This TikTok-Famous Blush Is Available in 3 New Shades (I Bet They Sell Out ASAP)

@kaitlyn_mclintockI'm a beauty editor, so it should come as no surprise that I love blush… and I mean love it. Blame it on my recently dull complexion (Midwest winters are no joke) or the fact that I rarely have more than 10 minutes to put myself together, but blush is an essential part of my makeup routine. It's one of the only products that can make a major difference with little time or effort.
That doesn't mean I love all blush, though. I'm actually pretty picky about the formulas I use. I want them to provide enough pigment, blend easily into my skin, and last for more than a few hours after application. The one blush that checks off each of these requirements is the TikTok-viral Saie Dew Liquid Blush ($25). I can attest that the creamy liquid formula is packed with pigment, looks so pretty on the skin, and lasts forever. I don't like to toss around the word "favorite" too often, but this is my all-time favorite blush.
When I heard that the brand was dropping three new shades, I knew I had to get my hands on them. I wanted to know if they'd hold up to my old favorites. (Spoiler alert: They do.) Keep scrolling to see how each new shade looks IRL and snag them before they sell out.
The Old Favorite
Originally, there were five shades. (Now there are eight, but more on that in a minute.) My go-to shade is called Dreamy, and it's a cool-toned berry hue. I find that it suits my skin's cool undertones well. Plus, whenever I wear it, I get major compliments on my skin.

@kaitlyn_mclintockUsually, I go pretty natural with it, but this time, I used a heavy hand to show how the color looks against my light-to-medium skin tone. It matches the natural color of my cheeks when they flush from the cold or from working out, which is why I think I like it so much.
The New Shades
The first new shade is called Cutie, and it's a warm dusty rose color. On my skin, it reads almost terra-cotta. I think it's super flattering. Honestly, I love it so much that it's currently vying with Dreamy to win the title of all-time favorite. There—I said it.

@kaitlyn_mclintockNext is Sweetie, which is a foolproof, neutral pink color. This one is a good go-to for people who like a subtle yet universally flattering shade. It's not the one that stood out to me, but it's the one that I know I can wear as part of almost any makeup look.

@kaitlyn_mclintockLast but not least is Baby, which is an aptly named cool baby pink. I won't give up on it yet, but I have a suspicion that this shade doesn't suit my skin tone as well as the others. Still, I can see how it would look stunning on other people. Even though it looks pretty shockingly pink in the tube, it reads as springy and youthful once it's blended on the skin.
