The weather is getting warmer and it’s time to give our makeup a fun refresh. One thing I’m excited for is adding fun pops of color using blush. We already know blush has been having a major moment, taking over our favorite TikTok and Instagram makeup pages. We love a good pink blush or purple blush, but now let’s focus on orange blush.
Orange blush gives perfect spring and summer vibes. It’s reminiscent of a gorgeous sunny day giving your skin a sunkissed glow. This pretty hue looks beautiful on everyone, adding a “just got back from the beach” feel.
It may sometimes be a challenge to find the right tone of blush to suit darker skin tones, so I called on my friend, celebrity makeup artist Sisi Nike to share her top favorite orange blushes for darker complexions. Which one are you reaching for?
