Blush doesn't get enough credit. Everyone always says mascara is the most important product in a makeup routine, but I firmly believe that it's tied evenly with blush. (Beyoncé's makeup artist Sir John agrees with me, just FYI.)
A quick swipe of blush goes a long way in transforming your entire look. It can help you appear more awake, youthful, and healthy. Without it, makeup can look flat or wash you out. While there are plenty of great powder options out there, gel and cream formulas are by far my favourite because they're easiest to blend and give your cheeks a real natural touch of colour. The one product that takes this effect to a whole new level? The Freck Beauty Cheekslime.
