"In addition to my new adventures with beauty recipes (did you try the banana milkshake hair mask yet?), I&amp;#x27;ve resolved to get back to our blog roots and re-introduce what was once one of our favorite regular features: I Tried It Tuesday! (Baze, I&amp;#x27;m pouring one out for you right now ... some of my coffee, that is.) Let&amp;#x27;s start with DuWop Blush Booster, a product I&amp;#x27;ve been meaning to try approximately forever. As I recently confessed, I&amp;#x27;m a chronic over-blusher. What can I say, bright cheeks make me feel instantly pretty and alive. However, tons of makeup does not, so it&amp;#x27;s a delicate balance--to get the desired glow without layering on too much product. Thus why I found DuWop&amp;#x27;s Blush Booster intriguing--it supposedly amps up whatever blush you already use and creates &amp;quot;instant cheekbones&amp;quot; by adding a bit of contouring/shimmer. So I decided to finally try the stuff. Come on into my bathroom and watch! Here I am starting out with no blush on. I rotate several blushes but Benefit Coralista is a favorite (thanks to you guys!), and I decided to use it for this experiment. Here I am wearing my usual weekday-daytime amount of Coralista. Now for the Blush Booster! I used the shade &amp;quot;Apple&amp;quot;. {Note: You can also use this booster alone as blush, but I think it would be a bit too subtle for my taste.} It&amp;#x27;s peachy pink with slight shimmer--reminds me a lot of the famous Nars Orgasm bush, actually, only less pigmented. Here I am with a light dusting of the Booster applied to my cheeks. I&amp;#x27;m actually shocked at how much I like the results. I&amp;#x27;m not usually big on cheek shimmer, and this definitely leaves visible flecks of shimmer on the cheeks, but the effect from a few steps back is rather dramatic. My cheekbones really do pop out more, and my apples look much rosier. Now let&amp;#x27;s see if my blush lasts longer without fading--I&amp;#x27;ll update you tonight in the comments below! Now, although I&amp;#x27;ll definitely keep using this stuff, it does seem a bit redundant, at least for a low-maintenance makeup person like myself. It would probably be pretty easy to &amp;quot;boost&amp;quot; my blush by layering on more and just adding shimmer to my cheekbones using something I already have in my arsenal, like Nars Orgasm the Multiple. However, that would also probably feel like more makeup than I usually like to wear, while the Booster doesn&amp;#x27;t add any &amp;quot;weight&amp;quot; to my makeup--it wears very light and easy. Conclusion: I&amp;#x27;d probably go buy this again if I went out more/wore more makeup on a regular basis. I think a lot of you would love it, though, so definitely try it on next time you have the chance! Have any of you tried this blush booster? Do you find the concept intriguing or kind of silly?
