How to apply cream blush correctly?
Cream blush is best applied with fingertips or a synthetic brush over foundation on the apples of your cheeks, and only then powder your face if necessary
Lately, “no makeup makeup” has become increasingly popular. And the more invisible your makeup is, the better. And cream cosmetics can help you look natural. Although some representatives of the fair half of humanity do not use such products because they consider them too oily for the skin. But if you learn how to use them correctly, your makeup will become much better.
And before we begin to study the tricks of applying such cosmetics, let's find out what advantages they have:
- Made from wax and oils;
- A variety of minerals and trace elements are necessarily added to the composition, which can maintain the health of your facial skin;
- Such cosmetics lie on the skin much smoother than dry products. This means that cream products are better suited for masking various skin imperfections. But dry cosmetics quite often simply clog pores and all imperfections become even more noticeable;
- There are no age restrictions for such funds. So you can use them for quite a long period.
I would also like to add that this cosmetics is great for girls with oily skin faces. The fact is that almost all manufacturers include absorbents that absorb excess fat on the face. So after you switch to such cosmetics, you can forget about the oily shine on your cheeks, forehead and nose. And today we will look in more detail at ways to apply cream blush.
Cream blush: application rules
So, rule one: before applying the product, you should definitely smile. And you don’t need to think that this is some kind of psychological move to improve your mood. You want the apples of your cheeks to stand out, because it is on them that we apply a small amount of the product using a sponge or a special brush. And then carefully blend the cosmetics in the direction from the center of the face to the hair.
Rule two: never combine dry and cream cosmetics.
When combined, the creamy one will begin to roll into lumps, which will not improve your appearance in any way. Therefore, if you used to use powder and now bought cream cosmetics, then you should make a choice. You either use powder without blush, or only blush. Another way out of this situation is to replace the powder with foundation. But in this case, you need to carefully ensure that the layer of cosmetics does not turn out to be too thick.
How to use cream blush correctly: choosing a color
Remember that the choice of color for products with a creamy or dry texture does not depend on the brand of cosmetics or price. You definitely need to pay attention to your color type of appearance. And first of all, you need to pay attention to the color of your eyes.
For those with blue eyes, shades such as peach or pink are suitable. But
rich purple or plum shades better for girls With blue eyes do not use, as they will clog the color of the pupil, thereby reducing the shape of the eyes.
For brown eyes Bright berry shades are suitable. Attention! Under no circumstances should you use cold shades. They will make the color of your eyes lifeless. Bruises under the eyes will also appear. Beige colors are not suitable for brown eyes.
They will simply be invisible against the background of bright pupils.
And here's to green eyes Pink shades are perfect. This will make your appearance much brighter. Green eyes should be avoided in dark burgundy or rich blue tones. This way you will simply cover up your eye color and it will become pale and uninteresting.
The selection also depends on hair and skin color. If you have red hair and olive skin, then the best option would be blush with golden or pearlescent pigments. To the owners dark hair and slightly dark skin, it is recommended to opt for cool shades such as burgundy or brick. When combining light brown hair and yellowish skin, you should give preference to colors such as pink, coral or peach. But if you have fair skin and dark hair, then beige or peach shades will look best.
How to apply cream blush correctly
Shadows of this texture need to be applied in a special way. Professional makeup artists recommend considering your face shape as your starting point.
So, to the owners oval face you need to start with the “apples” of your cheeks. In order to determine their exact location, you need to go to the mirror and simply smile. Apply a little product to the convex part of the cheeks and blend it towards the temples.
For those with a round face shape, cream powder should be applied vertically. We start with the “apples” and then blend the color towards the outside of the face. In some cases, the end point of the blush may be slightly raised upward.
Girl with face shape "elongated oval" you should start with areas near the hairline. In this case, they need to be shaded vertically. This will visually expand your face and make it more symmetrical.
And, of course, those with a square face.
In this case, you need to approach the application of blush with all responsibility. In order for the oval of the face to visually appear narrower, you need to suck in your cheeks in front of the mirror and brush over the hollow that has appeared. In this case, you need to blend the cosmetics towards the upper edge of the ear.
Now that we have figured out the features of application depending on the shape of the face, let's spend a little time on the most famous cream blush. So at least you can choose one of best options cosmetics.

If previously it was difficult to imagine cosmetics with a creamy texture, today it has become commonplace. Easy-to-use cream blush will not only give your skin a delicate glow, but will also take care of its hydration and nutrition. Cream blush is taking the world by storm.
Peculiarities
Recently, creamy textures have become one of the most popular and unique products. This includes blush. Today, such a product can appear in almost any form - in an ordinary powder compact, as dry textures, or in a tube resembling foundation. Blush sticks have become very popular.
In general, blush is divided into three types:
- dry textures;
- cream textures;
- ball blush.
Not everyone knows what the advantage of products with a creamy structure is over dry ones. It's simple. Constantly using products with a dry texture irritates your skin and makes it drier. Dry blush will only highlight imperfections and flaking of dry skin. Such problems should not arise with cream products. The buttery texture of the blush is obtained thanks to nourishing oils. Such a product will not dry out, but moisturize your skin. Creamy textures are considered more durable than dry ones.
The only significant disadvantage of the product is the need for careful shading, but any girl can get used to this - for the sake of an excellent result.
You need to remember that cream blush will not achieve the desired effect if applied to powder. The product must be applied to clean skin or for foundation.
How to choose?
Today, when cream textures are at the peak of their popularity, most brands have begun to actively produce similar products. Blush comes in standard form, in stick form, in cream form, some go further and even release double blush. However, with so many cosmetics, you can get confused and choose something completely different from what you need. Here are several budget and expensive options for cream blush.
"Chanel Le Blush Creme De"– one of the best options for cream blush that is not budget. The product is presented in a traditional powder compact Chanel. There are only a few shades, but they are all perfect to wear. The blush has no scent and there is no brush included. The blush does not require a lot of blending, it is very manageable and fits perfectly on the skin, and is very long lasting. Also suitable for facial sculpting.
"Lumene Raspberry Miracle Blush Sorbet"– gorgeous blush in stick form. The packaging of the product is bright and immediately catches the eye. There are four shades in total. The advantage of blush sticks is their application - it’s almost impossible to miss (especially if you want to highlight your cheekbones). The product rolls out of the stick like a lipstick stick. Excellent application, stable, does not roll into lumps. The stick is very economical - it can last even for a year.
"Essence Cream To Powder Soo Blush!"– one of the best options for those who want a more budget-friendly product with the same quality. Essence represents only two shades - hot pink and soft peach. The texture of the products is very soft and delicate. Peach blush gives a slight glow, while pink blush gives the face a natural glow. Both products apply well and stay on without clumping.
"Dior Diorblush Cheek Stick"– these blush sticks won’t fit every girl’s budget, but they are worthy of mention. This product, presented to the buyer in the form of a stick, can last a very long time and is economical. Total Dior presented its blush sticks in three shades. They are all very well pigmented, there are no problems with shading
"H&M Blush Stick"– budget blush, presented in a stick. They wear well, the shades are pigmented, do not make the skin oily, and do not add shine. They don't roll into lumps.

The blush is presented in one shade, but it can easily claim the title of universal - perfect for girls with any skin color. The product is worn all day, applies well, the texture is pleasant, oily, and does not make the skin greasy.
"NYX Stick Blush"– another budget option that boasts excellent quality. The product is presented in the form of a stick, NYX offers many shades. They are very durable, give a natural effect, are easy to apply and last all day.

The brand presented a similar product, but in a dry structure. The blush is universal and can be applied to the lips. Excellently pigmented and do the job well. Overall the idea is quite good.
How to apply it correctly?
Cream products are not as easy to apply as dry products. However, anyone can learn how to use them; all it takes is a little effort. The first thing worth noting is that blush does not have to be applied exclusively with a brush. This may be suitable for other means:
- Sponge- an excellent option, especially if you wet it a little first.
- Finger– you can control the whole process, the shade will look brighter.
- Lip brush– you can take a small, thin brush.
First you need to select suitable color blush The same problem can happen with creamy textures as with dry ones - even the most expensive product will look bad on the wrong skin color. If you have a hard time focusing on your skin color, you can easily find the right shade based on your hair color:
- For blondes Light and pastel colors are suitable - soft pink, peach.
- Redhead For girls, bright colors are suitable - peach, orange, sand.
- Brunettes All of the above shades can be suitable, the main thing is not to apply light colors on dark skin and too dark ones on light skin.
Blush should be applied on top of the foundation, using smooth circular movements for shading. If this is your first time, a sponge will work best. It will be able to blend the product even if you overdo it.
More experienced suitable for girls a regular brush, medium hard and with dense bristles. The brush should be moved as smoothly and in a circular motion. A bad brush can kill the effect of the most expensive product. The pigment simply will not adhere to the skin.
You need to blend the product until you are sure that the pigment is smoothly distributed over the skin.
In the case of cream blush, you need to be careful, you can create the effect of red cheeks. This blush will not suit any girl. Do not overuse blush with a lot of shimmer.
To apply blush correctly, you must take into account your face shape:
- Round– owners of this type of face always strive to make it visually narrower, to emphasize the often invisible cheekbones. To do this, you should choose dark shades, but not too prominent on your skin. It is necessary to draw a line from the chin to the ear, and then carefully shade everything in a circular motion.
- Oval face– the product must be applied to the cheeks. With this type of face, you just need to smile to see where you need to apply the product.
- Square face– to smooth out rough features, you need to start from the bottom of the cheeks. At the same time, it is contraindicated for this type of face to strongly highlight the cheekbones.
- Heart shaped face– Apply blush to the cheek area and blend the product thoroughly. Excessive brightness should be avoided.
