tartemaracuja juicy blush

I am in my early 50s and have studied the trending makeup looks for more "mature" women. Less is more, excellent skin care, and cream-based products are all recommended. I'm a fan of Tarte cosmetics anyway, so I was excited to try the Maracuja Juicy Cream Blush in Rose. Until now, I have always used a powder blush, applied with a brush. I have a medium skin tone, not fair but not super tan, with gold undertones. This also changes from summer to winter, as I tend to be much more tan in summer. This shade is a perfect medium pink that gives a flushed glow, not too light and not too deep, and I think it would work for just about any skin tone. The consistency is creamy soft, so I run my fingertip (as opposed to a brush) lightly across the top to get a small amount to start with. I dab the cream on one cheek at a time, tapping lightly until blended. This is definitely buildable coverage, so you can use a little on your cheeks, nose, and forehead for a sun-kissed effect or a little more on your cheeks for work or evening. I love that it feels light and gives my skin a fresh look. I definitely try to stay away from makeup that appears thick and caked on, which settles into fine lines. I work full time and pretty much wear makeup 7 days a week, and one compact lasts me about 5 months. For travel and on-the-go, the cream blush can double as lip color. If I had to name a con, it would be that the cream doesn't dry immediately, especially the more you build on your cheeks. But, that's also what gives your face a dewy appearance and younger looking glow. This has by far become my go-to cheek color product and the shade compliments my skin tone year-round.

Cannot believe this is not as popular as other blushes. The pretty red, but also adjust based on your skin pH, and very pigmented. I didn’t wear make up, just this blush on my bare face and it lasted for 10 hours

LOVE this blush from my favorite cosmetics brand. I love everything in Tarte. It is the best quality and great for your skin. Also, fast shipping from this vendor was just fabulous!

The description does not make it clear cream or powder. However, I’ll try it. The color is gorgeous.

Lovely texture and color (honeysuckle). A tiny amount goes a long way, and it blends beautifully on bare skin or over primer/foundation. I'm not sure that it shifts color much, but it looks very natural.

Can’t remember the name but it’s the brownish purple one. Color is very nice. I love these maracuja blushes- have several shades. I wear moisturizer and oils and the blush has major color pay off and just glides right on my face. Highly recommend Tarte maracuja blushes!! I’m light skinned if that helps.

Very pigmented but does burn so not right for me

Smooth, easy to apply, long-lasting, VERY bright, so a little goes a long way. It really gives that natural-looking, "I-was-just-running-around-outside" cheek flush. Recommended
