Recommend a blusher to stop me looking like a Kewpie doll, please

[AlistairSim]

Ok, I am very pale (but not interesting), blonde hair and blue eyes (I'm such a stereotype) and I look like one of those creepy dolls when I wear much more than lip gloss. I need help.

Can anyone recommend a blusher that will make me look delightfully flushed?

Gettable from Boots would be a huge advantage.

I thank you.

has your Boots a Benefit counter?

go and ask them and get them to show you how to do it

No Benefit here...not much of anything really. Think the locals still use lead and beetroot.

I need a wonder product that will magically transform me into something akin to human.

Any ideas?

no 7 usually pretty good - do you want something that is more tawny might be better ?
have had soft apricot which was good - very subtle

or the cream one in clove or rosebud looks like it'd be natural

if you were near a stila counter would recommend either hint or fade depending on if you want peachy/rosy toned

We do have No7 here! Hooray!

I think I like the sound of something tawny, rosy stuff which I think should suit me...erm...doesn't.

Will give it a go, thanks.

Nars Orgasm is meant to be v good, although I found it a bit too shimmery for me. I quite like Boots Natural Collection blushers and they are only about £1.50!

Nars? MAC?

That's only a tiny step away from Boden and riding lessons.

I'm not sure I dare.

Invest in a good blusher brush, if you haven't already got one.

You could also try Laura Mercier- there are a couple of pale is shhades- or my fave for ages has been fawn by Prescriptives- I am VERY pale.
