Sunset Flush, Watercolor Cheeks, & More Blush Trends You'll See This Summer
Briefly

The article discusses summer blush trends influenced by the warm tones of sunset. Makeup expert Cynthia Di Meo suggests using a combination of liquid blushes to mimic the golden hour glow. It explores techniques like mixing blush with highlighter for a dewy finish, as well as the 'concealing' method to soften blush intensity. The emerging K-beauty aegyo-sal trend promotes blush placement under the eyes for a youthful look. Simple application tips, such as dabbing blush on the nose, are also highlighted for a natural sun-kissed effect.
According to Bina Khan, makeup artist and co-founder of Just B Cosmetics, the K-beauty aegyo-sal trend is coming stateside. "Aegyo-sal is the cute under-eye puff that pops when you smile," she tells Bustle. "Popularized by K-pop stars, this blush placement highlights that area for a youthful, radiant glow." Her tip for beginners? Apply your blush just below your under-eye skin, focusing on the apple of your cheek with a peachy shade to brighten and subtly color-correct.
It can be easy to go overboard with blush - everyone's done it. To keep things under control, makeup pros recommend the "concealing" method of applying concealer after blush. This approach, inspired by the underpainting technique, softens your flush and lets you dial back the intensity. "This helps diffuse harsh lines and provides more control over adjusting the pigment to your comfort level," Di Meo says.
