We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities!

I was using my Hourglass Ghost Quad for convenience because I was going back and forth between two houses (my mom’s and my own). And I just realized it’s four years old, lol.

Same issue for me since I purchased a lot of blushes this year but most were released in prior years when I wasn’t purchasing. I believe that there are a couple from this year. This was the year of the blush for me so there are a lot!
Chanel Fantaisie de Chanel and Reflex
Fenty in Ri Ri, Strawberry Drip and Dacquiri Dip
Westman Atelier Baby Cheeks in shades Chouchette and Dou Dou
Kaer Weiss in shades Reverence and Abundance
Gucci in Radiant Pink, Rosy Beige and Soft Red
Rare Beauty in Virtue and Grateful although I love them all
Lethal Cosmetics in Blossom. I want Plan 9 really badly but can’t find it in secondary marketing and of course, it sold out immediately. It has been gone for quite a while. I contacted Lethal Cosmetics to see if they were going to restock and they aren’t. I did buy Kevin Aucoin Rosecliff which is a dupe but not exactly alike!

Released in 2022 and 2023, but my most used blushes of 2023 are the two blushes in the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit Unlocked Lustrous (a.k.a. the Elephant palette) and the Suqqu Pure color blushes in 139 Kafuu and 132 Momijigari. I bought a lot of great blushes this year so this was a tough race!

The Hourglass “Ghost” palette (such a wide assortment of shades in one little quad!), Nabla “Truth,” and Teez Cosmetics in “Mauve” (it’s not mauve at all; it’s a burnt red).

That last one was a huge surprise to me—I got it in a beauty box assuming I’d pass it along to family or friends (I bought the box for a different product so the rest was superfluous), but I gave it a shot and it provided the most gorgeous natural sunburnt flush. I prefer a more rosy red for cold-weather looks right now, but all fall long I looked like I’m the sort of person who actually ventures outside. Thanks, blush!

Kaleidos Dreamwalk has probably been my most frequently-used blush this year. It goes so well with my skintone, and with all the cool-toned looks I’ve been doing. RdF Lust is also a contender for a favorite shade altogether.
