Spring Cheek Challenge 2025: Style Awakening

Spring Cheek Challenge
Style Awakening  💇🏽‍♀️✨⏰

Spoiler

Welcome to the Spring Cheek Challenge!!!  I'm looking for that seasonal refresh.  For the first SPRING Cheek challenge, (I know right.. How is this the first...I couldn't get past IYKYK, "Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking."), I want you to look towards personal moments and icons (person, celebrity, objects) for inspiration.    Look to the Gawds, dahhhhhlings.   And zhuzh it up with an outfit, or hair accessory or anything you think that's relevant.  I've declared this the "year of using my pretty things, " and I'm inviting you to join me!


The INSPO behind the INSPO:
This was fueled by caitbird's brilliant inspo board for Belle, pdxxxx's elite breakdown's of icons, the creative choices of Cissy63 during the Winter Wonderland cheek challenges... And again, Zendaya.

BUT, WHEN YOU NEED A PUSH/INSPO, AS ALWAYS.....I GOT YOUUUUUUU

Here are the weekly themes:

Blush Crush (Apr 8-13)
Meet me in Miami (Apr 14-Apr 20)
Sakura Slay (Apr 21-Apr 27)
Candy Coated Coquette, Pastel Version (Apr 28-May 4)
Candy Coated Coquette, Mocha Mousse Version (May 5-May 11)
Sunday Best (May 12-May 19)

I made a bunch of mood boards; feel free to use them or remix/remake them into your own.

I love the mood board you created for this @itsfi. This makes me want to try the Stila convertable color again, it's been so long. That's a wonderful color on you!

[itsfi]

Thank you! The mood boards have been very calming to put together @PDXXXX; thank you for intro'ing them to me. The Stila blush is definitely a throwback - it's got a good formula to it; tryin' to rotate oldies but goodies and new stuff.

@itsfi  beautiful blush look! That is a great shade on you!

[itsfi]

Thank you @caitbird; these convertible color blushers from Stila got me interested in blush when these first came out, a blush crush if you will, so it seemed fitting for blush crush week here! 😄 They have a more slimmed down shade selection these days but I've managed to pick up a couple of the shades I had when they were first around.

Pretty color, @itsfi ! 🥰

@Titian06, thank you; the color and consistency on this one is nice.

@itsfi Stunning blush look! I used to have the cream Stila blush! I remember it was nice and creamy. That is a lovely shade on you.

[itsfi]

@Mellmars1185, thank you! It's definitely an OG. I remember when these Stila Convertible Colors first came out -  they were one of the blushers that piqued my interest in blush way back when. Glad these are still available through their site. I've refreshed my collection with a couple of shades like this one. I do miss the brand; they had some great packaging. I decided to reach for this one for blush crush week as sorta a throwback as well. 😊
