Blush got a major promotion this year from afterthought to center stage. We saw application spreading across not only your cheeks, but your eyes and lips as well to create a monochromatic look. Bartlett recommended creamy formulas, or even lipstick, blended with an oval-shaped brush on the cheeks up into the temples and brow bone. The same hue can be placed on the eyes and tapped onto the lips with your fingers to complete the look.
The easiest way to achieve this trend? A healthy dose of cream blush. "Many of us makeup artists have already ditched powder blush," said Scibelli. "The focus is now on natural, almost glossy skin, and cream formulas really create a glow-from-within kind of look without looking too heavy or powdery."
