Types of Blusher
The type of blusher you use will be dependent on two things; which product is easiest for you to apply, and your individual skin type.



Powder Blusher

The most common blusher available in the market. The application is easy and powder blushers are easy to control. However, if you are experiencing dry skin, these types of blushers might be too drying for the skin.



Mineral Blusher

Mineral blushers have a highly refined texture. Hence, they are easy to apply and impart a fresh veil of translucent color, which works well for all skin types.



Cream Blusher

Cream blushers (sometime in stick form) are relatively tricky to apply and if not applied with a light hand it may appear too heavy and unnatural. The cream blusher can also be a challenge to apply as the product is more intense but if applied correctly and lightly, cream blusher can impart a natural looking colour that is long lasting too. These types of blushers are excellent for dry to normal skin.



Gel or Tint Blusher

Gel or Tint Blushers needs a lot of practice for a perfect finish. These blushers tend to dry before blending completes and may at times smudge or appear patchy.
