Yes! Love it, but it is *very* pigmented, so you need to be careful to only apply a small dab of product.

I've heard it doesn't have good staying power. What was your experience PP?

Has anyone tried Glossier cloud paint yet?

Do you cream-blush-wearers apply it after foundation/tinted moisturizer? Do you layer powder on top? I'm aiming for "dewy" but not sure if that works if you're >40

Seconding MILK, also discovered through Birchbox.

I apply after BB cream & blend, blend, blend. It looks very natural.

I used the Tarte cheek stain for a while but it turned pretty hard (not at all creamy) quickly and I had to throw most of it away. If they shrank the packaging I'd imagine it was partially in response to that problem.

I apply the blush after foundation, and usually use powder as well. Unfortunately "dewy" usually translates to "shiny" on me. I have some highlighting creams I can use if I want to go all out.

Tarte PP: What color do you use? Sephora only carries Glisten and Flush online. Glisten might work for my pale skin, but they both look really bright!

I use Makeup Forever after I put on SPF moisturizer and do a T-zone dusting with good powder. I'm 51 and have preferred cream blush as I lose moisture on my cheeks.

Not as scary as it looks, easy to build or go light, and smells great!

I wish they hadn't cut the size and kept the price--I also liked the old packaging better... but that's neither here nor there.

Def. has a dewy finish--I'm 38 and it looks fresh, not shiny.

I'm 48, dry skin. I love this blush. I tried a couple of different brands of cream blush without loving them, then I got a sample of Milk brand cream blush in a Birchbox shipment and now I'm hooked. I took a look at the color (Perk) when I first got it and thought there's no way it would work for me, but it looks really natural once applied.

NARS portofino

...or gel, liquid, stain formulation. I've long worn powder blush but want to try a cream formula to wear with tinted moisturizer or bb cream. I'm sort of shine-phobic so this is new territory for me. I'm 41 with decent but not amazing skin, some fine lines around the eye area.

I'd prefer something available at Sephora. TIA.
