How do you know which blush colors will naturally fuse to your skin?
Well, that’s where this guide comes in handy.
How to find your most natural blush color.
Here’s how to find your best shade match.
Skin tone.
With that in mind, you’ve got the option to whittle down your picks.
Fair skin.
Think baby pinks, lilacs, anything with a soft diffusion of pigment.
Medium skin.
Medium-toned skin can get away with pretty much any blush depth, from sheer pinks to gorgeous berry shades.
Deep skin.
As Medhin mentions above, those with deeper skin tones want to consider using highly pigmented blushes.
Otherwise, the shade will likely fall flat.
Ah, here’s where things get trickier.
See, your undertones matter just as much (if not more) when picking a blush shade.

“It makes the look feel more elevated and is easier on the eyes,” notes Medhin.

The fingertip is a slightly more accurate area to test.
Try it on.
But still, trying it on will give you the most accurate read.
The takeaway.
Blush is meant to be playful, so go ahead and choose any shade that makes your heart sing.
