In the fast moving world of beauty, this year’s biggest trend hasn’t been about contouring or bronzing it’s been about overblushing.
What was once considered a subtle hint of pink on the cheeks has transformed into a full-on flush, with many beauty enthusiasts going for bolder, more vibrant shades of blush that highlight their cheekbones, temples, and the nose – for a natural rosy look.
Why? Because the look is playful, romantic, and warm, making it the perfect transition into the colder winter months when a natural, rosy glow is just what you need to brighten things up.
How to Master the Over blush Look: A Word From Our In-House Experts
To get started, you’ll want to choose a blush that compliments your skin tone and grab your favourite powder brush. Here are a few over blushing tips:
- Layering is the key: Start with a light layer of blush and build it up gradually to avoid an overly heavy look – you can always add more but it’s harder to tone it down!
- Placement matters: We recommend applying your blush higher on your cheeks and blending it out towards the temples, this will make your blush appear more natural!
- Experiment with tones: Don’t limit yourself to pinks; try coral, berry, or even reddish shades for a unique winter look – sometimes when it comes to finding your ride or die blush it can be trial and error process!
