The “clean girl” aesthetic has dominated the beauty zeitgeist for years, but I’d like to take it a step further. Here are products I recommend for those of us looking for a an imperceivable beat.
Part Two
RMS Beauty Lip2Cheek
My next featured product has quite a reputation in fashion. Lip2Cheek is said to be founder Rose-Marie Swift’s secret to creating that angelic glow we see on the Victoria’s Secret runways. Alright, enough with the secrets. Of the hundreds of cream blushes on the market today, this is the “no makeup-makeup” hero that stands the test of time as a best in class. A makeup artist staple, this product leads one to wonder how something so subtle can be such a banger.

The magic of RMS Lip2Cheek doesn’t strike in the form of flashy packaging, internet virality, wacky formula, or garish colorway, but in subtlety and versatility. This lip and cheek is your Goldie Locks formula. Not matte, greasy, shimmery, or dry, this product looks like creamy balanced skin when applied. Lip2Cheek delivers light-medium buildable pigment with a practically invisible finish on the skin. This product can be used with reckless abandon.
Let’s talk about colors. I find Rose-Marie’s range of Lip2Cheek colors brilliant. To the untrained eye, this range might look like any other blush collection, but on the contrary, these are some of the most nuanced, skin native colors in the cream blush universe. These colors were blended with the color theory eye of a painter, and read as life on the skin. This is something almost impossible to find on the market today. No unflattering shimmer or glitter, no clown colors, not a stitch of makeup in sight.
