This Japanese Blush Technique Is The Softest Way To Sculpt – We’re Obsessed!

From douyin blush to draping and sunburnt blush, blush is very much having a moment for quite some time now and has the cool girls in a tight hold. Now, the latest blush craze to infiltrate our FYPs is a Japanese blush technique that promises the prettiest flush and sculpting effect. The trend has scooped up over 15 million views and is set to headline 2023. So what does the Japanese blush technique entail? Ahead, we’re giving you the DL on this blush technique. Try it out, and you will be slaying – just saying!

Why Is It Going Viral?

The technique involves applying blush on the high points of the face to give a lifting, plumping effect. The trend gives a youthful, anime-like appearance which makes it quite appealing. Plus, it also imparts a healthy flush, the kind that can only be achieved by an intense workout sesh. If you want to try it, here’s a step-by-step guide!

The Step By Step Guide To Try The ‘Japanese Blush Technique’

Step 1: The Prep Step

Begin by prepping your base and make sure your skin is properly cleansed and moisturised before you go ahead with your makeup products. We suggest using skincare products with hydrating ingredients such as peptides, hyaluronic acid, and vitamins that give your skin that glazed vibe. Next, apply a primer, a concealer, and a hydrating foundation that give a ‘my-skin-but-better’ kind of coverage.

Step 2: Choose The Right Blush Brush

Choosing the right blush brush is key to nailing this technique. Opt for a small blush brush to ensure you can focus and apply it only on areas where you want to place it.

Step 3: Choose The Right Blush

Look for blush products that have light to deep pink tones rather than anything that is too brown or peachy. If you aren’t sure about which shade you should opt for, we recommend seeing the colour of your naturally flushed cheeks. This is the flushed cheeks you get after a workout sesh or after taking a jog. Select a shade in the same tone or lighter. This is the shade that’s guaranteed to flatter your skin.

Step 4: Apply Blush

Start by applying blush on the top section of your cheekbones. Then, apply it under the eyes and across the bridge of your nose. The key to getting a seamless finish is to apply it lightly and build colour gradually. This will help you get a pretty, lit-from-within flushed look. If you want to give your face a lifted look, keep blush placement high. You can also apply a teeny amount of blush over earlobes and blend well to supplement your flushed look.
