I was always a one blush kind of gal; I didn’t really understand why anyone would need more than just one at a time. This all changed when I was swatching shades of a new blush launch and could not narrow down which one I wanted because I wanted them all. In that moment, I learned that a blush shade not only compliments your skin tone but can also compliment the type of makeup look you’re going for. A warmer look has a warmer blush, and a cooler look gets a cooler blush and so on and so forth.
All this to say, I now own multiple blushes and lately I can’t seem to help myself with each blush launch because the formulas just seem to be getting better and better and lucky for you, I don’t gatekeep, so check out some of the top blushes to add to your cart right now below. —Sidra Sheikh
Haus Labs Color Fuse Powder Blush ($44) The blush I was referring to above that I could not narrow down which shade I loved the most, this is it. Available in six shades, this blush was originally released as a limited edition in 2023 but due to popular demand it was reintroduced this year and is now here to stay for good. Not only are the shades gorgeous, the pigment is strong, but blends effortlessly and all that while being clean, vegan, cruelty-free and made with kindness!
Basma Beauty’s The Cream Blush ($38) Curated to suit various skin tones, this blush comes in six shades and has been a crowd pleaser since its launch earlier this year. It is a lightweight, buttery-soft formula that is meant to easily melt into the skin to give a natural, radiant finish. The coverage can range from sheer to bold and can also double as a lip tint!
Quo Beauty Duo Blush Stick ($14) A convenient duo blush stick with two shades in one. The blushes can be used individually or at the same time to give a blush contour effect. Pigmented and creamy this blush has a demi-matte finish and is available in three stick options.
E.L.F. Cosmetics Camo Liquid Blush ($9.99) Considered to be a dupe for the ever popular Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush, this formula gives you an effortless pop of colour that looks natural. It has a very strong pigment and a little goes a long way. Available in nine shades, it is truly a diamond in the rough especially at that price point.
Stila Blush & Bronze Hydro-Blur Cheek Duo ($42) A dewy blush with the bonus of a bronzer. This duo stick has a creamy-gel blush and bronzer to create a glassy skin look. Available in six shades, this option can range from sheer to medium coverage, not to mention the packaging is everything!
