You've got to admit that as much as you used to dread holiday get-togethers as a kid because your Aunt Millie wouldn't quit pinching your cheeks, she never failed to give your face some fabulous color. But now that you're old enough to appreciate a rosy glow and your relatives have ceased fussing and cooing over you, you have to resort to cosmetics to get that same natural flush... unless of course you'd rather stand outside in the cold and let Jack Frost nip at your cheeks for awhile. Pain doesn't have to equal beauty, though, and since the winter season's cold weather really likes to dry out your skin, opt for a cream or gel blush (as opposed to powder) to get that tickled-pink look without drying out your face. The key to natural-looking rosiness is to stick with a non-waxy formula -- like this sheer multipurpose stick from Nars or Maybelline's lightweight cream -- for ultimate blendability that will still let your skin breathe beneath the color. Check out the slideshow for the selection of my favorite winter-friendly blushes!
