peaches and cream
Lovely complexion description
Peaches and cream describes a smooth, pale complexion with rosy undertones—the ideal of healthy, attractive skin: She has a peaches-and-cream complexion.
The phrase extends to anything pleasant, harmonious, or going smoothly: Their relationship isn't all peaches and cream.
The literal sense—peaches served with cream—is the obvious origin.
