6 Cream Blush Hacks That’ll Majorly Up Your Glow Game

Draped Blush Hack

Say hello to the blush technique that’s taking the beauty world by storm. Blush draping has entered the chat. The hack involves placing the blush strategically along your cheekbones and all the way to your temples. The draped blush look frames the eyes and often transitions into eyeshadow, however, that’s not always the case. The wildly popular hack helps to accentuate the cheekbones, giving your face a lifted, flushed glow.

Ombre Blush

The ombre blush hack has been flooding our feed for quite some time now. The hack requires two shades of a cream blush. The beauty lovers on IG have been opting for a pink and purple shade. Apply the darker/deeper shade at the top of your cheekbones and the lighter shade on the apples of your cheeks. Blend out using your fingers or a sponge and you’re left with a sweet but stunning contour. 

Conceal Dark Circles

For folks looking to conceal their dark under eyes, here’s a game-changing makeup trick to call on. The hack involves applying a pop of colour to the under-eye area to brighten up your peepers. All you need is to apply some blush in the inner corner below your eyes. Then, apply a bit of concealer and then blend them out using a concealer brush. 

Fake A Face Lift

Wanna fake a facelift? This viral face-lifting hack is pure genius. The key here is to strategize the placement of your blush. For this, the blush is placed way higher than where we’ve typically been told to apply it. The hack involves placing contour on the hallows of your cheeks. Apply the blush just on top of that. The products are applied all the way to the temples to fake a really lifted look. 

3-Step Contour Hack

The hack involves using 3 shades of cream blush to give your face a sculpted look. All you have to do is apply a slim line of each of these blush shades on top of your cheekbones, on the sides of your forehead, and on your jawline to lend your face a super pretty, flushed glow. 

Douyin Blush Hack FTW!

Douyin blush hack is one of China’s most coveted makeup trends. The look entails making tiny hearts or ‘v’s on high points of your face – like on top of your cheekbones, nose, chin, and around the outer corner of your eyes to give a doll-like finish to your beauty look.  

Way to glow!
