The clever blush placement Charlize Theron uses for a subtly lifted look

Charlize Theron is seen wearing soft pink blush and with her hair in a slicked-back updo whilst attending the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project 2024 Block Party at Universal Studios Backlot on July 13, 2024 in Universal City, California/ in a pink watercolour paint-style template.

While blush is often used to add a natural flush to our cheeks, it can also fulfil the same role as our bronzers and contour creams in creating lift and definition - as Charlize Theron’s own subtle but effective blush placement proves…

Though the best foundations and best bronzers are often the first to spring to mind when we think of makeup staples, a flattering blush - that mimics your complexion's natural flush - can be equally as essential. In fact, it can actually take the place of your sculpting products, especially for those seeking a more parred-down finish. The key lies in the application. For instance, adding a pop of rosy pink to the apples of your cheeks will afford a healthy glow to your skin, whilst blending your go-to shade upwards and along your cheekbone will lift and define.
