Blush lover that I am I get so excited trying new brands of blush and colors. I’ll put ANYTHING on my cheeks (no jokes please) because I love trying out blush colors so much. The thing I never expected is a blush stain. It’s a totally new idea in a powder form and it LASTS like no other. All darn day and into the night!

I love it when a company gives us a new take on a popular staple like blush.

I think blush is so important because it makes us all look way more lively than we do without it. I look kind of dead in the face without blush. I need some color! Take a look at the swatches of Pretty in Peony and Magical in Mauve on my skin.

Look at the sexy shimmer especially in Pretty in Peony. Remember to click on a picture if you’d like to see it bigger!

As if that wasn’t enough let me briefly tell you about THE BRUSH. The French Boutique Blush Brush is the softest blush brush that I have. It’s light as air and makes applying blush so easy!  I love the angled shape. I’m trying to be light-hearted here but I’ll tell you right now you’d have to pry this out of my cold dead hand basically to get it away from me. Because I constantly use this brush every day now. I love it.

I first came across It Cosmetics on QVC. You can take a look at all their products there (check out the video presentations of products you are interested in) or on www.itcosmetics.com. I have two other posts you can take a look at also. The Pretty in Amber Eye Trio is one of my favorites as well as the Vitality Lip Flush Trio which is about as amazing on my lips as these two blushes are on my cheeks! Vitality is a good word to use for these products because they all just make my face full of complementary color and brighter. I like that!
