How to Achieve the Sunset Blush Look

Prep Your Canvas: Start with a clean and moisturized face. Apply your favorite foundation and concealer as usual.

Choose Your Sunset Shades: Select a palette featuring warm tones such as coral, peach, and gold. These hues mimic the colors of a sunset and will be the key to achieving the look.

Blend, Blend, Blend: Using a fluffy blush brush, swirl the chosen shades together and lightly dust onto the apples of your cheeks. Blend outwards towards your temples for a seamless transition.

Layer for Intensity: For a more intense sunset effect, layer the blush colors gradually until you reach your desired level of vibrancy.

Highlight the High Points: Finish off the look by applying a golden highlighter to the high points of your face – the cheekbones, bridge of the nose, and cupid’s bow – to enhance the sunlit effect.
