Sometimes blusher gets sidelined by beauty consumers: After all, a scarlet lipstick makes a louder, smarter, sharper make-up statement. A glistening eyeshadow gives a more glamorous, glossy look. But I think we’ve got this wrong. My desert island beauty product would be blusher. And I think yours should be, too.
Because if our eyes are the windows to our soul, it is our cheeks that reveal the truth in our heart. Flushed with love? Desire? Delight? Exuberant? Exhilarated? Afraid? No other body part so openly discloses our feelings. Flushed cheeks are — to me — vitality, life force and beauty defined.
