Before I hop on my soapbox about why Im obsessed with this blush, lets get into some backstory.
I used to hate blush granted, theblush options for dark skinwhen I started wearing makeup were abysmal.
I always feared a bright flush of color on my cheeks would make me look like a clown.

There was a bit of a learning curve when I first tried the blush.
Also, as pigmented as the blush is, it’s not overwhelming.
In addition to the impressive color payoff, the shade range is also chef’s kiss.
New York City-based makeup artistOlga Soloveykeeps these blushes stocked in her kit for this very reason.
The answer is: however you want.
There really is no wrong way to apply this blush.
I even use it on cheeks and lips, says Solovey.
The Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Blush is $25 and available now atsephora.com.
