What Is The Best Blush For Darker Skin Tones?

Blush can make or break your beauty look, so finding the best blush for your complexion is essential. These pro makeup tips will help you find the perfect blush for darker skin. 

Benefits of Blush on Darker Skin

The best blush for darker skin tones pulls any makeup look together, using the power of color to energize the complexion. It’s a helpful tool for expressing your individuality and unique beauty style, whether you’re going for a bold, head-turning cheek look or a soft and sweet moment. 

Even when you are opting for a more subtle wash of color, blush adds a bright, healthy flush to the skin while defining the cheekbones and accentuating your features. 

What to Look for in a Blush for Dark Skin

When choosing a blush that will suit your complexion, the biggest factor you need to consider is the color. 

Of course, you’ll want to reach for a hue that fits your unique makeup style. That said, there are a few things you should keep in mind to find a color that matches your vibe and works harmoniously with your complexion for the most flattering look. 

For darker skin tones, it’s best to avoid lighter blush hues, such as baby pinks and other pastel colors. These can make the complexion look ashy and dull. Instead, opt for hues on the medium to dark end of the color spectrum. Think berry, plum, deep red, bright fuschia, and bronze. 

To zero in on the ultimate blush shades for your complexion, look for colors that complement your skin’s undertone (the more subtle tint underneath the surface of the skin). There are three categories: warm, cool, and neutral. 

Those with warm undertones can illuminate their complexion with blush shades in the coral, peach, and warm pink families. 

If you have cool undertones, blushes in the berry, rose, deeper mauve, and cool pink families will look striking on your skin.

Neutral undertone complexions can pull off a range of hues, but look particularly beautiful when paired with softer pinks, mauves, and roses. 

Beyond color, we also have to talk about the type of blush formula. This choice comes down to your personal preference. Powder blushes offer an ethereal wash of color, while cream blushes add natural dewiness to the cheeks. 

Top Patrick Ta Blush Picks for Darker Skin Tones

Patrick Ta’s Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo will take your makeup artistry to the next level. The cutting-edge palette features both a powder and cream blush, which can be used separately or layered together for a rich, dewy look with maximum color payoff. 

This innovative blush palette is available in a wide selection of hues that beautifully illuminate darker skin tones. 

One of our favorite hues for dark complexions with warm undertones is She’s Vibrant, a bright pink coral. Another show-stopper is She Left Me on Red, a warm vivid red. If you prefer something a touch softer, try the illuminating golden peach color of She’s the Moment or the peachy pink of She’s Flushed.

For darker skin tones with cool undertones, a stunning go-to shade for daily wear is She Goes to the Gym, a cool mauve rose. If you prefer pink blushes, you’ll love She’s Giving (a vibrant pink) and Just Enough (a softer pink). For a little more drama, reach for She’s Wanted, a rich berry.

Finally, for darker complexions with neutral undertones, we especially love She’s Blushing, a radiance-boosting rosey taupe. Another great option is She’s That Girl. It’s the ideal soft pink, as it isn’t too light for darker complexions. For something more vibrant, She’s a Doll is the ultimate bright pink. 

Blush Application Tips for Deeper Complexions 

Whether you’re working with a cream or a powder, it’s best to start with a lighter application and then build to your desired color intensity. This is especially true when using deeper and more vibrant hues. Remember that it’s always easy to add more color, but it’s harder to fix if you’ve overapplied! 

When using a powder blush, use a fluffy brush to diffuse the pigment into the skin, layering until you’ve created your perfect cheek look. With cream formulas, use a dense brush to press the blush into the skin. Be sure to gently blend away any harsh lines for the most natural, glossy glow. 

For a fresh and dimensional makeup look, we recommend trying Patrick’s signature blush technique: applying cream blush over powder blush. Simply apply the powder with a fluffy brush, and then use a dense brush to stamp the cream into the skin over the powder.

Blush is the finishing touch that completes any makeup look, whether you’re going for something soft and natural or bright and bold. A shade and formula that works seamlessly with your skin tone is the secret weapon for a gorgeous beauty moment.
