How to create a harmonious makeup look
Blush as Eyeshadow
Blush is naturally applied to the cheeks for most people – but it can do much more. When used correctly, it connects the eyes and complexion for a particularly harmonious overall look and creates a balanced, natural result with just a few simple steps.
Why blush can do more than just highlight the cheeks
A harmonious foundation relies on the colors in the face being coordinated. A small makeup tip with a big impact is to use the blush shade on the eyes as well. This makes the transitions softer and the entire look especially cohesive.
Gentle rose tones in particular give the eyes a natural freshness without being overpowering. At the same time, you save on extra products and can easily create a look that appears seamless.
Use blush as eyeshadow
With a blending brush, applying the blush is very easy. For the look shown, the shade Berry 703 is used. Take only a small amount of product and gently tap off any excess powder. Then apply the color with loose, circular motions in the crease and softly blend it onto the movable eyelid. You can easily build up the intensity step by step and customize the look to your liking.
💡 Tip: If you have hooded eyes, apply the blush not only in the crease but also blend the color slightly above it. This way, the eyeshadow remains visible even with open eyes and gives your gaze more depth.
How to give your look even more expression
For more definition, apply Eyeliner in small strokes directly along the lash line. If you like, you can create a small wing at the outer corner of the eye. The color Malve 116 is especially suitable.
To visually open the eye, a light, shimmering shade is suitable. The Eyeshadow Rosenholz 307 gives the inner part of the movable eyelid a subtle shimmer and makes the eyes shine.
To complete your eye makeup, finish by applying a layer of Mascara to your lashes.
Apply blush to the cheeks
Now apply the same blush shade to your cheeks. This way, your eyes and complexion pick up the same color, making the entire look especially harmonious.
