| I want to get some blush samples for my sister to try with my next order, so I was curious to see what the fan favorites are in case I'm missing out on any good ones. Let's hear it, ladies! |

| Azalea looks just like my natural blush! For shimmer I think I like Tea Rose on me the most. |

these days i'm always goin' straight for the "apricot"
(satin matte - warm medium apricot).
this suits my fair to medium olive-ish skin tone (I use 01 "laila" - but can get away with w2, w3, and n3).
great for everyday. |

Peach rose..? They don't have that at all on alima's website. Unless you mean Melon, medium peach with hints of rose! |

| I recently received more blush samples so I gave Pink a try and really like it! It's so natural but gives me the color I need! I have to admit I was very skeptical at first, thinking the color in the sample pot was too subdued and wouldn't be bright enough, but it really surprised me after I applied it. This color is looking like my everyday fav... |

I also liked the pink one that I received as a sample and loved it. Out of the shimmery ones I ordered as samples I liked Sahara. Slightly off-topic: but I really liked an Azure blue eyeshadow sample they sent, but unfortuantely I don't see it on their site.  |

| I really like Pink. I think its very pretty and soft, not too sparkly. I have a number of the other ones on your list but haven't tried them yet! |

I can't remember, are you a neutral fair? (do you use Alima N1?) Anyway, if you like Pink, you'd probably like Tea Rose (which is actually shimmery). Have you tried that color yet? I really like the Pink and when I want to wear more of a shimmer I like the Tea Rose. They have similar levels of pigment. |

I voted for candy, although it's the only one I've tried  . Also wearing Alima Chai on my skinny lips in the picture. |
I LOVE that picture Sundew, you gorgeous thing you! And that chai lip balm really looks like it was made for you! Actually chai is my favorite balm color--- I find myself reaching for it almost every day... |

Too kind, literally  . I guess I have to buy a full size chai lip balm since you said it was made for me . Really though, I'm using my sample more and more now and love it. I've been afraid of using color on my skinny lips for so long that I assumed (by the looks of it in the pot) the chai was going to be too much so it just sat in my makeup bag for awhile. I bought it because I remembered you mentioning it so thank you thank you! I would have never picked out that color by myself. |

Hi Amnis, I think I'm more of a cool fair. I have a sample of Tea Rose, which I have not yet tried, but I think I'll give it a whirl soon since you say you like it! |

I think your lips look great in Chai! I ordered a sample of Alima's Pink balm and really like it! It's a good YLBB shade for me. You might like it too. |

Let me know how you like it. It's a tad bit warmer than Pink so I am curious to see if it warms up your complexion (or if you think it's too warm on your skin). |
