When it comes to lighter skin tones, its best to select colors like light pinks and pastels.
For cool undertones, stick to cool blushes like rosy pink, berry, and plum.

In other words: When in doubt, go rosy.
Its all about the story youre trying to tell.
Consider Blush Texture
Color matters, but texture is just as important as picking the perfect shade.
Blushes with lots of glitter are definitely a vibe, often more suitable for low-light, high-glam scenarios.
Itll look natural and soft.
This adds volume where its placed and gives the complexion a fresh radiance, says Young.
For a more sculpted effect, use neutral undertone blush on top of the cheekbones.
This will lift and shape the face.
