Blush has emerged as the MVP of beauty looks over the past few months (dare we say, the year?). The naturally flushed look, giving 'Just worked out but not really', with careful application of the blush of your choice, is clearly going nowhere.
The lit-from-within look has now spawned another iteration that can give you a sun-kissed and sculpted look with a few swipes of your blush and bronzer. Have you heard of 'blonzing'?
The latest technique that has the beauty community buzzing is 'blonzing'. And it is exactly what it sounds like: bronzing + blush. The idea is to achieve a sun-kissed effect with a slight tan.
This trend combines the benefits of bronzer and blush by applying both along the cheekbones and around the forehead, if you want. The main idea is that the product you choose adds a burst of natural colour to your face while also helping to contour and add dimension and depth. To achieve this, all you need is a very warm-toned blush that makes it look like you had a nice sunbath.
The best way to achieve blonzing is to focus on the colour you choose. However, makeup artists and professionals recommend using a blush in a toasted or brick tone, as this colour achieves the blonzing effect in one step.
Pro-tip: Avoid applying the blush directly onto your face. Because most blushes are heavily pigmented and will give you an intense colour payoff. Try using a makeup brush instead of applying product directly. Secondly, it’s recommended that the blush you use is in a liquid or cream formula so that it is easier to blend.
