Blush colors for your personal color

Blush stands in for your natural flush, so its undertone has to match yours. The right shade reads as a good day; the wrong one reads as makeup. Here is the blush direction for each warm/cool and season type.

Blush for Spring

Bright, yellow-based shades suit Spring: apricot, peach beige, coral brown. Light Spring glows most in a pale, clear apricot flush. Deep blue-based pinks tend to sit apart from the skin.

Blush for Summer

Softly muted cool pinks suit Summer: dusty pink, soft mauve, rose brown. Soft Summer settles best into a low-chroma, hazy rose. Orange corals can muddy the skin.

Blush for Autumn

Deep, warm shades suit Autumn: terracotta, bronze brown, golden copper. Dark Autumn carries a brick-leaning terracotta with real depth. Pastel pinks can float above the skin.

Blush for Winter

Clear, blue-based shades suit Winter: cool rose, plum brown, icy pink. Bright Winter sharpens with one sweep of a clear, cold rose. Hazy beige tones flatten the face.

Cream or powder

Pick the texture for the finish. Cream blush melts in for a lit-from-within flush; powder holds its color longer and layers predictably. Placement is universal: start at the highest point of the cheek when you smile and diffuse toward the temple.
