9 Spring Favorites for Cheeks and Lips

I’ve been obsessed with Spring lately. All I can think about is Spring Colors for lips and cheeks, and even eyes. I’ve got 9 poppin’ shades that I’m crushin’ on to share with you.

Cruelty Free Spring Beauty Favorites for Lips and Cheeks

Spring Lip Lusts

5 Spring Lip Lusts

Illamasqua Flare, Too Faced Juicy Melons, Milani Flamingo Pose, Milani Rose Hip, Fresh Sugar Coral lipstick swatches
Illamasqua Lipstick in Flare – a bright orange matte
Every time Spring and Summer rolls around, I start reaching for orange lipsticks and glosses. They’re fun, and Flare is no exception. It’s a super bright orange.

Too Faced La Creme Lipstick in Juicy Melons – pink coral
Juicy Melons is a more demure pinky coral shade. It reminds me of bareMinerals the Natural High in lipstick form and without the gold shimmer.

Fresh Sugar Coral – sheer dark peach
Coral reads as a red coral on my lips.

Milani Flamingo Pose – neon coral creme(reminds me of MAC Fusion Pink)
I just love this color! I love how it’s nearly violet around the edges.

Milani Rose Hip – neon hot pink creme (brings to mind MAC Show Orchid)
It’s my favorite shade of pink. Seriously. Perfect to pair with a cat eye.

Spring Cheek Crushes

4 Spring Blush Crushes

Too Faced Sweethearts Blush Swatches
Too Faced Sweethearts Blush – pink, coral, peach individually. Then mixed.

Too Faced Sweethearts – rose pink shimmer / soft coral pink / peachy pink shimmer
I love this blush! Really, it’s 4 colors in one. I traveled with it for over 2 weeks and it was the only blush I needed. I could use the colors individually or swirled together and it looks perfect on me. It’s the perfect blush!

bareMinerals the Natural High, NARS Silvana, Pumpkin & Poppy Red Menace blush swatches
bareMinerals the Natural High – golden petal peach
This blush is absolutely lovely. To me it’s a peachy-pink with gold shimmer. I swatched it heavily here, but if you apply it lighter, it’s perfect. Others have pointed out that it’s a good clone for NARS Orgasm and it lacks any chunky shimmer or glitter. It’s perfectly pretty. I do like the official color description, too.

Pumpkin & Poppy Red Menace – red-pink cream
To me this is a hot pink cream blush and it gives a nice natural flush when used lightly.

bareMinerals the Natural High, NARS Silvana, Pumpkin & Poppy Red Menace blush swatches
NARS Silvana – natural peach terracotta
Silvana is a vintage shade offered from NARS and I rarely see it discussed. I picked it up because I can use it as a contour or as a blush. I love it on me as a more natural cheek color.

These are all colors that I love on me.

What colors are you drawn to wear for Spring? Are any of these a Lust Have for you?

Some products purchased by me. Some products sent for consideration. All opinions are my own.
To the best of my knowledge, all products are cruelty-free.
