Why Over Blushing Is the Winter Trend You Need

Why Over Blushing Is the Winter Trend You Need

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!
