I am a woman of color, and in my country, me and my people, we are minority.

I think women of color are often scared of blush because many of us dont blush naturally, so were concerned with looking overly-done.

However, my hope is that this post takes the guess -work out of choosing blushes that complement deeper skin tones.

I steer clear of bright pinks as oftentimes they sit on the skin and look a bit chalky.

Mostly, however, lightbright pinks simply dont show up on my skin.

I use blushes to add warmth and dimension to my face so these deeper and golden hues are the way to go.

Its highly pigmented and looks glorious on deeper skin tones.

Even better, its super cheap and available at any drusgstore where Black Radiance is sold.

Just trust that if celebrity Makeup Artist, Sam Fine, hails it as THE blush for women of color, you need it in your collection.

They are ridiculously pigmented and retail for only 7.95 each.

I purchased the entire collection one day when they went on sale for 50 off.

While almost every single blush in the collection would complement deeper skin tones, in the essence of brevity I opted for two that I use most frequently.

Alluring is a gorgeous, matte, berry-red shade I cant live without.

I was looking for a dupe for Nars Exhibit A Blush, and somehow stumbled upon Radiant as a possible dupe.

I purchased it, took it to the local Sephora to compare it to Exhibit A, and indeed, it is a dupe Its a DEEP orange, almost red, shade that is a staple in my collection.

When I tell you this blush is LIFE, and gives a radiant sheenwarmthsparkle like no other ( well, almost, keep reading for more), I speak nothing but the whole truth.

The difference here is that Red Vino has golden sparkle whereas Love thing as a silver sparkle.

In fact, for my drugstore makeup divas, the Milani Baked blushes get an A from me.

Its the Cover girl Queen Collection Bronzer in Ebony Bronze, and it can totally double as a blush.

Just looking at it you may not be able to see it, but trust me when I tell you this deep warm brown is gorgeous on deeper skin and is a nice Warm up to experimenting with blushes.
