(*Introduction: Please note that this blog was written before my husband passed away.)

The best blush makeup for Asian women is the Bronzing Stones bronzer by Yves Saint Laurent. Normally, I don’t wear cheek colors. I don’t wear a blush because I look better without it. I tried many types of blush makeups but did not like how they looked on me for I looked like a porcelain doll. The blush stood out on my face, which made my face look unnatural. The purpose of cosmetics is to make you look more appealing instead of making you look like a clown. When your lover grabs your face in his palms and is ready to kiss you, you want him to think only of you instead of the cheek colors that are popping out to him. You may think that it will be preferable to do without blush makeup altogether.

Unfortunately, I look horribly pasty during spring. The bright, unforgiving light of spring makes me look like a ghoul. I need a little bit of color in spring to add some vitality to my face, and the YSL’s Bronzing Stones bronzer is what I use to give my face the glow of spring but without the look of being overly made up. The color Fire Opal works best for me. Unfortunately, I don’t have a lover who would find me ravishing although I do have a husband who will not even notice that my face appears to glow. If I ask him how I looked, he will simply say that I look fine while his back is turned to me as he watches the Space Ghost on his computer. When he laughs away, I will get an urge to grab a rat and throw it on his hair because his hair looks rather “ratty,” and his head could use some more ratty hair. Thankfully, I could not find any rat scurrying on the floor, so I was prevented from carrying out my wish.
