
Favorite cream blush? Tough call, but Chili Mango from Fenty edges out a half-dozen others. A photo-finish favorite is Blondie from Bite Beauty.
Favorite lip tint? Bombshell from Concrete Minerals.
