The proof with the ‘sunset blush’, the latest inspiration that has gone viral on social networks. The idea? Treat yourself to a vitaminized complexion, sunset effect, just to immerse yourself a little in advance in the sweetness of summer.
An explosion of warm colors, a sunset, and a touch of extravagance: the ideal trio for summer makeup that promises to be ‘caliente’. This is exactly what we find in the latest popular trend on TikTok, ‘sunset blush’, which to date has several million views. At stake ? A host of tutorials exposing the workings of this new inspiration as pigmented as it is luminous, and just as many comments praising its merits. It must be recognized that the social users have this time demonstrated originality with a beauty look that is clearly off the beaten track. Exit the pink blush, too classic, make way for vibrant shades that smell like summer.
If the cosmetics sector has often drawn inspiration from that of gastronomy in recent months, it seems that it is now drawing on the riches of nature. A spectacle which, while waiting for the arrival of sunny days, can be seen on the cheekbones of the most followed influencers and users on the Asian platform. The idea of this inspiration is simple: simply transform your complexion into a burning sunset using a gradient of shades of red, pink, or orange blush, enhanced with a touch of golden highlighter. Be careful, to achieve this summer look, it is better to opt for liquid textures, more suited to the desired result.
Once all the products are combined, simply apply them in strategic locations. As is often the case, the techniques differ depending on the tutorial viewed, but in all cases it involves creating a color gradient. Starting from the temple, it is advisable to apply the lightest colors, so first pink, then move on to red and/or orange, going down at an angle towards the cheekbones. As for the highlighter, it should be applied above the blush – just under the outer corner of the eye. The final step is to blend each blush, one by one, with the highlighter, using a brush or sponge. The result is most surprising.
For several months, blush has been unanimously popular on the Chinese social network. This is evidenced by the latest trends which have created a buzz, such as ‘douyin blush’, for a radiant (and safe) sunburn effect, white blush, to enhance the cheekbones and sculpt the face, and purple blush. , to accentuate the healthy glow effect, and more recently the ‘L Shape’ method to apply blush without making any mistakes. A craze which shows that blush is indeed at the heart of makeup trends, even rising to the top of the most coveted products.
