I’ll admit it: blush frightens me.

The fear of unwittingly replicating Raggedy Anne’s look is ever present. Blush is so…subjective. Where, exactly, does the blush go? And what color does one use?

And as if those questions were not are vexing enough, we haven’t even gotten to talk of the canvas. Once placement and pigment are accounted for, the considerations of the skin need to be addressed.

Rachel and I concluded that skin looks best when dewy. Our moisturizers, like Face Finishing Moisturizer, leave skin dewy and glowing. So, we thought that by combining one of our favorite blushes (Orgasm by Nars) with one of our favorite moisturizers (Face Finishing Moisturizer from Perricone MD) that we could make an easy to use and flattering cream blush.

To our delight, it worked- and we wanted to share this demo with you. Try it out and let us know what you think!
