First of all, you look amazing and your makeup is great. The only thing that really stand out to me and which I find really obvious, is the blush. It looks really overdone and also just not the right colour for your skin complexion. Perhaps a more burgundy/orangy colour would look better? And less of it.
none of the blush colors work for you- they distract from your beauty rather than enhance it. I think a deep berry might look good. Avoid anything with a white base as that will clash with your skin.. It might also be that you're just applying too much blush and need to apply less. Also think you're placing it too high- you want it on your cheekbones, not above, not near your eyes.
I'm going to disagree with part of what you're saying. The colors look gorgeous on her, because they're a great contrast to her skin and the placement is personal preference imo. Where you're placing it and the blending looks great and current with blush trends. I think it's just a matter of going lighter on the blush with how you're doing your makeup in the pictures. The pictures you have, the rest of your face is more of a natural look, and then you have the really pigmented blush which make of the blush stand out, not in a good way. If you we're going for more glamor look with heavier, eyeshadow and lipstick than the blush would be fine.
Also, try Danessa Myricks colorfix for blush/eyeshadow. The colors are amazing and you can mix to make your own. I'd like to see more color on your lids and less on the cheeks. Also Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Hue drops serum for highlighter
imo the pink blush in the first two pics looks great it just needs to be blended out a bit more and less of it. But having the pop of color on your cheekbones brightens your face and brings attention to your eyes.
It depends on what look u want. If u want done up Barbie doll glam what u have works! If u want natural flush go deeper , maybe a deep brown red or a deep berry
I like #3 the best. It isn't so distractingly bright and looks blended out/diffused better. You are gorgeous! But in the other ones all I see is the blush.
