I have to be honest here…for years, I didn’t even wear blush! Finding blush was so difficult I found it easier to just skip blush instead of looking like a clown. When working at Sephora, the best selling blush was Orgasm by Nars. Although this blush could work for me if I apply enough of it, bright pink blushes just weren’t something I felt most confident pulling off.

As more & more brands have created more products for people of deeper skin tones, finding blushes have become so much easier. Blush is a great way to add color to your face to help brighten your appearance after you even out your skin tone with foundation. It helps to add color & even can help sculpt your face if applied properly.

Here are some of my favorite blushes for people with brown skin. These blushes can work for women of medium, dark & deep skin tones. These options may come in many different colors & hues, don’t be afraid of color. Our skin is built to handle color so rock these blushes with confidence boo!

I hope you all found this post helpful. Don’t be scared of color & if you happen to apply too much color than you are comfortable with; you can always add translucent powder on top of it to mute the color a bit. This is a great way to set your cream and liquid blushes as well.
