The name of my blog–perhaps not reflected upon quite enough–was intended to pay homage to the makeup trends of the past… the very stepping stones to modern day makeup artistry. The mothers of my generation wore “rouge”, and their teenaged Generation X daughters wouldn’t dream of touching the stuff… at least until now.
Spring 2011 has me totally enamored by cream-based cheek color launches. Not one is actually called “rouge”, but let’s call a spade a spade, right?
MAC Cremeblend Blush launched on March 3rd. The collection includes a range of pinks, peaches and mauves that are universally flattering and will have you thinking that maybe, just maybe, Mom wasn’t so hopelessly clueless after all. The finish is youthful and dewy, and the color can be subtle or intense, all depending on how you apply it!
I love MACs application of the product on this model. The creative use of MAC Cremeblend highlights the fact that rouge can be used in a creative, modern way. Her entire face has an ombre appearance!
Retail price is $19.50.
