Cream blush is a convenient way to add a natural-looking flush to your cheeks. If you find you love the way it looks but have trouble with making it last long, here are a few steps to implement!
Primer
Primer will ensure that not only your blush will last longer, but all of your makeup! Primer will also help with giving you a smoother, even base to work with.
After doing your skin prep apply some primer to your skin. Learn more about primer and how to use it here!
Application Method
For best results use a blush brush! Using a damp beauty blender may result in the beauty blender soaking up the blush which won’t give you the best results. You can also use your fingers.
Gently stipple the brush on both cheeks and swipe a small amount on your nose.
Setting Spray
To increase longevity, spray some setting spray right before applying cream blush. This is an amazing hack that you’ll end up loving! Since your skin is hydrated right before applying the blush, it will also blend a lot easier and quicker.
I tried this on a whim one day, and it’s completely transformed my entire routine. Read my full guide here!
Powder Blush
After applying the cream blush, make sure to lock it in! It’s wise to do this with any cream makeup product you use for best results.
Lightly apply some powder blush on top of the cream blush, you can use a shade similar to the cream blush or use a different one.
Lock It ALL In
After finishing your routine, make sure to lock everything in by applying some setting powder on top. Setting powder will also help with reducing oil and shine as the day goes on! Either loose or pressed powder works. I have seen the best results using loose powder, and find it gives me a flawless finish!
That’s a wrap! You learned to implement primer into your routine to create a strong base for your makeup. Secondly, locking in your blush with a powder blush will ensure long-lasting results. Finally, going over your blush with some setting powder never hurts! Thank you for reading and be sure to subscribe to keep up with the latest from the Beginners Guide To Makeup.
