Using Your Fingers, Sponge, or Brush

When it comes to applying cream blush, you have a few options: fingers, sponges, or brushes. Each method offers a slightly different finish and level of control, so it's worth experimenting to find the one that works best for you.

Using your fingers is a popular choice because the warmth of your fingers helps blend the product seamlessly into your skin. Start by dabbing a small amount of cream blush onto the apples of your cheeks and gently blend it outwards towards your temples. For a more precise application, use a sponge or a brush. Sponges, such as beauty blenders, provide a natural, airbrushed finish, while brushes allow for more control and precision.

For a flawless application, consider using the UNDONE BEAUTY Seamless Face and Body Palm Brush. Its unique design ensures even distribution of product, giving you a natural, radiant glow.

Monochrome Look with a Fresh Color

A monochrome makeup look is all about using a single color palette to create a cohesive and harmonious appearance. This technique is perfect for achieving a natural, fresh-faced look with cream blush.

Start by applying a cream blush in a shade that complements your skin tone. For a sun-kissed glow, opt for warm, peachy tones. You can also use the same blush on your eyelids and lips to create a unified look. The UNDONE BEAUTY Lip to Cheek 3-in-1 Cream Palette is a fantastic choice for this technique. It offers sheer, medium, and intense opacities, allowing you to customize your look with ease.

Layering is key to achieving a monochrome look. Begin with a sheer layer of blush on your cheeks, then build up the color gradually. Apply a similar shade to your eyelids and lips for a cohesive appearance. This technique not only saves time but also ensures a natural, radiant glow that lasts all day.

Sunkissed Glow Blush

For a sun-kissed glow, focus on applying blush to the high points of your face where the sun naturally hits. This includes the tops of your cheeks, the bridge of your nose, and a touch on your forehead.
