new loves!! blushcremes

[GreekChick]

I have a question for anyone who seems to be loving the blushcreams as much as I do: how do you keep yours clean so that there is no bacteria when you apply them, or close them...do yo apply them wit your fingers, with a sponge, or with a brush? This was the big debate at work yesterday because we had clients who asked if they're acne-prone...In my opinion, they csn only be acne-prone if you apply them with your fingers, or if you dont take a tissue and wipe the top off from time to time..What do you think?

i dont know about the sanitizing part but i used to use mine w/ the 192 brush but after an ma used a blushcreme on me with a regular fluffy brush i now just use a regular fluffy brush!

When I put blushcremes on other people I use the 116 or the 109. I like using smaller fluffy brushes because it makes it easier to buff out the color yet the smaller brushes are still somewhat dense. and if they're that worried about keeping their product clean, just wipe a tissue over the top of it before they use it

Hi Greekchick, are you from Greece??????

Well I'm plannning to buy my first blushcream in a while, and until now I use the Stila CCs with my fingers and never had any problems with bacteria that made my skin look awful!!!

 

[foreveratorifan]

or they can buy some disposable applicators (the plastic kind) really cheap at a makeup supply store and scrape some product out and use with their clean fingers or a brush...

otherwise using a clean makeup brush each type should be fine

Wow, good tip! I wasnt sure if using a normal blush brush was going to work, but I will have to try that and see. Have you used the 190 foundation brush? Until now, this one was my choice....

I use my fingers to apply too. Hmm.. I believe my blushcremes are not affected by bacteria (So confident? Hohoho!!) because I apply it only in the morning where my fingers are in super-clean stage. I mean, I never have to reapply it during the day. So I'm sure my blushcremes are touched by clean fingers! LOL!

 

[blueaygi]

normally in the morning i'm in a hurry so i use my fingers, i just make sure to always wash my hands before i use it. so far i haven't had any problems =O)

 

[joytheobscure]

I use my fingers... I will deal with the bacteria later

I've never broken out and I've had britwit since august.

I got Poppy Hop and Awaken and the Blossoming blush creme. I am LOVING Poppy Hop. The reason I asked for look #2 was for Overgrown! But the best thing from Culturebloom I think is the Violet Underground eye kohl.

[mel0622]

I've recently discovered that I am totally in LOVE with Shy Angel blush. I need to go grab a few more backups ASAP.

It's a GORGEOUS highlighter, especially on the browbone.

I'm using more and more cream blushes because it gives that dewey flush that Brides love, with a lot less stress on my behalf!
