The Blush thread, all you need to know...

For really, really pale people I'd reccomend Hard Candy blush in Pinkie. It's really bright in the package but when you put on just a little bit it gives you the most perfect rosy color. And because you have to use so little it lasts you forever.

I want to buy something more fun and exciting maybe nars or mac or perscriptives. I have lancome in dusty rose and it looks really natural.

hated Benetint on my skin - didn't suit me at all.

i LOVE LOVE LOVE Maybellines Dream Mousse Blush - i got the wine coloured one. Buildable and blendable... and cheap too!

God... I must be turning into an old woman.. I was up at like 3am watching QVC and this Laura Gellar person was on selling makeup..

She had this product called Bronze and Brighten (along with some other stuff that I would've bought if I had some cash laying around)

Anyways... this stuff looked good, on everyone... even pale skin..

They were using it for blush, bronzer, eyeshadow... it was pretty cool..

I dunno.
QVC.... I must've been bored.

Razin by MAC, or Mystic, or Foolish Me...

Can someone tell me if Alyssa is wearing cream blush here?

 

[gruveechik]

i'd like to add that i adore Revlon Cream Cheek Blush Duo (or called something like that) so much that i've been savouring my Iced Mocha for 3years now! Unhealthy i know - but it's still good. Unfortunately limited offer only - but if anyone in Toronto knows where to get this stuff - let me know. Other than that, Maybelline Mousse Blush is a good second.

I would say yes.
I saw on Allure.com videos that blush like that is applyied using a cream blush and a sponge, never tried it though.

 

[Odette]

Yes that's the way to apply it, I never do it though

BUMP!

What's a good, cheap, rosy blush that would work on a very pale complexion without being too matte?

 

[indian_rose]

At the minute i really like Clarins Multi-Blush ......it just looks so natural and its not that expensive!

It comes in the form as a creamy powder in a nice compact! and the best thing is that it has vitamin A and E, so its good 4 ur skin!

MILANI Luminous. available at some CVS and Targets. Its less than $4 and some people prefer it to NARS Orgasm

 

[velcro]

Can anyone recommend a blush that'll give a sweet flushed pink for a young asian girl with freckles? Would Nars Orgasm do the job?

Like a doll face.

 

[Jane Loves Marc]

^Lola powder blush in Mistress is pinky and doll-like!

 

[Jane Loves Marc]

Speaking of doll-like blush, any color reccomendations for this? Preferably cheap. And how would I apply it to look like this?

A friend of mine works at Nars. I'm very pale (also Asian) and also into the pink, baby-doll flush. Depends on how your complexion is, but I would recommend Desire rather than Orgasm.
