The Best Blushes To Perfect Your COLD GIRL MAKEUP
PC: @angelinafrerk
Beauty-lovers particularly enjoy changing up not only their skincare, but their makeup with the seasons. And this winter, the it-look that had Tiktok girlies in a chokehold was the cold girl makeup look. What is cold girl makeup, you ask? It’s pretty much enhancing that frosty glow — red noses and glazed cheekbones — that make you look like you’ve been standing in the snow for a few hours. And while you’re going to need a number of beauty products to achieve this look, like a winter foundation, some highlighter, and cool-toned eyeshadow, the most notable item needed is the right shade of blush.
The cold girl makeup blush is different from your summer or fall blush by having more of a pink-hue. Summers see orange or coral-toned blushes, fall sees dark rouge hues, and the winter makes way for some rosy pink options. The key is to add some blush to the top of your nose as well, to mimic how the cold reaches your snoot. We’ve gathered the best cold girl makeup blushes so you can achieve this cute and frosty look yourself.
Anastasia Stick Blush in Pink Dahlia
My personal favorite winter blush is this stick blush from Anastasia. It’s easy to apply and spreads just how I need it to — never too much and never too little.
Refy Beauty Cream Blush in Rose
If you love a cream blush, then this option from Refy beauty is the way to go. It’s buildable, meaning you can make the hue pop as much or as little as desired.
Merit Beauty Flush Balm in Stockholm
For a true pink, this Stockholm blush has got that flirty tone down to a T. She’s very rosy and will truly make your cheeks pop in a playful manner.
Glossier Cloud Paint in Wisp
Wisp is a soft lilac color that feels a little more mischievous than the previous pink option. It also has a little more depth, making it pop on your skin.
Dior Rouge Blush in Rose Popeline
This dusty pink is feminine and soft, gentle and respectable, and also becomes the perfect pairing piece to whatever highlighter you choose.
Saie Dew Blush in Chilly
As the name suggests, the “Chilly” blush is practically made for the winter. The best winter blushes must have a bright glow to them, and this option certainly wakes up the face.
