How to Make Cream Blush from Eyeshadow

Published in Makeup DIY 2 mins read

You can easily create a custom cream blush from your favorite eyeshadow using just a few simple steps and common beauty products.

Here’s how to transform your powder eyeshadow into a cream blush:

Steps to Make Cream Blush from Eyeshadow:

  1. Prepare Your Supplies: You will need a moisturizer, a clean spatula, your chosen powder eyeshadow, and a blending sponge.
  2. Dispense Moisturizer: Place a small amount of your favorite moisturizer onto the back of your hand using a spatula. This will act as the base for your cream blush.
  3. Collect Eyeshadow Powder: Using a clean, dry spatula, carefully scrape a small amount of your powder eyeshadow into your hand, adding it to the moisturizer. The reference mentions using the shade "Peach For The Stars" as an example, but any color you desire will work.
  4. Mix Thoroughly: Combine the eyeshadow powder and moisturizer using the spatula until you achieve a smooth, consistent, creamy texture. Ensure there are no clumps of powder.
  5. Apply to Cheeks: Take a blending sponge and gently dab the cream blush you just created onto your cheekbones. Blend well for a natural, seamless finish.

Tips for Success:

  • Start Small: Begin with a small amount of eyeshadow powder, and add more as needed to reach the desired color intensity.
  • Moisturizer Choice: Use a moisturizer that is suitable for your skin type and doesn’t contain active ingredients that might react with your eyeshadow.
  • Clean Tools: Ensure your spatula and blending sponge are clean to avoid contamination and achieve the best results.

Why Make Your Own Cream Blush?

  • Custom Colors: Create blush shades that perfectly match your eyeshadow looks or outfits.
  • Travel-Friendly: Easily transform powder makeup into creams, making them ideal for travel.
  • Budget-Friendly: Utilize existing eyeshadows rather than purchasing separate cream blushes.

By following these instructions, you can quickly transform any powder eyeshadow into a custom cream blush.
