Fashion demands either a pale porcelain face, or a healthy blush, or skin tanned almost to blackness. But to keep up with all the fashion trends, you don’t need to experiment with your own skin - just use blush for your face. On this moment manufacturers decorative cosmetics offer big variety products that match not only the complexion of the face, but also intended for various skin types, suitable for certain brands of foundation and foundation.
Definition
Blush is a means to highlight the contours of the face. Traditionally, they were applied to the apples of the cheeks in order to emphasize their roundness and give the face a certain symmetry. But already from the 18th century, colored powder began to be used for correction: blush was applied to the cheekbones - above or below the cheekbone line, under the eyebrows, on the temples and on the chin, which made it possible to make the face more fresh and youthful in appearance.

Composition of the product
The mechanism of action of blush is the same as that of foundations of different shades. A brighter and darker color compared to the rest of the skin attracts attention and focuses it on a certain element. Accordingly, in such images you can slightly change the proportions of the face.

The composition of the product is simple: the vast majority of blush is made on the basis of talc - a mineral friable powder that is slightly greasy to the touch. Talc is mixed with dye - carmine, cochineal, safflower dye or synthetic pigments. Traditionally, the best option is a product with carmine.

In addition, the composition includes rose water, lanolin, and zinc oxide. The latter serves as a kind of hardener. Some varieties also contain various waxes in addition to lanolin, mineral oils, esters. In the version with glitter, pearl particles are added.
Classification
Modern blush comes in a variety of forms, which, of course, is much more convenient. However, it is worth considering that the properties of the compositions will differ somewhat, and this applies not only to fat content, for example, or durability, but also to shade.
Apply the powder with a brush - the sponge creates a layer that is too dense. The color of blush in powder form can be considered the standard.
Cream blush includes mineral oils, moisturizing and even nourishing ingredients. They are applied with your fingers. This option is preferred by professional makeup artists when working with evening makeup.
Blush is applied with your fingers: first, place several dots on the desired area, and then shade it. The foam dries very quickly and the blush cannot be corrected in the future; you will have to remove it with cosmetic milk and reapply.
- Bronzer - this group includes all options that have the color of tanned skin, from golden to dark bronze. Bronzer is used much more widely: it can replace powder when you want to tan your face. You can find out more about bronzers in.
Shiny - small particles of mother-of-pearl are added to this composition, which gives the skin a somewhat unnatural, “festive” shine. This option is purely decorative, which must be taken into account when applying: blush is applied to the cheekbones, to areas under the eyebrows or near the outer corners of the eyes. The composition is not applied to the chin, temples, apples of the cheeks, that is, where healthy skin usually has a brighter pink tint. Find out how to choose foundation for dry skin.

Features of choice
To pick up the best option, several factors need to be taken into account.
The purpose of applying blush is also taken into account. If you need to refresh your face, rejuvenate it, blush is applied not only to the cheekbones, but also to the chin, temples, and the area under the eyebrows.
In this case, the shade is selected as close as possible to natural: usually it is peach or pink, and for both dark and light skin. In addition, for tanned skin, you can use a bronzer of a suitable shade and hide all imperfections. If the blush is part of the image, that is, it should focus attention on the cheekbones, then its color can be brighter - coral, intense pink. However, it should only be applied to the cheeks.
Most important aspect- quality. The shade and texture must correspond to the marking. So, the powder should be homogeneous, crumble easily and not form lumps when squeezed between your fingers. The balls should not crumble. The creamy structure should be very light and not create a sticky feeling.

Types of blush and their benefits
Manufacturers of decorative cosmetics amaze with the variety of types of products they produce. You can choose the ideal option for yourself by knowing the features of each form. Today there are blushes:
- Friable - excellent in application. The layer lays down like a weightless veil, creating a soft shimmer of shades. Ideal for girls who only need to slightly highlight their natural blush.
- – the most common form of release. They do not require effort during application, they are easy to apply to the brush and spread. Suitable for any skin type. In addition, they are convenient to take with you; they easily fit into your bag pocket.
- Ball ones - characterized by an ideal combination of shades. Using pearls different colors creates a shimmering effect on the skin, which makes the face younger and fresher. This application hides all imperfections. It is difficult to overdo it with them, since they are applied to the brush in a very thin layer.
- Baked - a type of compact. The production technology of such blush differs from other types. The finished mixture is baked for a long time at temperatures above 40 degrees. This process makes the colors more saturated and the texture incredibly silky. They are easy to apply and blend with a brush, giving the skin a natural glow.
- Liquid – main feature This type is long-term. They are able to stay on the skin for up to 24 hours, without losing their attractiveness and without rolling into lumps. But a significant drawback is the difficulty of application. In order to achieve a natural shade, you will have to work hard. In addition, they are used up quite quickly.

When choosing a texture, it is important to take into account the type and select one that will not cause dryness or, conversely, excessive oiliness of the face. It is worth paying attention to hypoallergenic cosmetics; the risk of irritation when using such products is minimal. In any case, you need to base it on your own preferences.
Previously, cheap blushes were made based on mercury sulfide, until it was discovered that this causes irreversible consequences.
Blush brushes
There are special brushes for applying blush.
Each type of decorative cosmetics must be applied correctly to achieve the desired result. Foundation and blush are applied with different brushes. A properly selected tool allows you to apply cosmetics more evenly, which makes your makeup much neater.
When using a brush, much less material is consumed, which helps not to overload the face and saves cosmetics. The first thing you should pay attention to when purchasing is the naturalness of the pile. This brush will last much longer than a synthetic one.
Natural bristles do not cause allergies or skin irritation; they are soft, elastic and do not leave scratches when applying makeup, unlike cheap Chinese-made synthetics.
It is also important to check the quality of the pen itself. If the bristles are poorly attached to the base, such a brush will quickly become unusable; it will simply fall apart into 2 parts. You should not opt for it even for the sake of saving money. Different brushes are used for application and shading:
- In the first case, there is a round base, shaped like a dome, quite dense with long pile.
- In the second - the same, only bigger size and softer.
Using the blush brush is quite easy. It is enough to scoop up the material, lightly tap the base on the edge of the container so that the excess falls off, and sweep over the application area with long strokes. To blend the blush, make short movements along the border with the main color, this will create a soft transition of shades.
Timely brushes are the key to quality makeup and healthy skin. During use, dust from cosmetics, skin particles and a huge number of microbes stick to the pile. With the subsequent application of makeup, everything that is on the stubble is transferred to the skin, the previous colors are mixed, and this can significantly spoil the final result.
To avoid negative consequences, it is necessary to properly care for your brushes. Synthetic ones can be washed using regular soap. This will not affect the stiffness and shape of the pile in any way. Natural - only using shampoo or special cleansers. When washing the brush, do not rub it on your palm.
For gentle cleaning, use a container of soapy water. The bristles should be placed in the solution and rinsed a little, then rinse the brush in a glass with clean water. To make the pile dry faster, use detergents with a high alcohol content.
It is important to know! You can dry the brush strictly in a horizontal position so that it does not come into contact with the surface, away from sources of heat and open flame. Cleaning should be repeated at least once a week. It is wiser to store brushes in special cases, so they will retain their original shape for a long time.
For those with oily and problematic facial skin, it is recommended to clean the brushes after each use.

Many cosmetics manufacturers have baked product lines, so you don't have to completely change your routine or decorative means. We present to your attention detailed description such products and features of their use.
How are baked cosmetic products created?
Some creation features baked may differ, but many people use the basic principles. To create a baked product, manufacturers take a crumbly product, add water or oils to it, then mix the ingredients until a homogeneous mass is formed and put it in a special oven to create an unusual product.
Quite interesting methodology, which allows you to create a product with an unusual consistency. As a result, the shadows or blush become not very pigmented, but with a slight shine. All reflective particles are preserved, so the resulting product is quite rich and beautiful, emphasizing the softness and silkiness of the skin.
How to apply products in this category?
1. Firstly, even before purchasing baked cosmetics It is important to remember that it has special properties that differ significantly from the usual one. This is expressed not only in the appearance of blush, eye shadow or powder, but also in the method of applying them. Some packages come with brushes, but they are often not stiff enough to pick up the baked product. If you use these products wisely, they will last you a long time, and the variety of shades will become a real opportunity for you to be creative.
2. Be sure to apply baked foods on foundation. If your skin is quite oily, then use a foundation with a mattifying effect. Most often, baked makeup is applied dry, but if you want to add drama to your look, you can apply the eyeshadow wet. This way the product will be even more saturated, and you will be able to enjoy the incredible play of masses of shades. After the foundation, apply a thin layer of powder so that the powder adheres better, or a base so that the shadows do not crease and last until the end of the day.
3. Baked cosmetics must be applied with a natural bristle brush. If this concerns powder and blush, then the brush should be large enough, and if it concerns eye shadow, it should be small. This way you will achieve the most natural effect, and the shade will last on your face until the evening. Makeup artists recommend using cosmetics in this category at home, because they are quite easy to use, but give a good visible result.
4. Don't forget about the high shine of baked products. Sometimes it is a scattering of fine sand, which is not always easy to see, and sometimes it is large sparkles visible to the eye. Therefore, pay attention to the fact that baked powder or blush will not hide any visible imperfections; their main purpose is to highlight the skin. These products help to achieve the effect of healthy, glowing skin, which is quite difficult or even impossible to achieve with regular pressed powder or eye shadow.
How are baked cosmetics different from regular ones?
Many girls women they are perplexed why it is worth buying baked products, because the store offers a huge selection of different shades and textures. Therefore it is necessary to do comparative characteristics baked products and regular ones.
Baked blush or eye shadow lasts much longer than usual. This happens because they are quite tough. However, you cannot apply them with a sponge, because you will not achieve the desired effect; rather, you will simply emphasize the imperfections of the skin.
Baked eye shadow, baked powder, baked blush - these products appeared on the shelves not so long ago and quickly became in demand. Today, such cosmetics are present in the lines of many brands. What are baked cosmetics, what are the features of its manufacture and use?
The technology for producing baked cosmetics for different brands may have its own nuances, but the general principle is the same. Dry ingredients of future decorative cosmetics are taken, mixed with liquid (water, oils) and sent to special ovens, where they are heated for a long time at high temperature. The result is baked products with a unique consistency, which successfully combine the features of compact and crumbly products.
When making baked cosmetic products, shades from both similar and contrasting palettes are used. Blush and shadows usually have a pronounced shimmer - when baked, reflective and shiny particles are better preserved, and manufacturers take advantage of this. Baked shadows and blush have a silky, velvety texture and are easy to blend. As a rule, make-up with such cosmetics turns out to be more saturated, with a richer palette of shades. This makes baked beauty products an ideal option for evening makeup.

- Baked shadows should be applied to the base, preferably matte. If your goal is a rich or even dramatic make-up effect, you should apply the shadows wet.

Blush is applied according to horizontal line from nose to ear. To create a “rectangle” on the cheek.
Triangular shaped face

Long oval face
Apply blush along the ears and hairline, and blend onto the outer edges of the cheekbones.
Square shaped face
