Angelic, color-kissed cheeks are the coveted complexion effect when it’s cold outside, but is there a point when flushed looks feverish? Our visual point of contention: the look at Michael Kors. Every collection, it seems the sportswear legend takes a winter flush to the extreme. His Fall 2012 show is no exception, and models flaunted dramatically dewy skin, glossy ruby lips, and a hyper-bright crimson hue that moved down past the cheekbone and on the jawline. We understand the runway intention,—the makeup team simulated the illusion of time spent in the snowy outdoors—but is the large field of cheek color something you'd ever artificially create on your own? Tell us what you think of the look and share your best blushing beauty tips below!

Ladies pinch. Whores use rouge.

Way too much. It probably wouldn't look as bad on the runway with all the lighting though.

I already have a super red flushed complexion, so why add to it... you would kinda look over heated.

I ALWAYS do my blush under the bones and even on my apples. I love the flushed look:) I also take it up to my temples! I saw it on an article on here and loved it

To be honest, I haven't really seen very much "over" blushed in my life. lol I really like a lot of color and I like the model pictured above. The color is a really pretty berry pink..... Bronzer can be a different story tho sometimes.

No thanks! With my pale complexion it'll look like I've been sunburnt!
