Make-up help for blush?

So, I';m really pale and have really sensitive skin. I put on blush every morning so that I have at least some color to my face. By the end of the day, it looks like I have no blush - my skin absorbed it or something - and I am totally pale.





Of course I can apply more blush but putting on too much makeup irritates my skin. Anybody know any product or make-up application that could help this?Make-up help for blush?
To add natural color that lasts, after you wash your face in the morning, splash your face 10 times with cool (not hot or cold) water. Pat your face dry, and while skin is still damp, apply an oil-free moisturizer to your cheeks. This looks great and made my cheeks so cute and rosy. The best part is that it is totally 100% healthy for your skin. If you feel like you still need more color, try a blush stick instead of powder; it lasts longer and it is easy to blend, which means it's practically goof-proof. Good luck!Make-up help for blush?
try a light foundation and then put on the blush. it'll help the blush to stay on longer. or if you don't want to do the foundation just reapply twice or three times a day.
If you go to The Body Shop in the mall, they have makeup products that are natural and are pretty good. Have you also tried the Aveeno products-like moisturizer and cleanser-before you put your makeup on? Hope this helps you.
try cover girl they have shimmery light shades
I am the palest of pales myself and have discovered this trick:


Apply your regular liquid foundation or moisturizer, then put on your blush and a light application of face powder over it. It seals it in and makes it look like the glow is more natural. Being so pale even the light blushes look fake sometimes. Also cream style blushes work great this way and tend to stay on longer.
Moisturize first, then try double blushing. This means using a cream/gel blush, then using the same color in powder over it. A lilght hand prevents looking overblushed.





Clinique make a gel blush that lasted all day and it's sheer color, so you can build it. Don't apply powder blush on top of this, it'll be too much.
try Almay products, its hypo-allergenic
Try the mousse instead of the powder. Just use a little on a test spot for the first day if you have sensitive skin.
If you are looking for a product that will keep your makeup intact, i'd recommend





1. Shelaq by Benefit


2. Model In a Bottle (google it, they have a website)





hope this helps!
good luck... i can't help because my makeup does that too.
I had the same problem- I am very pale. I use clinique's powder blush in mocha pink- it's just the right color for pale skin and it's good makeup so it stays on all day. Expect to pay around 13 bucks, but it is worth it.
You may want to start wearing a light, sheer foundation. Foundation helps makeup to adhere to the face better so it's less likely to wear off as much. Try to buy a hypoallergenic foundation/blush so you're less likely to experience the irritation.
I agree with the other suggestions of wearing a powder foundation or a tinted moisturizer--something to give your blush a base. However I still think the best way to keep any makeup on, is to not touch your face. I know that it hard to do, but if you wipe your face with your hands throughout the day, then that is why it is coming off.
noo
With really pale skin you don't need much colour or it will look fake, the best type of blush that has staying power are the Revlon all day products. Go to your local high end drug store and have the make up counter person help you pick the right shade, if you want it to last all day buy a revlon product they're made to last all day, and amazingly they do. If you can't afford to buy new makeup try a blend of blush and transulent powder and do it twice, take off the exess with a brush each time it should help to set the blush. Be sure to moisturize before putting on your makeup and let the moisterizer set in for at least 5mins. Then do your blush, powder routine it should last all day. It works for me, at first you might feel a bit colourful, but believe me if you have the right colour it will only last (as in to bright looking) for about an hour then it wil look natural. good luck
LOreale it works great and comes in many shades!
try chanel
