It's hard to imagine a cuter beauty product than Guerlain's lip and cheek stain. With its fluorescent pink bottle and stylized cap, this thing is beauty product porn. While the gel is just as screamingly neon as its packaging would indicate, it's so sheer and natural-looking on skin that no one would know you're wearing makeup. All it takes is a few quick swipes to impart lips and cheeks with a pretty, feminine glow.

In eight shades ranging from beige-pink to plummy purple, Becca's lip and cheek stains suit a variety of skin tones, particularly deep complexions. The tint's creamy, satin texture make it just as easily blendable as Glossier's blush. And each shade is scented like the fruit it's named for (e.g. Grapefruit, Dragonfruit, Lychee) -- a nice feature, considering most lip/cheek products taste like a weird potpourri of chemicals.

Pixi's liquid blush is an excellent bargain buy, with a luminous finish that blurs imperfections and an idiot-proof gel formula. Don't be fooled by the deep, dusky color you see in the tube -- this gel is even sheerer than the gel-cream hybrid Cloud Paint. This is a great product for on-the-fly application and touch-ups, thanks to its buildable pigments and petite tube. You can't f#$& this up.

With sherbet-like colors and a nifty applicator, Chosungah 22's cushion blush is a Total Beauty editor favorite. Like a lot of squeeze-tube blushes, Cloud Paint's packaging makes it way too easy to dispense way too much product; Real Cheek Smoother, on the other hand, has an absorbent cushion tip that prevents that makeup mishap. Just dab the cushion on your cheeks, and tap, tap, tap your fingers until the blush melts into skin. We love the shade Lilac Drop, an unusual, icy lavender that looks incredible paired with violet lipstick.
