Ever since I started toying around with cream blush about a year ago, I've been hooked. I'm not really into anything too shimmery — I like to leave that to the more spreadable
luminizers — but I've been having a field day with pinky-brown tones like
By Terry's Rose de Rose Sheer Liquid Blush in Fresh Rose that I told you about earlier in the week. Each of these items leaves my face looking flushed, hydrated and even a little dewy in a natural way.

Below are my top five favorite lip gloss options for sultry, sex-kitten lips. These pale pinks and peaches (sans shimmer, glitter or any kind of opalescence for that matter) cool down the natural flesh tone of your lips to an icy finish and look the hottest when paired with a
smoky eye. Which of your lip glosses makes you feel the sexiest.

Those of you who love Benefit's cult-favorite lip and cheek stain, Benetint, will be excited to know about a forthcoming product called
Posietint ($28). It's launching in June, but if you're a Sephora Beauty Insider, you'll have a chance to buy it beforehand. (Sign up at Sephora to be notified when it's available.)
Like its big sister Benetint, Posietint is a liquid stain that goes on with a brush.

There's something about peach lip gloss that is universally flattering (but especially on
blue-eyed beauties). The challenge is to find the right balance between coral and pink tones.
Kate Hudson wore a frosty coral-peach-colored lipstick to the
London premiere of Fool's Gold and just look at how it warms up her skin.

It was only a matter of time before Benefit expanded its line of loose shimmer powders. First came the highly pigmented, bright
Show Offs! eye shadows. And now, there's a line of sheer, shimmery powders for the eyes and face called
Lust Dusters ($18).
The colors blend well, they are definitely shimmery and it's nice that you can use them as highlighters to your cheeks, nose, and décolletage.
