Hey, Glaminai here — blush isn’t just about color; it’s about energy. The right shade can make you look awake, fresh, and balanced — even without foundation.

🎨 How to Find Your Shade

Skin Tone

Best Blush Family

Why It Works

Glaminai Recommends

Fair / Cool

Soft pinks, peachy rose

Mimics natural flush

Glossier Cloud Paint in Puff, Rare Beauty Encourage

Medium / Neutral

Warm corals, rosy nudes

Adds warmth without orange

Milani Luminoso, Fenty Cheeks Out Petal Poppin

Tan / Olive

Apricot, terracotta

Balances green undertones

NARS Taj Mahal, Tower 28 Golden Hour

Deep

Berry, brick red, plum

Rich pigments show true on skin

Danessa Myricks Vision Flush, Fenty Rosé Latte

✨ Placement Matters

  • Lifted look: Apply above cheekbone and blend toward temple.

  • Soft flush: Tap on apples of cheeks for youthful glow.

  • Draped effect: Blend from cheek to eyelid for a blown-out, editorial vibe.

💬 Ask Glaminai to find your perfect blush pairing based on your skin tone and undertone.

Pro Tip: Cream blush first, powder second = longer wear and color depth.
