Makeup Artist's Blush Hack for a Natural Sun-Kissed Look

Makeup artist Erica Taylor, known for her expertise in makeup for women over 40, recently shared a simple yet effective technique for applying blush to achieve a natural, sun-kissed look. Taylor, who boasts 25 years of experience and is a member of the L’Oréal Paris Makeup Artist League of Expert, uses Kosas Heartbeat blush to illustrate her technique. "You can't just go bright in like that," Taylor cautions, demonstrating how heavy application can lead to an unnatural appearance. Instead, she advocates for a gentle application, using a soft, fluffy brush to blend the blush seamlessly onto the apples of the cheeks, hairline, and tip of the nose. "Graze the surface," she advises. To complete the look, Taylor suggests applying bronzer to create a natural flush. The technique, which has already garnered thousands of views online, is a simple way to achieve a radiant look without appearing overdone. This video tutorial is a testament to Taylor's expertise and her ability to provide practical advice to her audience.
