Glossier’s Cloud Paint blush is not only an obsession of mine, it is a ~lifestyle~. Their lightweight, pigmented (yet buildable), perfectly creamy formula makes it the perfect blush for everyday ‘no-makeup-makeup’ to full glam and everything in between. Their shade range was recently expanded, so I thought it only right to assign each shade an emotion. So here’s the ultimate guide to choosing your cloud paint shade based only on how you might be feeling at a given moment.
Puff: Someone Special is on Your Mind
This cool-toned pink is perfect for those moments when you find yourself lost in thought over that special someone. It’s rosie flush leaves you dewy and pink and is perfect for those butterflies in your stomach.
Storm: Cold and ruthless
Winter days are coming up fast, frigid air will be drying out skin and make you feel more like an ice queen than a human person. For those moments that you feel like you can take down a rival kingdom, Storm is the perfect shade. The dark red hue is great for the winter season and will leave skin looking perfectly flushed by the cold without actually having to bear the cold.
Dawn: Angry
Sometimes we get mad. And that’s okay! Because there’s a cloud paint shade for that. Dawn is a firey Orange with a power punch of pigment. This shade will reflect the fire inside and let the world know you’re not a bitch to mess with.
Dusk: Bored
If you feel like procrastinating on that really tedious homework, or are just looking desperately for something to do, dusk is the shade for you. It’s an everyday nude that works as a contour or a blush. Versatility like that is great for a moment when you just need something to do.
Haze: Post Mid-Term
Did that midterm go well? Not at all? But like, at least it’s over with right? And that’s something worth glowing about! This warm berry shade will have you looking fresh and glowy when it’s officially party time because that one mid-term you haven’t been able to stop thinking about is finally over with!
Beam: Sad But The Sun’s Out
For all those times when we feel a bit down and we wish the sky reflected our gloomy mood, but instead it happens to be a gorgeous blue day, there’s Beam. A gentle peachy look that’ll have you radiating in the sun while still being true to that low key mood.
