Ciele is $34 and huda is $23. If you really need to stay under 30 go with the huda. Much better than rare even though I love rare (their lip oil is fab btw).

Oh man..... Blush is the thing I have more of than any other category so this is tough.... One of the blushes I reach for the most is from Westman Atelier, their blush stick. Unfortunately this color isn't sold at sephora but you can get it on their website, it's the color Mimi. It's kind of a cool leaning rosy nude, like it started as a brown nude and started going to a mauve color but stopped along the way. I know it sounds weird but I wear it probably twice a week. Blends easily, one of those colors that goes with everything.... I'm linking the product at sephora but again this color isn't at sephora.

DanielleDanielle has some great points. Just to add a couple things... Are you asking about true bronzer or contour? This is kind of a technique question following with Danielle. Placement of your bronzer /contour differs ever so slightly. Personally, I prefer placing my *contour* first as it kind of tells you where your blush should go, then blush, then bronzer as bronzer used for adding warmth and that sun-kissed glow might go over your blush depending on how you wear your blush. Highlighter is last for me. Bronzer goes everywhere the sun would hit you at noon when it's directly over head, so forhead, nose, top of cheekbones, and the sides of the face. Contour goes where the sun doesn't hit you, under the cheekbones, under the chin, jawline. Hopefully that helps. Linking my favorite contour and bronzer...

Depending on how strong a color pay off you're looking for I'd recommend trying the one from kosas. I rarely use bronzer usually but Nikki LA Rose convinced me to try this one (I use the lightest shade) and I love it. It's subtle so you might want to go darker if you want more color pay off but the light one is subtle, easy to blend, doesn't leave a "chunk" of color in the first spot that touches my face... Note I'm using this as a true bronzer and not contour.

I always come back to Rare Beauty's powder highlighters. some people have had problems with them breaking, but the only time mine has broken when I literally dropped it on the floor. If you apply it with a large powder brush you get that beautiful diffused non-stripy look. It’s just beautiful and it comes in several colors. my favorite color is the champagne one. I wanna say it’s called illuminate but it’s one color darker than the white. It goes with everything. But the other shades are lovely as well. I’m pretty sure I have all of them. 😇❤️

That's my favorite way to apply any liquid blush, sometimes creams too. I haven't tried Saie yet but I'm also kind of "full" on blush unless there's a color I just can't live without. How would you compare the Saie to like Ciele liquid blush or Huda's?

Such a perfect Sunday best! @itsfi

@deseraelee Bronzer goes where the sun hits like your forehead, cheeks, chin, nose. Highlighter goes where you want to bring out like the center of your nose, under brows, inner corner of your eyes, high points of your cheeks.

@cdm19 i say go for it, its a really pretty baby pink.

@jazzyyyyy @Sephora employee here I love PT blushes because you get powder and cream. If you like glow Haus labs would be a better choice.
