Tempting Cheek Tints Monday 2nd April 2007 by Elizabeth Richards
There’s nothing quite like the first Spring sunbeams to lift spirits and enliven dull lifeless skin but if you’re still shaking off the final throes of winter you could probably do with a helping hand to get you looking fit and healthy in time for Easter.
Whether you’re a runway model, an A-list superstar or an ordinary mum on the school run, take five minutes out to enjoy our delicious selection of this season’s hottest cheek tints in soft mousses, velvety powders and multipurpose sticks and stains: all guaranteed to impart the perfect glow for instant radiance, youthfulness and style.
Apply sparingly, blend well and remember to continue the colour into the hairline for the most natural look.
Pout Flush Blush, £20
Packaged in a neat little stick that’s great for stashing in your handbag, glove box or jacket pocket, this soft creamy cheek colour blends easily to give this season’s sheer dewy look in an instant while the oil-free formula is perfect for even the most problematic of skin.

Paul & Joe Facecolour Powder, £13.50
Open up this sweet little mirrored compact and you’ll find a disc of silky smooth pearlised powder that works as beautifully on eyelids as it does on cheeks and stays firmly in place all day. Moisturising extracts of marigold, white lily and sunflower make this formula especially fabulous for dry skins.

Stila Rouge Pots, £14
If the teeny-tiny glass pot isn’t enough to tempt you, one look at the air-whipped formula and array of intensely flattering colours is bound to have you hooked on this much-coveted product. Simply apply a miniscule amount and blend in a circular motion for sheer natural colour.

Clinique Touch Blush, £14.50
For a quick boost of colour, blend a miniature dab of this weightless mousse onto skin where it’ll magically transform into a soft powder to deliver non-streaking and totally natural looking results. Being oil-free it won’t clog pores and is available in an array of shades to flatter any skin tone.

Origins Pinch Your Cheeks, £11
A couple of tiny dots blended quickly onto skins will give a natural rosy glow with none of the redness associated with old-fashioned cheek colours so if you’re pale skinned this sheer formula is ideal. And who could resist such gorgeous packaging!
