Which Blush?

[hpgirl512]

I don't really wear blush because when i do i look like a barbie doll. My cheeks are naturally kinda rosy. What color blush should i try??

MAC blush in margin. that was my first blush. i felt the same way and didnt want to look crazy. but i bought margin and it worked out great. I never felt like a "doll" lol. but yeah i think its a great blush!

You want to get a blush that imitates your natural flush...Smashbox's blush/gel "o-glow" is supposed to turn your cheeks the shade that you naturally blush (I've never tried it though) or if like you say your cheeks are a natural rosy you may want to get a rosy color to just intensify it a little bit.

hmm.. I have that kind of cheek. And I'm pretty dark, lol.

I tried 2 blushes and they actually looked good on me: peachy color and wine-y color..

maybe they'll look good on you too..

good luck

I'd try a bronzy blush, like Peachtwist or Sunbasque.

I would check out the mineralized blushes that just came out. Like the above poster said, Dainty is a lovely color! Its a beautiful peachy color.

Try a peachy colour, even a bronzer that will counteract your natural rosiness. I own very few blushes, and most of them are peachy (Springsheen, Nuance from Sonic Chic, etc).

...But honestly, those of us with rosy cheeks (me included!) should embrace blush! Don't be scared of it. I used to be deathly afraid, since I was red enough, but the funny thing is...blush sort of "evens out" my redness, if that makes sense? It doesn't really make it more prominent, just sort of blends it out more and makes it softer. I just usually use a little MSNF to even out the skintone a little bit, and then blush, and I'm ready to go! Looks great.
