The goal of ethereal makeup is to make you look otherworldly and angelic, as if you arrived through a portal from a fantasy world with magical elves and hobbits with evil rings. That means you need to tap into the product guaranteed to give you a cherubic glow: blush.
Blush not only accentuates the cheekbones, it also gives your face a healthy dose of color, as if you were a wee lad or lass. In a lot of fantasy and romantic stories, the characters live in lands where age and time run much slower so having a soft, youthful flush is important.
First of all, you need to establish what type of blush can create the look you’re going for. Celebrity makeup artist and founder of KIMIKO, Dani Kimiko Vincent told PureWow that cream blush is the best way to go when creating an ethereal look because of its ease of use. A great cream blush to use for your look is the Ilia Multi-stick cream blush which is available in 12 shades to match most skin tones. This award-winning blush also comes in a stick form for easy application. Getting the right type of blush is only the first step. You also need to know how to wear it to achieve the ethereal flair.
