Finally Found the Perfect Blush.....

...for me anyway!  I have tried sooo many blushes, from loose powder to liquid to cream to powdered in a compact and various brands of each kind.  High end and drugstore.

 

I have discoloration and broken capillaries on my cheek that I need to cover first and when I would get to applying my blush, everything seemed to show up again or it would grab more color in different spots.   Frustrating!!

 

I went to Ulta with my 20% off coupon to get more Benefit liquid dandelion blush, which was working pretty good.  Well they didn't have it anymore, so I got the Benefit powdered dandelion blush.

 

It is this perfect creamy looking pink color and goes on smoothly and evenly and stays for the day.  No problems applying it (use an IT rounded brush), does not look dry at all and looks so natural.  Perfect color for me. It comes in a little box and a travel size is available.

 

Hoping this might help someone else with blush issues.  It is expensive, but so was my trying all those other blushes.  It's a big find for me!

 

Just to add that this is on top of Lancome Renergie liquid foundation and I am light medium coloring with cool undertones and have older dry skin!

I love Lancome Regenerist foundation. I use the very fair porcelain...amazing what it does for skin, so beautiful! I've bounced around alot trying different brands...even Guerlain spf 50 tinted foundation Baby Glow, and it's not anywhere as nice as Lancomes regenerist(spelling??). Going to get it after Christmas 😀

Isn’t it great when you find the perfect product? I’ve been downsizing my blush collection and am down to two powders, one being the Dandelion, the other is, of all things, a Wet n Wild coloricon ombre blush which is the perfect pink/peach for me.

Re: Finally Found the Perfect Blush.....

I'm obsessed with blushes. I have way too many in my arsenal. It's so difficult to find the perfect one so I have a few faves of my own. My most recent find is WnW's coloricon in a shade called Mellow Wine. It has exceptional pigmentation and it seems to last all day. Gives me a satiny finish, not matte at all. Reviews for this blush were really good and that's what made me buy it.

Blush color is as individual as finding the perfect foundation shade.  I know ....have way too many that I loved and bought, but never worked for me. I'll check this out when I go to Ulta, you never know, this could be my perfect product, too. Thanks for posting!

Have to chime in...my two favorite blushes are Too faced in Candy Glow, and cream blush in a stick (all natural) is cream stick, Ilia, in shade Tenderly. No need to wear together unless you want.

I know what you mean,  I have spider veins on my cheeks (very small) and I find powder related blushes work the best for coverage.  Any one of Laura Geller blushes would work well.

Nars O liquid blush is very nice and I also purchased Eve Pearl's trio color blush that is very nice.  I am a fair/light normal skin.  69 years old today!
