I'm Asian with golden skin tone so I'm hoping a couple of these intensity driven products will work for me. I was so tempted to order sight unseen but thanks to you, I will be patient and test them at the counter first, whenever they hit Denver.

From what I've seen so far, I have the feeling the cream blushes might be too intense for me especially if they can't be sheered out easily. I'm a huge fan of cream blush and love the ones I've worn by Bobbi Brown, Edward Bess, Le Métier de Beauté, and Chantecaille. They are so easy to blend outEileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01591893495803781535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-7012048109839741882013-06-14T20:17:52.134-04:002013-06-14T20:17:52.134-04:00I saw these somewhere on line, maybe Nordstrom?

That shade of pink looks beautiful, I wonder how the other shades would look on my light-med skin? <br /><br />Have you seen Dior's new creme blushes? **swoon** I picked up two - Panama and Pareo.

I'm sure the Chanel reps in San Antonio were shocked when these arrived on their counter since a week ago they were telling me that not only did Chanel not make creme blush, they had received no literature that they ever would.
