Finding the right shade of Blush

Picking the right shade of blush can sometimes be easy but also a lot of times very challenging. This is going to be more of a Blush 101 post but I hope it helps you when you go to pick up that new shade of blush. Blush is a great assest in makeup and it brings out the natural colors that your face may be lacking that day. It highlights your features and is a great beauty product to wear.
For Fair Skin…
Fair skin should complement their natural color with a shade of soft pink.

For Medium Skin…
Medium color skin looks great with a shade of blush in the warm peach or a dark pink color family.

For Dark Skin…
Darker skin complection should lean toward a shade of rich reddish brown or a sheer orange red shade.

    Totally agree with you! I have SO many blushes but right now I’m loving a coralish color from Tarte’s Amazonian Clay collection. it seriously lasts ALL day. Honestly, if there is one beauty item that is a must have for me daily, it is blush. I look like death without it!

    @ Jenn..if you are a Nars user you should try the new benefit makeup blush called bella bamba. It was modeled after Nars and I love it!
