Powder blushers are ideal for adding colour and life to the skin, offering precise control over intensity and a smooth, blendable finish. There are several options depending on the finish: matte blushes are ideal for a natural look and for oily skin, as they reduce shine; satin blushes provide a subtle glow and are perfect for those looking for a luminous touch; while shimmer blushes offer a radiant effect, enhancing more eye-catching looks.
Powder blushes blend perfectly with different types of foundation. When applying over liquid or cream foundations, it's important to wait for the foundation to set to avoid streaking and ensure a well blended application. These blushes also work well with bronzers, as together they can define and enhance the contours of the face. Adding a touch of highlighter at strategic points, such as the cheekbones or the bridge of the nose, enhances the structure of the face for a fresher look.
To achieve a natural blush with powder blush, make sure your skin is well moisturised and apply your foundation as usual. Choose a blush brush with soft, rounded bristles, preferably a medium-sized one. Smile lightly and apply blusher to the ‘apples’ of the cheeks, blending towards the temples with gentle strokes to blend naturally, starting with a small amount of product and gradually adding more if you wish to intensify the tone while maintaining a smooth finish.
Skin-friendly ingredients: Look for powder blushers that contain ingredients such as vitamin E or other ingredients that are gentle and suitable for all skin types. These ingredients not only add colour, but also care for your skin, adding a touch of softness. Like the powder blusher Butter Believe it!

A powder blusher typically lasts 18-24 months if stored in a cool, dry place. To maximise its longevity, avoid direct exposure to light and heat.
The choice between cream and powder blush depends on skin type and desired finish. Powder blush tends to offer a matte finish, while cream blush gives a juicier, more luminous effect. But you can combine the two for a more powerful result.
For a unique effect, combine light and dark shades of powder blush. Apply a lighter shade in the centre of the cheeks for a touch of freshness and use a darker shade at the ends to give definition, blending well for a more harmonious finish.
