Who knew it was this easy to make homemade makeup? With only 3 ingredients you can make a diy cream blush that will give you the perfect glow-y blushed cheeks to finish off any natural makeup look.
I love this blush because it has a bit of shimmer to it based on the mica powder used, and you don’t have any extra unwanted chemicals mixed in.
If you are a natural makeup girl who wants to create a quick diy cream blush, creating whatever color you would like to match your skin, then this is the recipe for you. Let’s get right into it!
Equipment & Ingredients
To make this diy cream blush you will need these ingredients:
- Beeswax Pellets
- Mica Powder
- Shea Butter
As for the equipment, this is all you will need:
- Small Mixing Bowls
- 2 ounce tins
Once the blush is cooled in the tin you transfer it into, be sure to let it cool for at least a day. This way the blush has time to fully set and when using a brush to apply, it came off much more evenly on my face, than when used only a few hours after cooling.
From making an orange, to light pink or dark red blush, create whatever DIY cream blush you desire with this simple recipe. let me know how it came out for you in the comments and be sure to share this recipe with your family and friends! 🙂
