Makeup Artist Tips for Wearing Matte Blush Without Overdoing It

Matte Cream Blush vs. Matte Powder Blush

Gabbay says a matte powder blush will create a more airbrushed look, while a matte cream blush will appear more natural. For a powder option, we love the Maybelline New York Fit Me Blush or the Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Powder Blush.For a cream pick, try the NYX Professional Makeup Wonder Stick Blush or the Giorgio Armani Beauty Neo Nude Color Melting Cream Blush. 

If you want to take your blush look to the next level, Gabbay recommends bringing the color past the cheek area. “I love taking blush into the socket of eyes for a cohesive and polished finish,” she says.
