These are the only two blushes you will ever need. One is pink. The other: coral. Both are Dior and appear in the pan to be two terrifying and off-putting shades of neon. Have faith! Both look absolutely fucking luminous on the skin. If I could only have one blush for the rest of my life, it would be the pink one, but get both if you can. Don’t bother with the other reddish, purply colors—they all end up looking like inferior versions of the pink. A make-up artist once taught me to do a light wash of blush with a thick powder brush over whatever eyeshadow you’re wearing to tie the face together and to add blush just above the ball of the nose where you put your contour for that super-cute, kawaii-looking button-nose. Highlighter on the tip of the nose always. Maybe you already know these tips, but learning them lowkey changed the way I did my make-up forever.

Someone sent out the bat signal asking me how to get the Sabrina blush look. I am here to do my civic duty.
After a bit of research, I’ve determined the exact blushes that are most often used on Sabrina. I will also briefly explain the technique.
Sabrina is most often sporting these blush tones: plum, cool pink, or a warm dusty rose
You’ll want to start with a liquid or cream blush and top it with a powder blush. Pick something like a soft pink- something that would mimic your natural flush. The makeup artist technically uses something that’s a blush/highlighter. Using this as a base under the powder blush will give it a more lit from within look.
The balance in her looks is super simple and natural skin, not much on the eyes, with the blush and lip being the focal point. So keep those things in mind when going after her look.
Sabrina’s actual blushes: - Armani fluid sheer glow enhancer (shade 8) - Armani luminous silk glow blush (shades 51, 51 and 60)
Good alts: - Patrick ta blush duos- cream and powder in one compact! (She’s a doll, oh she’s different, just enough, she’s giving)
- Milani baked blush (dolce pink)
- L’Oréal infallible blush (15 legendary berry)
- NARS liquid blush (dolce vita, insatiable)
- NARS powder blush (dolce vita, dominant, infatuated)
May your spirit be merry and your cheeks bright.

đź’„If you wear foundation or a skin tint put highlighter on underneath and be GENEROUS
If you don’t wear foundation something liiiike the Chanel baume multi stick or the westman atelier stick in like the almost clear color (sry these two are expensive but I think worth it!)
Liquid blush is also good - the new huda beauty one, the new lawless cream blush, and the rhode pocket blush or whatever, simi haze Sun flush is also sooooooo good like maybe if you just do one go with that it’s so easy to use and the colors are perfect
Powder lasts longer tho and smudges less and if you want that I’d say go with the simi haze bronzer I think? Idk it’s in a red compact

I’ve always been a blush girlie, but I never knew where to place my blush. For awhile now, i’ve just started putting it everywhere coating my cheek it. The look has been dubbed “boyfriend blush” by tiktok but inspiration for me was taken by Devon Aoki blush look. However, i don’t always use orange or bronze blushes, I switch it up to rosy pinks from time to time like the picture i added.
I just want to look like the sun planted a huge kiss on my cheek !!

Ever heard of it?! You need it more than you think you do! Start with spools of 1.5 inch “double-faced” satin (I’ve linked my favorite Amazon brand) in the specific colors of: black, crimson, turquoise, goldenrod/marigold, and sort of a icy, slate-gray, periwinkle blue. A deep, wine-red burgundy in .5 inch velvet and an Easter-y, baby pink (or blue or yellow or lilac!) in .25 inch satin will also come in surprisingly handy. Use for beautifying hairstyles, presents, and bouquets of all kinds. Giving someone a single flower is made a thousand times fancier just by tying a bow on it.

If the heel isn’t walkable then just call it what it is: A tiny art installation for your closet. Unwalkable shoes sit on shelves like small leather sculptures! The very purpose of shoes is to increase your mobility and comfort—not to limit your stamina and plans for the night! Stop wasting money and start engaging with reality instead. You will never wear them. Save the money.
