Blush isn't Scary

"Blush isn't scary."  That's something I had to keep reminding myself of over the past few months.  Since I have so much rosacea on my cheeks, that scared me away from wearing blush for years.  It always took so much work to cover the redness, the last thing I wanted to do was put color back on my face.  So recently, I'd been struggling to find a color that worked with my complex and wasn't overwhelming.  I first started with a few pink blushes, particularly NYX's Peach (which really is pink, despite the name lol) and blush in Elf's Contouring Blush & Bronzer.  And while both were beautiful colors, I wasn't really thrilled with either.  Then one day at Target, I came across the Milani Baked Blush and picked up No. 5 Luminoso.  This has quickly become my favorite every-day blush.  I love the soft peach glow it gives.  It has a slight shimmer, but no noticeable chunks of glitter.  It's very pigmented, but blends out beautifully.  I wouldn't have thought to jump to a peach blush right away, but every day I'm shocked at the natural glow it gives.  This color has quickly become a staple in my every day makeup. It's definitely worth checking out!
