When I was growing up, the only kind of blush I ever used, or was even introduced to, were powder blushes. I have come to learn that there are so many variations besides powder now, that I want to make sure you know, too.
In this video I mention several different types of blushes/brands. They are:
- Three Custom Colors Crème to Powder Blush in “Morning After” (*PR provided)
- tarte Cheek Stain in “True Love” (*discontinued – boo! – GWP)
- Clinique Blushwear Cream Stick in “Shy Blush” (*mine is a mini-tube GWP)
- MAC Blushcreme in “Florida” (*PR provided)
- Benefit “Posie Tint” (*from a gift bag)
- NARS Cream Blush in “Penny Lane” (*from a giveaway)

Let me know if you have tried any of these, or if you have heard of another blush type that I didn’t list here. I would love to hear about it.
