Sarah Jessica Parker, 57, has been gracing our screens as the iconic Carrie Bradshaw for more than 20 years, first appearing in Sex and the City and now in its sequel, And Just Like That…, which began airing in late 2021. While a lot may have changed with Carrie over the years, one thing we can always count on? The looks she’s always serving—from her amazing outfits to her radiant makeup.
And lucky for us, Sherri Berman Laurence, the makeup department head for And Just Like That… revealed some of SJP’s go-to products on set to Harper’s BAZAAR. While many products help create Carrie’s iconic look, the true MVP (and an editor-favorite brand) is the Merit Flush Balm Cream Blush.
According to Berman Laurence, when creating Carrie’s look, Elaine Offers Woulard, Parker’s personal makeup artist on the show, wanted to make the look “fresh-faced, and to make the makeup look easy.” In keeping with her vision, Offers Woulard used the Flush Balm Blush in the shade Cheeky to achieve an “effortless, natural warm pink glow.”
But there’s plenty more to love about the blush than just how amazing it looks. The cream blush, according to vegan makeup brand Merit Beauty, is formulated without any ingredients that can clog pores or cause acne. It also features skin-nourishing ingredients like Vitamin E, which hydrates and conditions skin while protecting from damage. Plus, the Flush Balm’s stick applicator makes the lightweight, buildable formula easy to apply for a natural glow without any cakiness.
But the best part is that it’s never been easier to recreate Carrie Bradshaw’s effortless glow. Merit’s Flush Balm Blush is available at Sephora for only $28, and in case you needed more convincing, customers are loving it too.
“Amazing, lovely, life changing. If you’re into no-makeup makeup and don’t like wasting time getting ready, this is a product for you,” says one reviewer. “Cheeky is a perfect shade for any season.” “It is light and silky in texture. Very easy to use as little or as much as you’d like,” adds another, “I think it would be successful on a huge range of skin tones.”
