Always a sucker for dewy skin, my quest for the perfect blush has led me down many a Sephora aisle over the years (and left me with a pretty epic list of favourites). But since variety is the spice of life and what not, my newest go-tos were just too good not to share, all for different reasons: From a little extra "glow-from-within," to that perfect peachy finish, these three blushes are hands-down my top picks for spring... And although I'm no makeup expert, I think you may just agree.
First up is the one I've consistently turned to for the better part of a year —
Josie Maran's Coconut Watercolor Cheek Gelee in "Poppy Paradise." It provides a subtle pop of colour, but the best part is how nourishing it is to the skin. It's packed with good-for-you ingredients that leaves cheeks dewy and soft without the slightest trace of film... "Glow-from-within" doesn't even begin to describe this one, people.
Next up is a new favourite,
Makeup Forever's HD Blush in 215. Seriously though, I love. this. blush —
exclamation mark. The cream formula glides on effortlessly and blends in to leave a satin finish that's basically like second skin. Not to mention the fact that this peachy shade in particular gives the illusion of a sun-kissed complexion, when in reality that couldn't be farther from the truth. This one gets two thumbs up from me, no question!
Finally I had to include
Clinique's Cheek Pops in the shade in "Berry Pop." Their colour range in general is amazing and I love the formulation — it's beautifully pigmented yet it goes on in a super subtle, barely-there finish... Perfect for no-makeup makeup days, if you know what I mean (winky face). And can we just take a moment to acknowledge the delightful floral imprint? Hubba hubba! In my opinion, this one is a mega-must.
So those are my picks — what are yours? If you have any current faves or amazing recommendations, I'm all ears! xx
