revlon cream blush and sigma make duo fiber brush

revlon cream blush in berry flirtatious. i bought it a year or so ago when it was marked down. nowadays i don't buy things unless they're marked down. smart consumer! :)

it's my first cream blush so i don't know how it compares to others. i love the color but the application just didn't look right. i don't have cream blush brush so i used my fingers. i blame the product and my application skill. this blush stayed deep inside my drawer and hasn't been touched for a while.

until i saw a makeup tutorial on youtube (forgot which one, it's a while ago...) that shows applying cream blush with a duo fiber brush. so i teamed it up with my brush by sigma! not only it's good for applying liquid foundation (imo it's better than foundation brush!) it's also good for cream blush! this is my favorite brush!

cream brush + duo fiber brush. they are the perfect partners!

minimal look

one of the looks of last week. sporting the combination of this perfect partner on my cheeks. though it's barely visible in the pic, i really love the flush of color.

i kept makeup minimal due to my dry and dehydrated skin. i thought i'm having dry skin syndrom but some pointed out it's dehydrated. ok, i can't tell if it's dry or dehydrated so i use both terms. :p

i look more tired without eyeliners. maybe it's because i'm used to tightlining top eyeliner for too long and i'm not used to it when there's nothing there.

on my lips, silk natural lipstick in nectar.

cynthiaI know the Sigma SS187 brush can use for stippling with foundation and I did it once only and wasn't too crazy of it and I don't want to out use this brush. The only time I use this brush is when applying blush on apple of my cheeks. I like to apply my foundation with a sponge cause it gives me a better coverage than the brushes.

@linda, you are good with the brush numbers! no matter how hard i try i just can't remember... lol!

@cynthia, i used to treat my brushes preciously. now i abuse them! if they're good they will remain good for very long time. i use sponge when i need more coverage and the duo fiber brush for lighter coverage. do you like applying with foundation brush? or just sponge?

CynthiaI like to just use a sponge. I feel that sponge gives me a good overall coverage without any streak marks from the brushes or sometimes when stippling with my brushes it kinda irritates my skin.
