Hot blush summer has given way to cozy blush fall, so don’t be afraid to swap rosy tones in favor for a darker, plummy red. (I love dotting a stain on the apples of my cheeks that makes it look like I’ve just come in from the cold.) “A great and easy way to create a beautiful, simple, monochromatic burgundy look is to use Milk Makeup: Lip + Cheek Cream Blush Stick in shade Muse and softly create a stained cheek and lip look,” says Razzano. Cream formulas tend to be a little more forgiving in terms of color payoff, but if you’re ready for a dramatic, flushed look, don’t hesitate to try a powder version like NYX Buttermelt Blush in Back and Butta (a favorite of Siard’s).
