Cream blush saves your day
Posted on 15 January 2006
Since the winter is not over yet, no matter how hard I wish the sun to start glowing, think about purchasing and using blush. It makes you look healthy and rested, a sheer strike of happiness in the dull weather.
As you can see on the picture left, the fuchsia and rose shades are in, but if your skin tone does not tolerate them, use any shade you like.
Another great thing about blush is cream blush. Although I'm not big on multiple use products, cream blushes have saved me on numerous occasions when I just didn't have enough time to do my makeup properly (read: I overslept, was weaken up by a frenetic phone call telling me how late I was)
So, if you want to look decent and have a radiant glow, put on a moisturizer, wait two minutes for it to sink in, use a concealer to hide the trouble spots, put some loose powder on your nose and forehead if they tend to get shiny and dress your lashes with mascara. Dip your index and middle finger in cream blush and apply it to cheeks. Blend well and you're ready to go! (in 5 minutes!)
My favorite cream blushes are Gardenbotanika Cherry Lip & Cheek Stain, Stila Convertible Color and MAC blushcreame.
You can apply cream blush to your lips too using only your finger, and you can give yourself a plus point by rolling some gloss on top of it.

Oh yeah, cream blushes are a great way to save time. It is easy to apply plus it blends well in your skin, which in turn gives you a matte, natural finish! I prefer using cream blushes over powder ones.
