7 Blushes That Make Life Better
Fact: We all look better with a little blush. Adding that flush of color to the cheeks just makes every complexion seem a little bit healthier and more fresh-faced. When you haven't gotten enough sleep or you're just not feeling 100 percent, blush is the secret weapon that ensures no one's the wiser. Stick one of these seven glow-getters in your makeup bag, and you'll be ready for anything.
Best Natural Pick
This cream blush is made with organic and natural ingredients and is cruelty-and gluten-free. Even better, it works just as well on lips in a pinch as it does on cheeks.
Best Stick
When you're looking for a sheer wash of color, at a ridiculously reasonable price, reach for this handy tube that can basically travel anywhere with you. The cream-to-powder formula imparts a hint of tint.
Best Drugstore Deal
We love that there are 15 shades in this tried-and-true range, meaning you're bound to find one that gives you that perfect, natural-looking flush.
Best Cream
Super blendable, this lightweight cream melts into skin, giving you a lit-from-within glow. It's also easy to build, allowing you to go from a natural to dramatic flush, depending on your mood.
Best for Sensitive Skin
This mineral-based product is gentle enough for even easily irritated complexions. Another plus to minerals: They provide sheer, long-lasting color.
Best Longwear
So you may not actually be diving into the pool, but there are certain times (like the dog days of summer) when sweat-proof makeup is a must. The silicone-coated pigments in this powder formula are in it for the long haul.
Best Anti-Aging
You might confuse this silky blush with a skincare treatment, seeing as it's loaded with free radical-fighting antioxidants, such as vitamins C and E, to help keep fine lines at bay.
