Don’t Worry, Be Blushed!
Choosing the right blush can not only compliment your skin tone but evoke a look of innocence, sensuality, and emotion. The power of pinks can evoke playfulness, coyness, and innocence, but they can also be bold and fresh. The universally flattering peach guarantees a sexy flush and can wake up tired looking skin. I like to dab a bit of moisturizer on the apples of the cheeks to give a look of radiance. Beware of color overload - blush should enhance your skin's complexion. They should be well-chosen and carefully blended. For younger girls, such as my friend and beauty Amanda Bynes, applying the blush to the apples of the cheeks will create a fresh natural flush. Women over thirty should keep the blush to the upper apples of the cheeks as colors in the middle of the face can look heavy and drag down the face. Proper placement of highlighter is important to enhance a natural flush and glow to the skin. A cream, liquid, or gel blush can keep a fake tan from looking dull or flat. A berry stain works well for medium to darker skin tones. Whether you're creating a look day or night, your blush should look natural and radiant.

Hi troy,
Since you are a great photographer, Im looking into buying a professional camera, can you suggest some cameras that you think would be great especially for a beginner like me?
thanx troy
Hi Troy,
Love your site! Thank you for advice that is practical yet glamourous!!! Truly thank you!
How do you feel about the By Terry line? Especially the cream blush? I find that while the colour is great on me it does last.
In general which is better powder or cream?
