Haha yeah I know. I know. A Tan. Hahah.
There is a chance that some of you may have been on yer holliers though, and have come back all tanned and onny gorgeous. Or you may have darker skin to begin with, and find that pink and peach blush is just too wan for your complexion. You gals need something new in your kits.
I think NARS can help - they have an absolutely amazing blusher called Exhibit A (left) which is a bright, violent orangey/red - and which would be an absolutely awesome statement with the right outfit. And the right dose of bravery too, I should add. Less electric is their cream blush in Cactus Flower, a 'shimmering poppy'. Both are available from BT's in Grafton St, and you'll probably pay about €25+.

MAC fans are also well served because they're a brand who do cater to darker skin tones - their shadow range is great, as is their blusher offering. Cream Colour Base in Virgin Isle is a lovely orangey tint that's sheer and can be used on bare skin, or over makeup. It'll be about €18 from MAC stockists nationwide.
