Best New Blushes
Published Nov 12, 2011
As autumn turns into winter, now is the ideal time to switch your blush products. The nippy temperatures create a natural flush that you can build on with a simple sheer tint. Plus, the rich bronzers and bright rouges you were applying in the summer won't work as well on your fading complexion. Check out our must-have picks in the newest blushes released this season.
Light to Medium Complexion
1 Les Tissages de Chanel Blush Duo Tweed Effect
Chanel's latest rouge in the brand's shimmering blush duos, Brun Rosé, is a rosy color with lots of sparkle. The sheer hue has a hint of peach and will work best on fair to medium skin tones.
2 Tom Ford Beauty Cheek Color
For those Beauties looking for a delicate, ballerina-inspired hue, opt for Tom Ford's new blush in Frantic Pink. The glistening shade will add a light just-pinched effect on fair complexions.
