Best “Blushing Blush” For Dark Skin
The title of this post is not only how I feel about my current favorite blush but also is a play on words because my current favorite blush is of Clinique’s Blushing Blush line.
It seems that no matter which blush shades I choose, the color ends up looking chalky on me in bright light or too flashy in person. That, or they don’t show up at all. Darker plums are pretty but are only suitable during the cold weather season.
This is no such case when I am wearing Clinique Blushing Blush in Precious Posy. This blush looks deceiving in the pan. It looks like a bright pastel orange. But, on the skin it looks very sheer with a golden shimmer. I think it is a perfect blush for dark skin because it leaves a touch of peachy gold color that is natural rather than bright or chalky. The subtle golden shimmer adds a healthy glow to the skin, making it look as if our dark skin really is “blushing.”
Tip: Contour your cheeks with a dark bronzer and apply Precious Posy to the apples, sweeping back a bit.
