Mix These Ingredients And Make Your Own Blush At Home
Do you often worry about the chemical overload in store-bought products? Do you skip using most of the makeup essentials including the blush due to this fear? Then, this article is to help and guide you on the technique of making a cream blush at home in a simple manner. You can save some bucks and look great too.
Why Is A Cream Blush Used?
A cream blush blends easily into your skin, giving your skin a more natural blush, helping you avoid that cakey look. It gives that moist texture to the skin too. A natural cream blush can help all skin types. It helps dry skin as it moisturizes from within, adding the pink glow. With a little twist, there are options to make a blush to treat oily skin as well.
When you use a creamy blush, rather than a powdered one, the resulting look is more natural. In places with cold climate, a cream blush gives a moisturized tint too. Further, a cream blush is more long-lasting. It gives a bolder and more versatile look than the powdered version.
By making your own cream blush, you get to decide what exactly goes into it, and you get to customize the colour too. You can apply the blush using a makeup sponge or your fingers too. You need to use only a small amount of the blush, and it goes a long way.

Alternative DIY Recipe For Cream Blush
Ingredients:
•
1
tbsp
shea
butter
•
¼
tsp
of
any
natural
food
colour
of
your
choice
•
8
drops
of
tea
tree
essential
oil
(optional)
How To Prepare:
1. Heat shea butter in a double boiler on your stove, until it has melted completely.
2. Stir in the natural food colour (should be finely powdered). Choose the colour to match your desired shape. Use about quarter teaspoon of total powder for a tablespoon of shea butter.
3. Add 5 to 10 drops of tea tree oil. This is optional, but tea tree oil has antimicrobial properties, and hence helps by fighting acne on your skin, and helps the product last longer.
4. Mix well and pour this mixture into a clean aluminium tin or container. Allow it to cool and harden up.
5. Your blush is ready. You can even blend it onto your cheeks with your fingers, using a tiny amount at a time. Use powdered blush or face powder to set it, if you so desire.
Some Tips:
• Add colours to a pre-made lotion, and it will give you a smooth blush/bronzer too. The lotion will serve as a base. You can experiment with the colours to suit your desired shade. When applied on the skin, it would appear a shade lighter than what it looks like on the container.
• If you are adding colours to a homemade lotion, then adding vegetable wax will give a thicker and long-lasting blush/bronzer, while using aloe will give you a smoother and subtle mix.
• If you wish to get more of the rose or pink colour, then add more reddish mica powders, while adding cocoa powder or bronze mica, will give you a bronzer or tan mixture.
