November 11, 2021 at 08:51AM American designers always have one event circled on the calendar in thick red pen: the annual CFDA Fashion Awards, which honours the fashion industry’s top talent. This year’s red carpet was filled to the brim with well-dressed celebrities like Zendaya, Ciara, host Emily Blunt, and Anya Taylor-Joy, who came with their fashion A-game to support the nominees.

November 11, 2021 at 08:00AM If you’d have asked me this time last year what my desert-island makeup product would be, blusher wouldn’t have even made the top 10. In fact, I think I probably only had one blusher in my otherwise excessive makeup stash. You see, I have always championed a streamlined, simple routine. As far as I was concerned, all I needed for my daily routine was a hefty layer of concealer, some bronzer and maybe a quick coat of mascara on my lashes. Anything else was just added faff that I couldn’t be bothered with.But then, a cream blusher came my way, and everything changed. I realised that the thing that stressed me out about blusher the most was the application process.

This season, in…
