One month with Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cream Blush
With their ‘blendability‘ and sheer finishes, cream blushes (when applied correctly) can give you a glowy, slightly dewy natural looking flush of color on cheeks that powder blushes struggle to match. Plus they don’t settle into pores or fine lines.
One cream blusher, in particular, has made us blush: Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cream Blush.
First, it’s a skin-loving cream blush.
The exclusive skin-caring Ceramide Triple Complex technology and potent cocktail of Vitamins A, C and E give your skin a boost of nutrients throughout the day and impart a healthy glow while providing anti-aging benefits.
It visibly lifts and contours the look of cheeks, delivers feather-light moisture and nourishes skin.
The formula is oil-free which means it doesn’t clog pores.
Second, it glides on beautifully.
Hydrating but not heavy or sticky, we’re in love with the way Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cream Blush evens texture – like real-life Photoshop of sorts. Soft and lightweight, the silky smooth cream seems to melt into the skin. It is housed in a sleek mirrored compact and goes on opaque but blends exceptionally well to a sheer, dewy finish.
Third, it deposits just the right amount of color.
It comes in four universally flattering shades (Nectar, Plum, Pink, and Honey) that work on every skin tone, and imparts a subtly natural flush to the skin. It can be worn as a slight tint or built up a few degrees to a deeper tone. The subtle hint of translucent color – just bright and natural enough to perk up a dull complexion without looking clownish – had us completely hooked.
Plus, you look effortlessly flawless.
One of the great things about this cream blush is that the application is effortless. Just dab a small amount directly onto the apples of your cheeks with your fingertips (we prefer that method to a sponge) and blend it out for a diffused, youthful look.
This cream blush can also be blended into bare, moisturized skin for a flawless “I-just-woke-up-like-this” kind of flush.
This bush crush might turn into an everlasting love.
How to use Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cream Blush?
Apply cream blush with fingertips or a sponge after foundation and before powder for easier blending. Start by dotting on, then smooth into tiny circles until it is blended into the skin. Add more dabs to build color intensity as necessary.
