01
Feeling Cheeky

Sure, it’s a snowy, freezing January, but the wintry weather has spawned a fab beauty trend: Rosy, wind-whipped cheeks! We love Jourdan Dunn’s pink blush at Michael Kors.

02
Luminous Lady

Halle Berry’s softly muted rose blush gives her complexion a luminous look.

03
Hint of a Tint

What better way to achieve the look than with Benefit’s uber-classic Benetint Lip & Cheek Stain ($28, benefitcosmetics.com)? The rose-tinted stain deepens cheeks to a natural flush.

04
Pop Life

Kelly Rowland’s bright pink cheeks lend a pop of color to her all-black ensemble. Nice!

05
Berry Pretty

Garcelle Beauvais’s crushed berry pink blush looks so pretty with her sheer lips and simple, pulled-back hairstyle.

06
Think Pink

Applied onto the apples of the cheeks, Shiseido The Makeup Accentuating Color Stick in Rosy Flush ($33, sephora.com) leaves a sheer, natural-looking flush on brown skin.

07
So Fresh, So Clean

Lala Vasquez warms up her complexion by dusting a soft, tawny-rose blush on her cheeks. Such an fresh, lovely look.

08
Radiant Rose

Zoe Saldana balances the drama of her smokey eyes and ruffled collar with a dab of rosy cream blush.

09
Haute Hearts

Use an oversized, fluffy brush to apply Physician’s Formula brand-new Happy Booster Glow & Mood Boosting Blush ($13.95, physiciansformula.com) on cheeks for a burst of glowy color.
