Now that it’s nearly Summer, it’s time to update your look to keep you looking young, fresh and flawless! Here are seven of the top blushes around at the moment, and which is the best for you!

1. NARS Blush …

Price: $25 at Amazon.com
Description: A soft, sheer pressed powder blush. NARS Blush offers a range of translucent, natural shades, each with a subtle pink for natural blush undertone, created to highlight the complexion
My Comment: This blush comes in several shades, all with a slight gold sparkle to them. This makes your skin glimmer and in turn leads to a perfect peachy glow and slimmer looking cheeks. “Orgasm” is a gorgeous shade, that will suit everybody, no matter what’s the tone of your skin, and what’s the color of your eyes and your hair.  It’s universally gorgeous on everybody, so if you’ve never wore a blush before, you’ll definitely get the right shade if you go with NARS blush in “Orgasm”!

And don’t you just love the name?  It implies … well, you know what it implies :)  BTW, speaking about funny blush names, have you seen this video from Only in a Woman’s World?  Isn’t it something? :)

2. Powder Blush Compact by Clarins …

Price: $29.50 at Amazon.com
Description: To enhance the beauty of the complexion with transparent results, blush is the perfect final make-up touch. A compact powder texture and subtle, natural-looking shades help highlight and sculpt the face while enlivening the skin’s natural radiance.
My Comment: The texture of this is simply divine, and it brings a gorgeous radiance to the skin as soon as it is applied. It comes in several shades, including the universally used “Sienna”, and can even be blended under the eyes to take away bags and other flaws. Definitely worth a test!

3. DiorBlush by Dior …

Price: $39 at Amazon.com

Description: A compact containing two complimentary blush shades.

My Comment: This is the start of a new generation of blushes, with two shades that can be blended together or applied separately for two different looks. The colours are very chic, and blend well on the skin to produce a radiant, flawless look. Try the pink/beige combo for a totally fresh look.

4. Feel Naturale Light Softening Blush by L’Oreal …

Price: $22.10 at Amazon.com

Description: A micro jet mailed powder that brushes on easily never streaks. Jet-milled, micro-fine formula glides on easily, blends, edgelessly. Wears beautifully without caking or streaking.

My Comment: This blush is the best for giving a perfect, flawless sheen to skin, no matter what condition it is in. It blends well, and looks radiant even in photographs, but the colours are quite samey and it needs reapplying frequently.
