hi! the blog looks so lovely! one question: do

“hi! the blog looks so lovely! one question: do you have any favorite cheek stains, or liquid/cream based blush?”- thepartydress

Hey thanks!  Yes, I really love Stila’s Convertible Color.  It’s creamy so it leaves a dewy finish, it comes in a zillion colors (which is important) and it lasts without being too risky to apply.  If you’ve applied cheek stains or super pigmented creams you’ll know what I mean about the risk.

Does this: Dewy cream cheek color - also works on lips and eyes (? if you’re into that)
Is this: Stila Convertible Color
Get this: Here but go over to Sephora on your way home from work or whatnot and find the right shade for you …
Size: .15 oz
Price: $25.00

I also learned a trick from my sister-in-law, which was backed up later by Sam Chapman who is my pro makeup artist of choice these days: apply cream blush with a brush.  My SIL uses this Hourglass Finishing Brush (which is actually very dense), Sam uses this Real Techniques Stippling Brush which is a dual-fiber magic wand.
