In the world of makeup, knowing how to combine the right products is key to achieving a radiant, natural complexion. Among the must-haves, the blush and highlighter duo is an essential ally for enhancing your complexion. Discover how to use this magical combination to reveal radiant, fresh-looking skin.
Why combine blush and highlighter?
The blush adds a healthy touch of color to the cheeks, recreating a natural healthy glow. The highlighter captures light to highlight the contours of the face and create a subtle, luminous glow. Together, they balance color and light for a harmonious and sophisticated result.
How to choose your blush and highlighter?
The blush
-
Light complexion: Opt for pink, peach or coral shades for a natural effect.
-
Medium skin tone: Apricot, dark pink or light bronze shades enhance the complexion.
-
Dark skin tone: Bright colors like brick red or plum add depth without looking artificial.
The Illuminator
-
Choose a texture suited to your skin type: powder for combination to oily skin, cream or liquid for dry skin.
-
Champagne, gold or pink shades suit most skin tones.
How to apply blush and highlighter for a natural effect?
-
Start with the blush: Apply it to the tops of your cheekbones in circular motions towards your temples.
-
Follow with highlighter: Apply it to areas where light naturally hits: the tops of the cheekbones, Cupid's bow, the bridge of the nose and the brow bone.
-
Blend well: Use a brush or sponge to blend the products and avoid streaks.
Mistakes to avoid
-
