For sun-flush in a flash, look to the latest launches of pink lemonade and sunset blush shades.
This summer, the pros are doing powder duos. Blush was never as beautifully packaged as Charlotte Tilbury’s bewejelled and heart-shaped Pillow Talk Beauty Soulmates Palettes, €53 in perfect peach and pink, where one side brightens and the other blurs. Take it from Tilbury: “Apply your blush shade to cheeks first and then blur and brighten with your awakening Airbrush Flawless Finish. To amplify, mix the two and apply to the centre of the cheeks to create a dreamy, cloud-like, blurred effect!”
Similarly, Westman Atelier’s three new Sculpting Powder Duos, €80 combine colour and contour for a naturally sculpted flush of pink with a soft matte finish. “The colours of these duos bring so much joy and life to the face,” says Gucci Westman. “The formula is super buildable, seamless to apply and so easy to blend.”
Sunburn blush continues to dominate TikTok beauty trends – blend warm, sunset shades in a “W” across the face, high on the cheeks and bridge of the nose where the sun naturally hits. Chanel’s sunset shades of Les Beiges Healthy Golden Glow Powder, €70, combines coppery bronze for a golden hour gleam or for a flash of fluorescent sun flush, MAC’s new Strobe Beam Liquid Blushes, €26, sink into the skin like the Strobe you know and love.
Multi-sticks are travel saviours and no one makes a multi-tasker like Trinny. Trinny London’s latest, Trinity, €44, is a dual-ended design of bronze and blush, one end matte and the other a glowy balm, for lips, cheeks and eyes. No7’s multi-sticks mix two ends of peachy pinks or nudey bronze for a double dose of radiant, healthy gleam for lip and cheeks.
For perfect pink lemonades, look to Armani and our own Kash Beauty. Keilidh Cashell’s flawless formulas now include a duo blush that you’ll find in the make-up bag of most of the IMAGE staffers – in Pink Soda or Coral Flush, €30, colour payoff meets a sheen like you’re always in golden hour.
For a range of candy coloured tones, look to Armani’s newest Luminous Silk Cheek Tint Shine, €43, in a rainbow of suits-all shades – it melts into the skin with the same fresh-faced finish that makes Luminous Silk foundation a bestseller.
