I love gel blushes in tubes as they are so clean and easy to use, though lately I started to use the blushettes from Surf Baby again. Especially Bound for Love is gorgeous under Strada as it picks up the mauvey undertones.
What are your fav gel blushes that are currently available?

Gel blushes (and bronzers) in squeeze tubes are so easy! I hope other brands will be offering them next year because there aren't many out there.

I stocked up on Just a Pinch and now I'm hanging in there until it's released in JaP and other shades. Desperately waiting for the return on Tokyo Rose...

In general, I find gel blushes to be more youthful than powder blushes, though I like both, but for different reasons.

EdelMC, if there are no MAC gel or cream blushes in 2012, I might divert to MUFE HD blushes for the summer...

I have my fingers and toes crossed that Tokyo Rose and cheek hues get repromoted. I would also love to try just a pinch. I have been thinking of trying mufe hd blush. There's a light pink one, I think it's called nip slip...

Those MUFE ones are fantastic. The only problem is that too much comes out of the package. It's not messy; just a bit wasteful. I bet pros love them if they have a whole group of people to makeup at once. One pump on the back of the hand and you could put blush on an entire dance troupe!

I have a great gel blush from Armani that I think I got last Summer. It might have been LE though - I can only buy Armani when I travel.

Haha, that's the downside of many products that come with a pump. This reminds me of the Prolongwear concealer. Gosh, what a waste of product as i only use 1/4 of what came out however soft I pressed the pump.

OMG I need that purple gel blush!!!!!



Hey all you purple blush craving people. I just saw some photos of the YSL gel blushes for Spring '12 and there is a to-die-for lavender one:


YSL's been stepping it up lately...I think I might just step in its direction for a couple of these - I love that watermelon pink on the left too.

It's supposedly a new product - a gel that's buildable, which is pretty unique! In the past, I wanted to love gel blushes but they'd often be streaky or they'd fade really fast or leave my cheeks feeling kind of plastic-coated, and of course they would always be quite sheer (which was the best part about them). I'm all for a new version of gel blush. I'll have to check these out at some point when they're available.

Love them as a base.

I found a website that has the new YSL 2012 collection with those beautiful gel blushes. It's going to be called Candy Face. The eyeshadows are to die for and that blue mascara has my name written all over it. Going to be a very expensive makeup haul for me next year between this & MAC stuff. PS: If I am not allowed to post this webiste, I deeply apologize and will remove it. I just wanted you fellow makeup addicts to take a peek. Tx to ourvanity.com.

Ooh I'm definitely interested in the lilac and pink l/s, the gel blushes look gorgeous as well.

Spring needs to hurry up and get here

Any idea when the YSL spring collection usually comes out? I spy many items I am interested in!

According to another website, I can't remember it at the moment. It's suppose to be released on December 26th. Same day as Daphne Guinness's line. This is going to be an after Christmas gift for myself and then with the Iris Apfel collection coming out on January 5th. I'm going to be a very broke girl, but a very good-looking & happy girl.

Thanks October Violet! That is exciting news for me! I actually don't want too much stuff from Daphne Guinness, so I will be buying at least two gel blushes, the lavender sheer candy lippie and we'll see what else from this YSL collection.

Never had anything from YSL. I wonder what kind of fragrance they use. I would love that purple gelblush but I'd have to smell it before purchasing because I am so sensitive.

It's been a while since I last used something from YSL, but they scent less than Guerlain for example. I had a primer from then and it was pretty subtly scented.
