Feel Good Look Good: Blush

We looked for the top-selling products at Sephora stores across the region. We found that Georgetown ladies covet pale, shiny mouths; Maryland dwellers love Liza Minnelli lashes; and Virginia girls eat up candy-flavor lip glosses.
Everyone seems to love the boudoir look--Nars Blush in Orgasm flies off the shelves no matter where the store.
