Once upon a time, I was scared to wear blush, the thought of wearing blush intimidated me as I saw a lot of people wearing blushers in a manner that I didn't like so I stayed away until I realised, it can complete a nearly beat face. Now I love blush but I have quite a great deal of powder blush so I'm building up the cream blush section of my drawers.
Enter Revlon PhotoReady Cream Blush. I don't have much of an opinion of Revlon as a brand but these were recommended and I believe these are a staple in the credible and talented make-up artist Lisa Eldridge's kit.
I only have 3 of the shades Pinched, Flushed (discontinued - I have back-ups) & Coral Reef. The other I would like to pick up is Charmed. They look very out there in the pots, like whoa! As you can see when swatched (each swatch has about 2 - 3 applications) it's sheer, as it goes downwards, the colour itself is pretty sheer so it's buildable.
Pinched light peach / apricot with slight shimmer. It is the lightest shade available. Even on the inside of my arm it was hard to show up, so probably good for those with fairer skin. Although you could use it as a base and go over with a powder blush to give it more of an intensity.
Flushed bright fuchsia great for all complexions especially darker skin tones you could get such a nice pop with this after building it. Yet it's good for all skin tones.
Coral Reef bright orangey coral. Definitely for those with a warmer complexion than a cooler one.
Are there any cream blush fans out there?

Ultimately I think I'm a powder girl at heart however at this time of year I too find myself reaching for cream options instead. I have never tried these and yet on more than one occasion have found myself seeing them in clearance stands in Boots, I'm kicking myself now for not picking one up.

I don't know how to use cream blush. I'm scared because in the times that i've used it before, it smeared with my foundation, making it look like blood stained diarrhoea and I can't get jiggy with that. :( It looks gorgeous though!! <3<3<3
