Find the Perfect Blush for Your Skin Type

Share
Gone are the days when women stuck to one color blusher usually pinks or peaches. Now days, blushers come in a whole new variety of colors and different formulations. There are vast array of clever new formulas. The main choices are traditional powder, a cream texture, a modern liquid or a gel finish. So there is certainly one out there to suit your skin type.

Powder blush is the easiest to use. If you prefer this type, choose one that isn't too sparkly or it'll enhance your wrinkles. Shimmery blushers are far kinder to mature skin as they diffuse fine lines, making the delicate skin around your cheeks look younger. And as your skin feels drier as you get older, you could also try moisturizing cream formula that gives a flattering sheen to your skin.

All Skin Types
Right type: LIQUID CHEEK STAINS
Reason: They're excellent for all skin types and face shapes, as you can use a little to achieve a natural flush of color, or layer to build up the shading to an intense hue that will last all through the day.

How to apply: They work best on bare cheeks and need to be applied quickly to avoid mistakes. Apply powder blusher over cheek stains for ultimate staying powder.

Daily Fashionistas Recommend:

100% Pure Lip and Cheek Tint Strawberry

100% Pure Lip and Cheek Tint Strawberry



100% Pure Lip and Cheek Tint Cocoa Berry

100% Pure Lip and Cheek Tint Cocoa Berry



Dry or Combination Skin
Right type: CREAM
Reason: Cream blusher is the best if you have dry to combination skin as there's no powder to sit on your dry patches. Also, the texture helps your skin maintain a natural , luminous glow.

How to apply: It's easy to apply on bare skin or over foundation. If you have a round face don't shade apples of your cheek instead apply it on your cheekbones, slanting towards your temples.



Oily Skin
Right type: POWDER
Reason: It's classic, and perfect for achieving dense color coverage. It's the best texture for contouring your cheekbones, and is ideal for oily skin as it lies well on your skin's surface and reduces shine.

How to apply: Sweep on to your cheeks in a croissant shape for a natural - looking flush.

Mature Skin
Right type: GEL OR MOUSSE
Reason: Mousse and gel formulas are great for mature skins and if you want a subtle result. They can be worn alone on bare skin or layered over foundation, before powder, and are less fiddy to use than liquid stains. All mousse formulas offer pretty velvety finish and are really smooth to apply.

How to apply: When putting on gel or mousse blusher, tap it gently on to your cheeks and blend upwards and outwards with your fingertips. But don't apply it on top of your make- up as you will not be able to blend it.

If I weren’t a fashionista, I’d be...a doggy day spa owner.
When I need to relax, I...walk around the beautiful lake near my home.

The trait I love most in myself is...my willingness to learn and grow.

When I’m online, I always check out...the latest trends.

The paparazzi should love me because...I'm friendly and usually camera ready.

I can’t go into Diavolina, Planet Blue, Bleu or Sydney Michelle without maxing out my credit card!

My favorite style secret is...not trying too hard.

I can’t leave the house without...my One October Bag containing my lipstick, iPhone and debit/credit card.

My favorite celeb style...ranges from_Alexa Cheung, Kate Moss, Natalie Portman, Nicole Ritchie, Penelope Cruz. classic style with some edge to it.

In 10 years, I will be...traveling the world for inspiration and designing a new collection for ONE OCTOBER  I will also be surrounded by what I love most, my family and friends.

More about ONE OCTOBER:

Naomi Stokeld, Roxana Zal, and Adrienne Weller are the driving force behind handbag and accessories line, ONE OCTOBER. The goal of ONE OCTOBER is to create designs that are classic and timeless but with an edge.

Naomi was born in Santa Cruz, California and grew up in Latin America. While living in Chile, she became an attorney but always had an eye for fashion and new trends. In Chile she discovered the superior qualities and unique beauty of salmon leather. She recognized the untapped potential of the salmon leather in the fashion market and contacted Roxana, her husband's cousin, to help her vision reach fruition.

Roxana was born in Malibu, California. A successful actress for most of her life, she has always been drawn to fashion in front of and behind the camera. Between filming she started designing and doing PR for fashion companies. While maintaining her acting career, she spent more time designing, styling, and working in the fashion industry and found a unique fulfillment to her creative drive.

Adrienne grew up in New Zealand, and was always inspired by fashion. After spending time in Italy for university she moved to Los Angeles and started her own clothing line that sold at boutiques such as Fred Segal and Patricia Field. After a few years costume designing and styling, she had segued into PR, but was eager to get back to fashion. She and Roxana met through a friend in Sydney and worked together in the fashion industry, which led to them becoming fast friends.

Naomi and Roxana approached her to combine their talents, expertise, and resources, and ONE OCTOBER was created.

Share
It's not doubt that Siobhan Magnus has a unique look, but does her uniqueness make her a fashionista or does is her style a fashion faux-pas? Siobhan Magnus is a fashion daredevil. Every week she surprises us with a totally original ensemble, and every week she impresses us.  Yes, some of her choices are quite risquĂ©...like wearing combat boots with a black cocktail dress, but are we just critical because we don't have the guts to go out in public like that?  Siobhan, the Daily Fashionistas give you a ton of credit for your fearless attitude towards fashion, and we look forward to being amazed by your outfit choices once again next week.


Here at Daily Fashionistas, we want your thoughts on Siobhan's style!
