First, you are absolutely gorgeous. Your "looks" are so versatile! And second, you are bloody brilliant. I am new to wearing make up (sad, I know) but have been fascinated with all of the great tutorials and tips. I would never have thought to use eyeshadow. Lots of thanks for your great expertise!
Can anyone please let me know if there is a nice orange blush besides NYX cinnamon that would show up nicely on brown skin but is completely matte or sheer?
I bought sunset because of this video-gorgeous. Who knew orange could look so good on brown skin?! I bought it when she first posted this! So glad I did!! It looks so good and natural!
I agree I love orange blush. I actually one day said to myself, "why not try an orange eyeshadow as a blush on my cheek and it look fab" while I was doing a look on myself. I was using a custom palette from Coastal Scents at the time and since then I fell in love. I also bought the orange single blush from NYX loooove it! lol It looks fabulous on women of color I personally dont care for the pink blushes, when I wear pink blushes I always mix in a bronzer or another shade of blush to get my look
i use orange blush today for the first time after watching your video and i was actually shocked, i cant believe that i was using pink blush all this time. it had a nice glow and looked fantastic. i am a colored woman. thanks for the video and keep them coming as i will be watching.
i know this is an old vid. but ive watched three times trying to figure how you have your hair cut. i LOVE what i can see do you have pics of the back?
Yep. Orange is a wonderful color on darker skin tones. The barbie pinks just weren't satisfying enough for me. I wish I would have seen this video b4 purchasing my expensive NARS. Lol. But it's ok. Now I know I have other alternatives when I run out.
Very nice, and detailed video. Very informative because as darker skinned women it can be more difficult to find colors that compliment brown skin other than the barbie pinks! Btw, I LOOOOVE your eyeshadow, is that the same look from your cali blues video?

I just kinda stumbled on your video and i must say i am so happy i did..i never ever thought about orange blush and i love your makeup, period. It is just so wonderful to find a youtube vlogger the same skin tone as me that loves color. I LOVE IT!!! Keep it up ma'am KUDOS!
hi, gotta say that I love all your vids, I'm looking for the NYX eyeshadow that you mentioned in your video, but I only see Sunset Ray, is it the one and the same? Thanks. (anyone can answer.....)
Great video! Shades of orange is one of favorite colors for makeup ...particularly for women of color. It just makes our skin look amazing! I like it on the lip as well as on the cheeks. I like using that type of stipling brush for cream and powder products...blends AMAZINGLY!
I'm not a woman of color, but I love orange blush (though I don't have any). I'm trying to get ahold of some. I think it looks very lovely and high end. I'm sick of the drugstores just stocking pink blushes. They need to take a page out of MAC and NARS and get some taupes and oranges in there!
whats da name of da blush brush again u got from target becuz i have been looking for a brush like that i dont wanna spend money by going 2 MAC...lol...i wanna weigh my option & pay a decent price....its calledbeauty on a budget....lmbo...im into corals peachy orange colors too...i was wondering did NYX have a similar color 2 NARS
You can also use MAC's eyeshadow Rule as a beautiful orange blush. Brush a little Gold Deposit on as a highlighter and you have a sumptuous look on NW45ish skin. I also like to add a bit of color to the temples of my forehead and kiss the chin with what's left on my brush. If you haven't tried it - like she said - orange is gorgeous on on brown skin! Thanks for the great NYX tips. Will be trying those soon - keep the vids coming girl. I am now a subbie!
I love orange blush its so nice. You should also try Black Radiance Blushes in Soft Honey and Artisan Color Baked blush in Toasted Almond they are soooo pigmented and affordable. I have to use a duo fiber stippling brush for these blushes because of the pigmentation.
Woops (iPhone predictions) * I meant to say, thank u soo much for making this vid. ScandlousBeauty raves onabout Taj Mahal in her videos, and it really is a beautiful pigmented blush. BUT like u, I ain't about to pay £25 for a blush :-/ sorry, I'm a student food is more important than NARS. Anyway, I will definately be ordering these alternatives online! Yayyy thank u ma'am!!!
So glad I stumbled on your vid, I ADORE orange blush as well and I have chocolate brown skin but it looks fabulous! For those interested in an inexpensive yet awesome orange shade try Vera Moore in Cinnamon. I found mine in a DR in NYC and paid about $15. Spice is also a nice shade but I digress, nice vid and you have a new sub :)
I couldn't take my eyes off you, I love your look on this video, the colours suit you really well and the hair and you sweet voice :) What top are you wearing here, I love it. Thanks so much for these cheaper alternatives! I have olive skin and I much prefer the look of orange/peach blushes too, I love Eva Medes' look.
Girl. You are doing it right now! I'm a gay man and at the risk of sounding like a creep or something, I'm all about it. You are just too beautiful. Your skin color is so radiant and your personality is magnificent. Thank you for the tutorial. I'll definitely be applying it!!
Thanks for all your little secrets. What do you have on your lips and what type of foundation do you use? I have NW45 from MAC and I absolutely HATE it! Please help...
@KNLJCF0 I know I am not her , but I am also a NW45 from mac and I hated it too. It never seemed to completely match me . I prefer Bobbi Brown Skin foundation in chestnut . Its more expensive , but it is a better match for me .
LOVE the video, gorgeous! I adore NYX cosmetics too..thanks so much for the Sunset and Africa tip..I need to pick them up and have them in my train case for my make up artistry jobs! :) You look so elegant here, but then you do in all your videos. Love the blue eyeshadow and the peacock feathers in your hair!! Sophisticated ELEGANCE!!!!!
Hi Ebony, it's Eboni. I was surprised to see that you're using shadow on the cheeks. Please try to shadows as a lipstick. (1) lip smoother (2)line lips if you choose. (3) blot lips with shadow using an angle blush. (4) dab with clear gloss. FABULOUS! YOUR PLETHORA OF SHADOWS NOW BECOME LIPSTICKS YOU NEVER THOUGHT YOU HAD!
I am Puertorican and maybe just a bit lighter than you and I have always loved orange blush as well. I found blaze eyeshadow from bareminerals to look great on my skin tone.
Ebony, I am so thankful for all of your videos and especially this in particular! I ordered the Sunset and the Africa and tried them both and I LOOOOOOOOOVED them both! You really saved me a lot of money and to be able to stretch that dollar (Lol) Keep those videos comin. BLESS YOU!
@colouredbeautiful...I ♥ your videos... I tried Sunset & Africa on my dark brown skin and I am in ♥...I was unsure but I got so so many compliments...it suits me...thanks for the suggestions about orange blush...I had no idea dark skinned girls like me could pull it off...I can't wait to watch the rest of your videos!!!!
Hey Ebony. I wanted to try this look so I bought Sunset on Ebay. However, when I received it, the color is actually called Sunset Ray 85A. This is also the color on the NYX website (it appears that regular Sunset is not on the website anymore). Can you take a look and tell me if you think it's the same before I return this?
Great work, you're a beautiful woman and the colors you select and your application are flawless. Puhleeeez do a tut on your electric blue eye look. SMASHING! and yes big up on giving the orange blush the shine it deserves!
I really have to thank you.. I used to use peach blush and I really did like it.. But I say this video.. I don't have NYX but i'm thinking of buying it.. But in the mean while I'm using Jordana single e/s in Desert spice.. and OMG.. I love love it..
MAC has two really orange eyeshadows - "Red Brick" (Orange Red) and "Orange" (Neon Orange). Both are 14.50. The "Morange" lipstick is also really orange.
I was never a "blush wearer" but after looking at your video I'm going to try the oranges that you've mentioned from NYX's website. Thank you my sistah!
I always wear ambering rose as a blush, but i bought MAC optomistic orange creamblush from the lily pulitzer line a while back but i still haven't used it. I hope it gives me A NICE look. idk, but i am going to buy taj mahal tommorrow i guess. thanks :)
Great video. I'm gonna try orange blush for the first time because of this video. It looks so good on you I just have to try it. I will also be buying the skunk brush for Target. I love your look for less approach that's why I started my channel. I don't have to wear Mac and Nars to be fly. I bet I'll make you think it was Mac. I'm the queen of the fakeout. :0)
You're make up is FLAWLESS! Thanks for the tips..I'm a chocolate complexion myself but Im kind of new to makeup and was iffy about orange. I'm glad I came across your video because Im going to order these colors! Thank you so much! God Bless.
Oh I forgot! I read in Specktra that NYX Golden Orange eyeshadow was a great dupe for Taj Mahal. I don't own TM, but the Golden Orange looks GORGEOUS as a blush! Also NYX Cream Blush in Orange looks amazing.
I LOVE orange blushes.I totally get what you say. I surf the net looking for dupes of MAC and NARS. BUT, sometimes I spend more buying dupes that end up not working instead of just spending the $. The truth is that many high end blushes are so pigmented that you end up using very little product and they last for a long, long time. I buy dupes for eyeshadows and lipsticks, but for a blush that I know will last I'm willing to spend some cash (or wait until birthday/valentines/christmas)
agreed. I would complain about Nars blushes being expensive if not for the fact that I know they'd last for a VERY long time. All I need is one swipe for my Taj Mahal and that's it. That pigmented.
No one buys Nars blush for the "tab called Nars"..they buy it cos it's pigmented and will last a long time.
I just purchased optimistic orange from MAC and didn't realize I could get that same effect from my sunset eye shadow....now I know. Thanks so much for the options.
I totally agree with everything you said. It is not about the name but rather about what makes the looks works and what suits you.. You sound just like me. lol. Orange is a beautiful colour, especially as a blush and highlighter on dark skin. You are brilliant, and you obviously have an eye for colour and know how to use them. A big thumbs up to you. Keep up the good work.
I like you because you are soooo right!! Y spend ALOT of money of "brand" cosmetics when you can get the alternative!! I like that...you saving us money and keeping us looking good!! Kudos to you DIVA!! Thanks!
ps: i need your palette...like ASAP...very anxious!! lol
I had a palette with orange blush and I loved it. Used it every day. When it ran out I was so sad. Thanks for this video, now I know where I can get a new Orange Blush!
Great video! I have been a fan of Orange Blushes from the first time I tried IMAN' Face Palette in 'Suede', unfortunately I think it has been discontinued : ( However ladies may want to check out an alternative orange blush from a UK brand 'Sleek MakeUp' in a shade called 'Sahara' I love it! They use to have a brighter shade called 'Rust' but since they rebranded I haven't seen that around.
Thankyou sooo much for letting women of colour know we can do orange blush i think it's fierce!.....i have what you would call "chocolate skin" so thanks for letting us know we can do orange blush too! luv ya!
pimk dont show on me and im 50% wihte& im 50% brazilian and gold and copper and orange only show up on me. im not super into pink. it doesnt even bring color to my face nor fits my character. do you know wat i should use?
thanks for the tips. I have a question though, what is your take on Salmon concealer? I heard somewhere that that works good on brown skin too. Do you know? Thanks
I tried out orange blush (by using my orange eyeshadow) and I LOVE IT! It makes me look like I have that summer glow...way better than my bronzer.Thanks so much for the tip! =)
You are so beautiful and creative. Im so happy you actually show how color can work on WOC. Thank you. Please do a tutorial on this look. Keep up the great work.
Ebony I just stumbled across your chanel, and I must say I am so glad I did. I love MAC products. However I love an alternative at a cheaper price, and I'm so glad you show, and give examples of alternatives. Thank you so much. I will be checking your website out sooner than later.
i absolutely LOVE your vids im waiting for the tutorial for the eye look you have going on in this video...i loveee blue eyeshadow on brown skin GORGEOUS! neway i ordered my nyx oranges today cannot wait until they get here to try them !
After watching your video on orange blush, I purchased your pumpkin and currupt red eye shadows. I used them a blush (not at the same time) and was very surprise and happy. Girl you are the best. God Bless you and your gift.
Another hit. You make being beautifully groomed seem simple.Your instructions are easy to follow. But be aware that you start with a beautiful, natural palette.
thanks 4 this video lol u inspired me to go orange lol im not totally there yet but i did by brownish orange and i love it thanks for the video keep them koming 5 stars
one more thing, im a college student and have to do my own hair til i go home so ur videos really come in handy. can u also give a suggestion of products? what do u do about ur nape area? do u shape it up or have it done for u?
you are so beautiful and informative. i have learned so much from you. can you please do so more videos on how to style short hair?(i did the style from ur first styling video and got sooo many complements!) LASTLY (lol) and my reason for commenting, can you teach us ladies with shorter hair how to rock hair accessories? u do it so well and look amazing. (btw i kinda agree with u about the pink. every skin tone has its shade. color is limitless)
At the risk of sound like a stalker(and I am so not ). I just wanted to say that you are such a positive being. Its a joy to watch your videos. They are informative and reasonable. Your work is great and your a beautiful person. It was a welcomed surprise to come across your page. Continue to be blessed.
I ordered Cinnamon from Cherry Culture and OMG i love it! thanks for recommending it. I love the way the orange looks on my brown skin. I always skipped applying blush because i felt that pink just didn't look natural on our skin. I bought Terra Cotta, Copper, and Cinnamon and I really like them
Girl the ELF Contour and blush duo for $3 is the BOMB!!! I am ADDICTED to the orange blush and brown contour color in it. I haven't found another blush that even comes close. It just works wonders for me.
Thanks for the heads up. I've been using up the orange in my Coastal Scents Palette because I use it as both shadow AND blush! I'll hit the NYX counter tomorrow.
off topic but i love the headband... I have short hair too and i didnt really think adding pieces to my hair would be ok. So being that you look so cute with the feather i think im going to experiment a little. Thanx...
Do you like the NYX hot orange? I ordered it online because the color was so vibrant. But when I got it home it wasn't so vibrant on....just alot of glitter. I was a litte disappointed but I still play around with it.
this is a good idea, as an eyeshadow the Africa has a bit of fall out that irritates my eyes due to all of the shimmer, but PERFECT as a blush option! Thanks for sharing.
After your Favorite Nyx video, I rushed and ordered several of your suggested products including Africa. I exclusively use it as a blush. As far as the "pink craze"..I thought it was just me. Pinks are nice but I like the copper/orange look as well. I also noticed that Scandalous Beauty mentioned organge blush for brown skin in a recent video of hers. Keep up the great videos!
Thanks for the advise for Nars alternative. Their blushes are lovely but much too pricey. I ordered the N.Y.X. eyeshadow in "Africa" and it does work nice as a blush and then I highlite with a brighter bronzey orange and it's just beautiful.
This was a great guide... wish I would have seen it sooner. I just took the pluge for my birthday and purchased the TajMahal blush and it is pretty, but I already own the two NYX and you are on point with the dupe.
First, you are absolutely gorgeous. Your "looks" are so versatile! And second, you are bloody brilliant. I am new to wearing make up (sad, I know) but have been fascinated with all of the great tutorials and tips. I would never have thought to use eyeshadow. Lots of thanks for your great expertise!

Hey Ebony. I wanted to try this look so I bought Sunset on Ebay. However, when I received it, the color is actually called Sunset Ray 85A. This is also the color on the NYX website (it appears that regular Sunset is not on the website anymore). Can you take a look and tell me if you think it's the same before I return this?

the "Red Iron Oxide - 170 shade" from coastal scents is soooo beautiful.
It's a lovely deep orange that I got yesterday and it shows up really well on my skin (med. brown)
but anyway- thanks for the review! :)

Great video. I'm gonna try orange blush for the first time because of this video. It looks so good on you I just have to try it. I will also be buying the skunk brush for Target. I love your look for less approach that's why I started my channel. I don't have to wear Mac and Nars to be fly. I bet I'll make you think it was Mac. I'm the queen of the fakeout. :0)

Oh I forgot! I read in Specktra that NYX Golden Orange eyeshadow was a great dupe for Taj Mahal. I don't own TM, but the Golden Orange looks GORGEOUS as a blush! Also NYX Cream Blush in Orange looks amazing.
ile24 2 years ago
I LOVE orange blushes.I totally get what you say. I surf the net looking for dupes of MAC and NARS. BUT, sometimes I spend more buying dupes that end up not working instead of just spending the $. The truth is that many high end blushes are so pigmented that you end up using very little product and they last for a long, long time. I buy dupes for eyeshadows and lipsticks, but for a blush that I know will last I'm willing to spend some cash (or wait until birthday/valentines/christmas)
ile24 2 years ago 15
@ile24
agreed. I would complain about Nars blushes being expensive if not for the fact that I know they'd last for a VERY long time. All I need is one swipe for my Taj Mahal and that's it. That pigmented.
No one buys Nars blush for the "tab called Nars"..they buy it cos it's pigmented and will last a long time.
It's that simple.

I totally agree with everything you said. It is not about the name but rather about what makes the looks works and what suits you.. You sound just like me. lol. Orange is a beautiful colour, especially as a blush and highlighter on dark skin. You are brilliant, and you obviously have an eye for colour and know how to use them. A big thumbs up to you. Keep up the good work.

Great video! I have been a fan of Orange Blushes from the first time I tried IMAN' Face Palette in 'Suede', unfortunately I think it has been discontinued : ( However ladies may want to check out an alternative orange blush from a UK brand 'Sleek MakeUp' in a shade called 'Sahara' I love it! They use to have a brighter shade called 'Rust' but since they rebranded I haven't seen that around.

Thanks for the advise for Nars alternative. Their blushes are lovely but much too pricey. I ordered the N.Y.X. eyeshadow in "Africa" and it does work nice as a blush and then I highlite with a brighter bronzey orange and it's just beautiful.
