Hi girls, I mentioned wearing a homemade cream blush on Corallista‘s FB pic today and a couple of you were curious. Hence, this post….
My DIY obsession started with a lipcolour. You can read the story here….
To get a cream blush, I used essentially the same technique. I mixed vaseline, Lakme Rose powder and a few old lipsticks and eyeshadows. I did not add almond oil or vanilla essence to it. The final product looks like this…
This gives a nice dewy finish and lasts upto 3-4 hours… I wear it around the house on dull skinned days 🙂
Did you girls like this? Have you done any DIY in makeup?
All the time. My favorite one is making instant eye liners out of eye shadows with MAC fix plus/ELF line sealer or any makeup setting spray. good job!
@ Zara, lol… in the next janam…. in this one, i just showed you how to make your own! 🙂
Anks!!! marry mee!! i kno ul always keep me supplied with blushes…wo bhi homemade!!! 😉
@ CookDoKoo, thanks 🙂
very innovative i must say !
@ Shimmerlicious, welcome to my blog. While this will not clog pores, it will accentuate them like any other cream blush. Do you use cream blushes?
Great idea ! But hmm i wonder if it would clog my huge pores :(:(. Nice idea though for those with great problem free skin !
@ Rids, yeah… I liked it a lot…
@ Raaga, you should… it is quite easy… 🙂
Wow it has turned out to be too good
Hey wow 😀 I will try it 🙂
@ Vanity, its a great try for winters…
@ Nivedita, do that and show us the results… 🙂
@ Corallista, most welcome…. 🙂
hey this is creative. will def try this!
Wow! Nice trick! I would definitely try this one with my good lipsticks 🙂
The shade is so pretty! It reminds me of my inglot lipstick no. 61! Thanks for posting 🙂
@ Sukanya, lipsticks as a cream blush is a trick a lot of MUAs use… am following ur blog 🙂
sumtimes i use lipsticks n vaseline…an apply ad a blush 😛 :D..nice post !! please check my blog,will be glad to hv you there 🙂
@ Manya, I agree we should not use very old stuff… they can have an adverse effect. I think mine were less than two years old and were unflattering so not used at all.. but yeah, they need to be in good condition…
Woww its nice ,innovative but you mentioned of using old lipsticks,I cant use old lipsticks on my cheeks, you never know what bad effects it can have on skin.
