Getting a bright, *yet soft*, glowy pink blush effect is easy when you follow a few simple steps and remember to take a few factors into consideration when selecting specific products and shades. In the video below, I'll show you how to do just that.
Products mentioned in the video-
Cream/Gel Options:
Smashbox O Glow
MAC Cremeblend blush in So Sweet, So Easy
MAC Cream Color Base in Pink Shock
MAC Paintstick in Pink Vivid (Pro)
Powder Options:
MAC Pink Swoon blush
MAC Azalea Blossom blush ombre
*recently discovered the Smashbox powder blush in Radiance -- It works PERFECTLY for this!
**Keep in mind that these are only a few options. There are lots of softer, brighter pinks available in different brands.
Hey Tiffany! Thank you for putting out so much info and doing awesome reviews!! I am about to start my own blog and you have made me feel more comfortable. Thanks again!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tutorial! I love this blush look, I wish I knew it before I went out and got my Ladyblush Creme blush (I still love the color, but I'd like a paler and more demure cheek for my honey skin!) So Sweet, So Easy is so pretty! I can't find it on the MAC regular or pro site tho :(
ReplyDeleteHey Tiffany. Nice seeing you again :) Is there any video which you talked about ur ring? If you don't , it would be cool if you could show us ur rings to at some point? They look really pretty. Bye to ur closer, looking foward to the new one.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I don't have pink shock but I have the MAC Pro CCB in pink and it's amazing xo
ReplyDeleteI think you should talk about your ring too! haha Tiffany I'm a huge fan of yours! I love your blog and youtube channel, you make me feel better and help me so much! You are a beautiful person inside and out!
ReplyDeleteLove ya
Thank you all so much! Glad you enjoyed this one :)
ReplyDeleteLJ: So glad I could help! It was awkward for me when I first started too, but just have fun with it and you'll be comfortable in no time!
Sophie: the pink CCB would be perfect for this look too! :)
Fabian: Try it with the ladyblush-- It may seem a little too dark for this, but layer a brighter powder blush over it!
Aninha: Thank you so much for that. That's what it's all about for me- hearing that I've helped someone in the smallest way or made them feel a little better is what keeps me going with this. <3
Is there a dupe for Mac Azalea Blossom?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tutorial! I love the cool pink look, suits me so much better than a lot of the more peachy blush looks that are around at the moment!

ReplyDeleteLove the pink blush tutorial. Are you wearing a different eye look in this video or is it one of your eye makeup tutorial looks that you have posted on you tube? I really like the eye makeup and pink cheeks combo. Thanks a lot! Love your vids!
ReplyDeleteYour videos are so amazing :-)
ReplyDeleteI really love this! This is such a pretty look. I have to try it!!
ReplyDeleteYAY! I love bright pink blush, but sometimes apply too heavy handed. Now I know how to do it a better way. I'm gonna try my Bobbi Brown Sheer Pink Tint with Thrrrob by Benefit. Both cool pinks.
ReplyDeleteHi Tiffany, I absolutely love this look. I tried it with my MakeUpForever HD cream blush # 3, Truth or dare and dusted MAC azalea blossom over it and loved it. My cream blush is hot pink, but I think it works since I'm really tan right now (NC 43). Thanks again for another awesome tutorial!
ReplyDeleteActually o-glow is marketed to react to skin/ body heat, but all it does is oxidize. If you put it on a piece the tissue and leave it on there it'll still turn pink.
ReplyDeleteHi Tiffany, I combined a little bit of O-Glow and Orgasm blush today. It looks so pretty and does stay on much better than one product alone. Thank you for that!
ReplyDeleteHey Tif! I love your work
ReplyDeletesuper helpful thanks Tiffany!!! :) and looks beautiful on you :)
ReplyDeletehey Tiffany! I'm from Rio, Brazil, I'm a make-up artist too, and I'm a big fan of yours! love your videos!
ReplyDeletecan I ask you a question that has nothing to do with this post? it's about the Cover Girl lashblast mascara... which one is the best: the waterproof or the washable one? or do they offer the exact same effect?
thanks a lot!
Hi Tiffany,
ReplyDeleteI *love* this video. I've always tried to get this look done: I have pink swoon but I could never get it to stand out of my NC25 skin without building it up A LOT). A question though: Would mac's pink vivid chromacake work as well as a pink vivid paintstick or would it not be 'sticky' enough for a powder blush to be layered over it?
Aziah xxxxxx
Hi Tiffany!
ReplyDeleteI *love* this video!!! I've been trying to get this look done for ages but have never been able to do so. Just a question though: Would MAC's chromacake in pink vivid have the same effect as their paintstick - or would I need something 'stickier' as a base?
xxxxxx
Just realized that my wonky internet connection which told me that I couldnt posted the comments (hence the difference versions with the same substance) has made multiple entries on your blog (SO SORRY :()
ReplyDeleteWanted to include this question: Would MAC's cool pink blushcreme be alright as well? I'm an NC25 but for some reason pink blushes like Pink Swoon/Coygirl always tend to turn out warmer on my cheeks if I don't layer it over a highlighter >.<
Sorry for the crazy multiple entries again :S
Love this look!
ReplyDeleteHello Tiffany!
ReplyDeleteThanks for these useful tips!
I would like to suggest you a video.
Why don't you create a look using your fingers instead of brushes? This could be fun or at least intesting.
Kisses & Hugs
