Blushing Beauty

Remember when a cheek stain was the craziest thing you could ever imagine using as a blush? No longer are you limited to just choosing between a powder or a creme blush. There are now stains, gels, sticks, and even stamps available for your very own blushing pleasure.
Benefit Benetint was one of my very first purchases from Sephora. I thought, "Wow! A blush that looks like nail polish, now this, I gotta try!" Benetint was originally concocted for an exotic dancer, which for some reason I find hilarious. Click on the link below for the full story behind the brand. It's worth it!

For those of you who love the Benetint stain, there is also an on-the-go version. The Benefit Pocketpal has a gloss on one end and and Benetint on the other.

Avon Mark. Just Pinched Instant Blush Tint is a cheek color stick that is a very affordable $6! If you are not sure about switching from your traditional powder blush, then try this out first.
Smashbox O-Glow Microcirculating Cheek Color with Goji Berry-C Complex is a tube of a clear gel that changes color when it reacts with the skin. The Goji Berry-C apparently stimulates microcirculation to turn the exact color that you would blush naturally. Actually they say that it is "The first intuitive blush, this clear gel reacts with your personal skin chemistry to turn cheeks the exact color you blush, naturally in just seconds!" It turned hot pink on my finger. Does that mean that I blush hot pink?
Lorac Cheek Stamp is a blush that is applied with a stamp delivery system. As a child I always loved playing with stamps, stickers, and of course makeup. (Some of you that know me may be laughing right now because you know that I still love those things...) I also think this would make an adorable gift.
