Personally, I prefer liquid blush over liquid foundation (or cream blush over cream foundation) for a more even texture. The best inexpensive liquid blush can be found in 3 shades at Target for $10 USD each. As you apply the blush, it mixes with your foundation for the right shade. And you only need a drop. I love Poppy (bright warm coral) and will purchase the other two, Peony (bright cool Barbie pink) and Rose (neutral rusty rose) soon.

If your complexion is the COLOR deep bronze or medium brown, get all three. You look good in almost anything. Three blushes would compliment dozens of lipsticks.

If you have blue or grey eyes stick to Peony, coolest pink.

If your complexion is ivory, tan, gold or olive stick to Poppy, the warmest. You may like Rose, but avoid Peony - yuck.

Mahoganies should try both Poppy (for burgundy/brown lipsticks) and Rose (for red lipsticks).

The darkest ebonies, with mauve undertones, should stick to Peony. Trust me. Rose is too brown and you're NOT brown, you're raisin/plum.

Careful, they also make a bronzer. I haven't tried the liquid bronzer.
