They look like small tubes of tempera paint but they’re not: we’re talking about the cutest blushes you can find on the market, perfect for painting your face just like a painter paints on canvas. Encased in aluminum packaging that is identical to acrylic paint tubes, these blushes have creamy, dense textures that are equally blendable. They squeeze out of the tube like paint, rolling up on themselves until the last drop. But their resemblance to tempera paints isn’t the only reason to love them: with a finish halfway between liquid and creamy, they’re perfect for those who want a natural yet customizable effect, without fearing the imprecisions often associated with layering other types of textures.
If you already have one in your collection, you won’t hesitate to succumb to the charm of buying another and another… where to start?
Following the success of the Oh.Sole Mio bronzer, EspressOh expands its base product range by introducing the Oh.SoleMio Blush. Inspired by the hues of sunrise and sunset in typical Italian landscapes, it’s available in four different shades: 6AM — golden pink, 7AM — bright peach, 6PM — spritzy coral, and 7PM — dusty brick. It features the same tempera-like formula as the bronzer, along with a blend of natural butters and oils that leave a silky and light finish, allowing you to intensify the shades as desired.
The perfect symbiosis of color and skincare translates into Gitti’s Everyblush, silky blushes with a light shimmer effect and ultra-pigmented promises to hydrate the skin while being applied. In addition to their bright color and liquid/creamy texture similar to tempera paints, these blushes also contain ingredients like broccoli seed oil and moss extract that nourish and pamper the skin. Furthermore, they are vegan, fragrance-free, and contain up to 96.6% natural ingredients.
A name, a program: these Glossier blushes conquered the tube blush market long ago and continue to do so day after day. Their cream texture makes them pleasant to the touch and so natural that they blend into the skin as if we were truly blushing. With quick drying and modifiable color, they blend with extreme ease. Available in 10 shades, covering all the nuances of cloud colors when they’re crossed by the rays of sunrise and sunset, they’re formulated with collagen and Blurring Powder Pigments, which give a soft-focus and imperceptible effect to the texture, not highlighting the presence of pores and expression lines.
Maybelline New York’s Cheek Heat Blushes are tube blushes with an extremely light cream-gel texture and water-based formula (which, unlike other formulations, provides an extremely natural result on the cheeks and a silky and satin finish). Available in 5 different shades, ranging in a range of mainly warm and cool nude colors – with the addition of a berry and a pink/fuchsia – they are easily modifiable and layerable depending on the intensity we want to achieve, without fear of creating unwanted spots or streaks.
Soft and creamy, One, Two, Free!’s Cheeky Glow Cream Blushes give the cheeks a touch of realistic and elegant color, keeping the skin hydrated and fresh at the same time. Their hybrid formula between makeup and skincare contains fermented green tea seed oil that replenishes the skin with hydration lost during the day and acts as a potent antioxidant helping to protect the skin from free radicals and garcinia butter, rich in essential fatty acids.
