It is the latest beauty trend that promises a warm and bright glow. Sunset blush mimics the gradient colors you see when the sets which means this blush trend involves a blend of pink, orange, and gold tones. To create the sunset blush effect, a hot pink blush is used alongside a coral/orange blush and a golden highlighter.
This trend kicked off after beauty creator Alissa Holmes (@alissajanay1) first posted a video of her mixing two liquid blushes in shades of pink and orange and a yellow gold toned liquid highlighter on her cheeks. The results were so breathtaking that whoever saw Alissa’s video just had to recreate that magic.

Anyone can try it if they want a bold blush look. It is important to note that sunset blush isn’t very subtle, but if you do want it to look more natural, you can just opt for more neutral hues of blush and highlighter. Sunset blush looks amazing on medium to deep skin tones. Fair skin tones can also go all in with it or pick lighter shades from the pink and orange color family for blush and a more muted gold toned highlighter.

Now that you are all excited to give it a go, here’s exactly how you can recreate the sunset blush trend and slay your makeup game this season.
Step 1: Pick Your Products
This blush hack is best created with liquid cheek products. You can substitute them with cream or powder products, but you will then have to improvise. To do it the exact way that everyone is attempting on social media, opt for a hot pink liquid blush, a bright orangey liquid blush, and a gold toned liquid highlighter.
Step 2: Place Them On Your Cheeks
Apply two dots of the pink blush on your cheekbones or the outer half of your cheeks. Place two dots of the orange blush on the apples of your cheeks. And finally, apply a dot of highlighter right beneath the outer half of your eyes and above the area where the two blushes meet.
Step 3: Blend & Glow
Take a medium sized makeup brush and blend everything together. Make sure to use stamping motions first, starting at the apples of your cheeks, then moving up to your cheekbones, and then finally blending the highlighter across your entire cheekbones.
