With blush you can give the face a fresh touch and model the facial features. The aim is to make the rest of the face appear brighter and fresher. But you should use the right blush color for your skin tone. The goal is to choose a shade that matches the color of your cheeks when they blush naturally. But blush can also make your evening makeup look so much better. Our experts will tell you which blush suits which skin type.
Skin type light
Women with fair skin should avoid brightly colored colors. Light pink, peach or light coral tones will make your porcelain skin shine. Opt for a blusher with a creamy texture that gives your skin a natural finish. The cream blush blends well and looks very natural.
Dab the blush onto your cheeks with your fingers or gently blend it with a blush brush. Too much product or using saturated tones creates an absurdClown-Look. Avoid a makeup faux pas by choosing the right blush intensity for a natural cheek flush.
Skin type medium
Similar to fair skin types, pink and peach tones are also the best choice here. However, you should use a deeper shade at a time, or apply a little more until you reach the desired intensity. A rich pink and even certain mauve tones will flatter your skin - especially if you apply the blush in the right places. Find out by smiling and seeing where your cheekbones protrude. Apply a little blush to the outer cheekbones in a crescent shape.
Tip: If you have olive skin, avoid cooler shades like plum.
Skin type Dark
Deep reds, oranges and purples are the ideal blush colors for those with dark skin. The trick is to choose blush in bright colors. These colors, in contrast toPowder pink, will make your skin look radiant instead of pale. Choose a fuchsia shade (like a dark vibrant orchid) if your skin tone seems warmer. Deep tangerine tones look great on a cool guy.

Rouge as a powder or cream?
Once you've found the right shade, choosing a texture is easy: cream blush and blush sticks work well for normal to dry skin, and powder blush for normal to oily skin. Here's why: Like a moisturizer, velvety cream blushes will penetrate the skin better and provide moisture. The powder blush, on the other hand, has a mattifying effect and can help remove excess oil from the skin.
Rougepuder:This should be your go-to everyday blush. It feels light on the skin and is very easy to apply with a brush. Due to its mattifying effect, the powder blush is perfect for slightly shiny skin.
Rougecreme:The Cream Blush is a synonym for long-lasting blush. It lasts a very long time, especially when fixed with powder blush. This product is perfect for women who spend a lot of time outside. The formula is extra moisturizing - a quality you would love in drier air conditions. Apply this blush with your fingers and set with a matching powder blush to ensure the color doesn't fade.
Liquid Blush / Lip & Cheek Stain: The so-called stains give lips and cheeks natural-looking color accents. They adapt to every skin tone and ensure a natural, rosy look. The waterproof formula gives the skin a long-lasting glow.
