Stop Overthinking Blush Placement
Blush was never meant to be this complicated. Originally, it’s just there to mimic blood flow—aka, make you look alive. But somewhere along the way, we started treating it like a contouring tool, a face shaper, a cheekbone elevator.
Truth is, natural flushing doesn’t follow rules. Have you ever looked at your face when you're cold, nervous, laughing, or tipsy? The red shows up everywhere—under your eyes, across your nose, along your jawline, even on your ears. It’s inconsistent, messy, and—ironically—more beautiful that way.
So yeah, go ahead and dab blush on your chin, your temples, wherever you feel you need a bit of warmth. Forget the rigid “C-shape for lift” or “high and tight for youth” tutorials.
Instead of stressing about precision, focus on texture and blending. Pick a tone that melts into your skin and apply with a light hand. No blocks, no borders—just glow.
Uniform blush rules make unique faces look the same. That’s not makeup. That’s erasure.
