Hello Gorgeous! Have you been wondering which blush to try next? I have a recommendation.

Cream blush for summer?

Blush hasn’t always been the focus of my beauty obsessions - and certainly not during the sweaty summer months. So you can imagine how surprised I was to discover that I sorta kinda really don’t want to live without Makeup by Mario Soft Pop Plumping Blush Veil.

What I love about this blush:

Powder blush can be hit or miss during the summertime — especially for faces that have been through 40 or more summers. Here’s why. Powder blush can settle into creases and laugh lines and leave you with an uneven and sometimes unflattering effect. Powder or gel blushes can be much more forgiving, though you have to apply with a lighter hand to avoid odd spots of color.
