‘GLAZED BLUSH’: THE HOTTEST BEAUTY TREND OF 2024
Lips and nails have taken center stage in the beauty world over the past year, but now it’s time to turn it up a notch and redirect. According to Glamour UK, the latest makeup trend to hit the beauty scene is called “glazed blush,” and it’s all about creating perfect juicy cheeks.
Dewy, flushed cheeks are what this trend is all about, and it’s pretty easy to create. As per the publication, the look can easily be achieved using cream blushes and liquid highlighters.
“Cream blush is perfect for creating a healthy flush, and you can easily blend your blush with your fingers or beauty blender,” advises top celebrity makeup artist Ash K Holm tells Glamour.
“Glazed blush is all about creating an ultra-flushed, luminous finish to lift and brighten the face. Think glossy, balmy, and radiant — and anything but minimal. And the best part? It can work with any shade or skin type,” Aimee Connolly, makeup artist and founder of Sculpted by Aimee tells POPSUGAR.
Don’t have liquid blush? Simply mix a powder blush with a bit of liquid highlighter and dab it onto your cheeks with your fingertips.
Placement is, however, everything. Opt to place the blush on the apple of the cheeks or slightly above it for a more lifted look.
