Draping is the secret to a healthy just-saw-my-crush flush. To ensure skin looks rosy instead of sunburned, choose a muted pink blush and build up the product gradually.

Just Draped
Forget eyes and lips and make skin the focus. Use a bit of concealer to even out any areas. Then practice the draping technique with a neutral pink blush. Only a tiny amount of product is needed to enliven the face.

Rosy Cheeks
Draping works on all skin tones. Those with darker complexions may just need to add an extra layer of color to ensure the blush pops against skin. To further enhance rosy red cheeks, apply red lipstick. Twist hair into a cute updo so the draped blush will be fully visible.

Want to try something different than matching draped blush with eyeshadow and lipstick? Coordinate the blush with a hair accessory. An oversized flower is one of our favorite options. Buck tradition altogether by mixing graphic eyeliner, metallic eyeshadow and a neutral lipstick.

All About the Cheeks
For a new twist on a no-makeup makeup look, make cheeks the (subtle) focal point. Stipple on a peach blush, brush brows, add some lip balm and go out the door.
