October 22, 2016

Blush for skin tone? Right you read it right.. We must have heard skin tone dry, oily combination skin undertone warm cool but skin tone for blush? Let’s see How to Choose the Right Blush For Your Skin Tone in today’s post.

If you analyse it, the best blush for anyone is a colour similar to the natural colour of their cheeks when blood rushes in when they are giddy or embarrassed. It would normally be a berry shade because of the way blood looks underneath the skin and veins.

Following that pointer, the berry shade you choose would depend on how fair or how dark you are, but before we even get there, let’s talk about undertones. It’s important to note that yellow olive undertones will compliment a warmer colour and pink blue undertones will compliment a cooler, more blue-based colour.

Fair Skin tone

For fair skinned ladies, a light pink to peach colour would be good options for that naturally look.

    Thanks for this. I have to say I don’t really wear blush that often, I’m not quite sure where to put it or what color would look good on me.

    While buying blush i always match it with my skin. Most of the time I get hands on peachy dark shade.

    I don’t wear blush because I have rosacea. But it’s good to know that I should wear a berry shade if I were to wear it.

    even though I’m not a make up person, I never knew there was blush for skin tone. I guess that explains why some people look like clowns. Haha! They obviously aren’t aware. This would be helpful for them.

    I use ark berry and deep red as blush and lipstick tones too. All colours suit dark skin but these ones are best.

    I love a bit of blush, especially at the moment when I’m spending so much time inside! I’m fair with red hair so I tend to move between an apricot Glossier Cloud Paint for a natural look, a light bronzy Physician’s Formula butter blush when I’ve had a bit of sun (it smells delicious too!) and of course Nars Orgasm for a bit of shimmery flush! x
