How Do You Use Creme Blush?

Published in Makeup Application 2 mins read

To use creme blush effectively, you can apply it using a makeup brush, beauty blender, or your fingers.

Applying Creme Blush for Different Looks

The method of application will vary depending on the look you wish to achieve:

  • Fresh-faced flush: For a natural, healthy glow, apply the creme blush directly to the apples of your cheeks.
    • How to locate your apples: Suck in your cheeks to find your cheekbones. The apples of your cheeks are the fleshy parts that pop out when you smile.
  • Contoured look: For a more sculpted and defined appearance, apply the blush below your cheekbones, sweeping the color upwards towards your hairline.

Application Tools

Here’s a breakdown of how to apply creme blush using different tools:

Tool Technique Best for
Makeup brush Apply with light, sweeping motions, blending as you go. Precise application.
Beauty Blender Use a stippling motion to dab and blend the product evenly onto the skin. Smooth, diffused look.
Fingers Gently dab the product onto the skin, blending with light taps. Quick, natural finish.

Step-by-Step Application

  1. Prep your skin: Make sure your skin is moisturized before applying any makeup.
  2. Choose your application method: Select your tool of choice – brush, blender, or fingers.
  3. Apply the blush: Depending on your desired effect (fresh-faced or contoured), apply the creme blush to the appropriate areas.
  4. Blend: Gently blend the product for a seamless finish. If using your fingers, be careful not to rub too hard, which could move the product around too much.

By following these guidelines, you can effectively use creme blush to enhance your makeup look, whether you're aiming for a natural flush or a more defined contour.
