Looking for a quick, easy, and glam way to take years off your face—without needles or filters? Say hello to the blush placement hack that beauty pros swear by. This face-lifting blush technique is all about strategic application to give your cheeks that youthful pop and your face a naturally lifted effect. And the best part? All you need is your favorite Liquid Blush from Bonjour Babe Beauty.
Why Blush Placement Matters
When it comes to blush, it’s not just about the color—it’s all about where you place it. The right blush placement tips can instantly define your cheekbones, lift your features, and create a soft, radiant glow. It’s one of the easiest anti-aging makeup tips out there, and it takes less than a minute to do.
The Face-Lifting Blush Trick
Instead of applying blush to the apples of your cheeks (like we were taught in the early 2000s), apply your Liquid Blush slightly higher on your cheekbones, sweeping it up toward your temples. This technique creates the illusion of lifted, sculpted cheeks—think snatched but natural.
Here's how to do it:
- Choose a Liquid Blush with a dewy, buildable finish—our Bonjour Babe Beauty Liquid Blush in “Cuties” is a fave for that soft pinky-peach glow.
- Apply a small dot of blush to the highest point of your cheekbone (not the apples).
- Blend upward using a brush, sponge, or your fingers—always lifting the color toward your temple.
- Want a fuller look? Add a tiny bit of blush just above the brow bone to tie it together.
Why Liquid Blush Works Best
Liquid Blush is perfect for this face-lifting blush hack because of its lightweight, blendable formula. It melts into your skin, giving you that natural flush without settling into fine lines or feeling heavy. It’s also easier to build, so you control the drama.
Looking for anti-aging makeup tips? Liquid blush adds hydration and dewiness, which is key to keeping mature or dry skin looking fresh—not flat. Powder can dull the skin, while a dewy liquid formula brings the radiance back.
