Everyone Is Talking About Blusher. Here's Why...
How to find the right blusher for you
From finding the right shade for your skin tone to the right texture for your skin type, finding your everyday blush can be complicated. If you have drier skin, we'd recommend going for a cream or liquid blush. If your have oilier skin, a powder formula is best, or you can layer them to make sure the colour lasts all day. The key is to find something that feels easy and natural to you, and the best thing is that you can always switch it up!The Best Blushers so far in 2024
