Review of Yves Saint Laurent CRÈME DE BLUSH - Soft Blush 6 Rouge

Customer Ratings:

Very nice blush, I like how light it is and blends very easily. It is not overbearing at all! The product I received was nice but someone had messed with the inside of it. Did not like that at all.... This is a nice product and I recommend it. Unfortunately, I would probably buy it at the store and not online because of the fingernail being pushed into it...

Yes, this color looks pretty shocking in the package. That's because it makes no apologies for having a strong pigment in a color that will make your cheeks sing.

Among other things, I'm a former makeup artist i.e. lover of all colors and even I was a little taken aback by this one at first. But there's a good reason why this blush has won awards. Goes on like silk and takes just a tiny, tiny bit to achieve a very natural effect. I use a MAC 192 stiff bristled synthetic brush to assist in applying it. Barely tap the brush onto to creme blush, working the brush backwards (bristles pointed to nose/handle towards ear) start at the base of the apple of the cheek and with one stroke sweep upwards toward the earlobe. With fingertips or a natural bristled soft brush sweep color upwards and towards the center of the face.

You've seen that Hollywood look where the woman has that perfect set of radiant apricot lips and cheeks... a look done to the nines by women like Jennifer Lopez and Kate Winslet? Well, now you know the secret Voila! perfectly blushed.

This might be one for the faint of heart to try first at a makeup counter or someplace like Sephora. Divas can hit the "buy with one click" now.
