Powder Blush | Silky-Soft Pigment + Lasting All-Day Color

Where do I apply blush for my face shape?

For a natural flush, smile and apply blush to the apples of your cheeks, blending up and out toward your temples. For a sculpted, lifted look, apply along your cheekbones and blend upward. Round faces benefit from angled placement to add dimension, and long faces look best with blush kept closer to the center of the cheek.

How do I pick the right blush shade for my skin tone?

A good rule: pick the color your cheeks turn after a workout or a laugh. Cool undertones tend to look best in pinks and berries, warm undertones in peaches and corals, and neutral undertones can wear both. Our Powder and Liquid Blush comes in a range built to flatter across skin tones.

Is Bodyography blush buildable and blendable over foundation?

Yes, all three of our blush formats — Cream Blush, Powder Blush, and Color Cassette Liquid Blush Lip — are buildable and blend seamlessly over foundation. Start with a small amount, tap the color onto your cheeks, and blend outward. Layer additional product only where you want more intensity.

Will this blush last through the day?

Color Cassette Liquid Blush & Lip is our longest-wearing formula and lasts all day when applied over foundation as it is a watercolor stain. Cream Blush and Powder Blush wear beautifully but may need a light touch-up mid-day depending on skin type. Layering Cream Blush under Powder Blush is a pro trick for maximum staying power.

Can I use it on lips or as an eyeshadow?

Color Cassette Liquid Blush & Lip is specifically designed to be used on both cheeks and lips for a monochromatic, no-fuss look. Cream Blush can also double as an eyeshadow or lip tint for a coordinated flush. Powder Blush works beautifully as a subtle eyeshadow, especially in the crease for warm, wearable dimension.

Is Bodyography cruelty-free and vegan?

Yes — Bodyography is 100% cruelty-free and has been for over 27 years. The majority of our products are also vegan; a few contain beeswax or other animal-derived ingredients (all cruelty-free). Check individual product pages for confirmed vegan status. Cruelty-free is a non-negotiable across the brand. Certified by PETA and LEAPING BUNNY.

Where is Bodyography made, and are ingredients ethically sourced?

Bodyography is a family-owned professional cosmetics brand, headquartered in California and manufactured primarily in the United States, along with partners in S. Korea, France, Spain, Taiwan, China and Italy. We source ingredients responsibly and formulate to our own clean-beauty standards rather than to a universal checklist. What we include is just as intentional as what we leave out.

What's Bodyography's return policy on opened makeup?

We offer returns on unused products within 30 days of purchase. Because of hygiene standards, we generally cannot accept returns on opened cosmetics unless the product is defective. If your product arrived damaged or you have a formulation concern, please reach out to our customer service team — we take every message seriously and want to make it right.

How can I get a free professional shade match?

We offer free shade matching for foundation, concealer, tinted moisturizer, and more. Email us with a clear, natural-light photo of your face and neck (no makeup, no filter), and one of our team members — many of whom are working makeup artists — will match you personally. It's one of the most-used services we offer.
