    actually, i would dab a little cactus flower on my lips, and top off with a clear lip balm. if not, tinted lip conditioner in gentle coral?

    i would also suggest nivea a kiss of flavor in strawberry – it leaves a nice orange-red tint.

      that’s sounds like an awesome idea. I’ll have to check this out again next time I’m at Sephora. Why don’t I use my cream blush as a lip stain more often? Thanks for the reminder!!

      I agree, I think this blush would look amazing as a lip colour too!

    Ooooh, gorgeous! I can see a lot of different colors working well with Cactus Flower. I’d probably try something like Laura Mercier Rosewater or Peach Sorbet first.

    I would just use a clear balm (because I like wearing one color makeup at a time…)

    What a lovely coloured blush. I would probably do some kind of “my lips but better” colour with this.

    That’s a Yummy blush! Now i want it you’ve awakened the monster lol. I’d wear it like i do with Nars blush in exhibit a. I’d use it as a fresh pop of color on my cheeks with a clear lip gloss and tons of mascara. Very fresh looking:)

    A light pinky peach lip gloss. something that compliments the blush, but doesn’t compete with it.

    I would use a very light hand and wear MAC Double Dare gloss with this – I’m wearing NARS Lokoum with the said gloss today. Love that I don’t need a liner with it! I would keep my eyes neutral.

    I have this one and just love it. I would use Chanel’s Leopard (Don’t you have this one?)
    or the PortoRotondo or Muse or Rich Coral. It is too bad that Papparazzi was discontinued because this would have been a perfect match. I just love cream blushes. Stila’s convertibles are creamy, too. The colors are also lovely. Louise

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
