Last week’s Winter Storm Ulmer makes it hard to believe, but today is the first day of spring! I don’t know about you, but I am excited to break out my spring dresses and cute sandals and flats. I’m ready for those April showers bringing May flowers. And let’s not forget sunshine and ice cream! The change of a season is also the perfect time to freshen up your makeup look.
An easy way to freshen up your makeup routine for spring is with a new blush color. Maskcara Beauty makes it simple! One of the coolest features is the magnetic palette system. You can easily swap out colors without sacrificing room in your makeup bag. At only $14 a pop with free shipping, adding a fresh blush color is an affordable way to change your makeup routine for spring and other seasons.
I’ll share six of my favorite fresh blush colors for spring. But first, let’s talk about the Maskcara blushes. Confession time: I did not wear blush before Maskcara Beauty entered my life. I am all about keeping my makeup routine simple, and that meant I did very little beyond a tinted moisturizer.
Maskcara simplified highlighting and contouring for me. Therefore it felt like a no-brainer to add a blush while I was at it. The color was right there in my quad compact, after all! Boy, oh boy, what a difference it made! I have a lot of natural redness, so I love the coverage Maskcara foundation gives. The Maskcara Blush adds life back into the face but only where you want color. I also love how pigmented these blush colors are. The cream formula makes them blend like a dream – along with all the other added benefits of cream foundation. Lastly, the Maskcara blush colors are actually lip and cheek colors. Meaning you can use them for your lip color as well! Talk about making lives easier and clutter free, am I right?
Now that you know just a few reasons why I love the Maskcara blush products. Let’s breakdown the 6 I would recommend you add to freshen up your palette this spring.
Spring Blush: Baby Watermelon
Dreaming of summer days eating watermelon? Get a head start with this sweet shade! Baby Watermelon is the perfect warm pink lip and cheek. I love changing to more pink tones for spring. After a long winter I think we are all ready for that youthful glow to our cheeks. Right? This is simply sweet, but not too bold.
Spring Blush: Dahlia
Named for a flower, how could Dahlia not make the list of spring blush colors? I’ll be honest, this one looks really intimidating in the tin. It is often described as a Barbie pink color. But put that baby on and you’ll love the pop of pink it adds to your cheeks! This is more bold than the muted baby watermelon. I tlooks amazing on warmer, medium skin tones and cool, fair skintones. Pair it with a chunky pair of sunglasses, a fun winged liner, and a cruise through the Black Hills.
Coral Spring Blush: Desert Sunset
Of all my spring blush recommendations, this is probably the most neutral. Sometimes you just want a little coral, ya know? Desert Sunset is a glossy blush from the Maskcara lip and cheek collection. When you apply you’re left with a warm, dewy glow and just the right amount of color. I like to layer this with some of the other blush colors when I still want a bit more color but the warmth from desert sunset.
Shimmer Spring Blush: Hollywood Lip and Cheek
If you are looking for a dupe to the Nars Orgasm blush, this is your gal! Hollywood is a rosy pink with gorgeous gold flecks. I love adding this one to my look when I don’t want to layer on an illuminator. You’ll love using a cream formula over the powdered Nars version because it blends like a dream and hydrates your skin. Plus it’s only $14 and doubles as a lip color. Does it get any better?
Minimal Spring Blush Color: Petal
Petal is lightest of the Maskcara blush colors. This pale pink adds the softest hint of color to your cheeks. I love this color on medium skin tones, or for people without a lot of redness. Petal is also a gloss formula, so it’s perfect for layering or adding a subtle bit of color to your lips. If you are just getting used to blush, this may be your new go-to this spring!
Pink Grapefruit
The Pink Grapefruit blush color from Maskcara Beauty is one step up from Baby Watermelon. It is still that gorgeous warm, rosy pink color but with a little more oomph. I absolutely love this one for ladies with more mature skin especially. It adds the perfect youthful glow!
