I wasn’t a huge fan of her liquid blushes so I think these make up for it....I fell in LOVE with this product as soon as I saw it in stores. The liquid blushes are of course gorgeous, but these new shades provide what the liquid blushes didn't.
What it is: A breakthrough, mistake-proof, liquid-like cream blush that melts into a second skin for the most natural-looking wash of soft-focus color.
Ingredient Callouts: Free of parabens, formaldehydes, formaldehyde-releasing agents, phthalates, mineral oil, and sulfates SLS & SLES. It is also cruelty-free.
What Else You Need to Know: This first-of-its-kind water-resistant blush combines pigments with a non-greasy blend of weightless oils and spherical powders for a natural flush you can’t mess up. The ultralightweight, liquid-like cream melts on contact and blends to a smooth, satin finish that won’t cake, crease, or clog pores.
