1. Shades of Pink DIY Blush
Let’s begin with these absolutely lovely and natural blush shades by mommypotamus for your vanity! Pick from bright magenta-pink, soft light pink, or warm berry red as per your liking.
You’ll need beetroot powder, arrowroot powder or bentonite clay, cacao powder or hibiscus powder, and castor oil, in different proportions to make these shades.
2. Bright Pink Beetroot Blush
Next on the list is this gorgeous pinkish-red shade that goes with all skin tones! Pick a mix of beetroot powder, freeze-dried superfood powders like strawberry, pomegranate, or hibiscus flower, and some pink kaolin clay to make this thing of beauty.
Pro Tip: For a deeper and muted shade, add a tiny pinch of activated charcoal powder or cocoa powder to it.
3. DIY Cream Blush and Lip Tint
If you’re a beginner at makeup, go for creamy formulas as they blend easily and give a natural-looking finish! This lip tint and cream blush uses shea butter as its base, blended with rose mica powder and kaolin clay. How about trying this recipe today?
4. Homemade Cream Blush
Health and lifestyle website Wellness Mama has come up with another DIY blush idea. This one is a combination of shea butter, emulsifying wax, and aloe vera gel.
To get that slight shimmer, add some ground cocoa powder and natural mineral mica powders to it.
5. Natural DIY Powder Blush
To make this one, pick 1 or 2 tablespoons of arrowroot powder or cornstarch as the base. Add 1 or 2 teaspoons of beetroot powder or finely ground hibiscus powder to it. 2 to 3 drops of castor oil or jojoba oil will help the powder adhere to the skin better!
6. Multi-Purpose Cosmetic Sticks
Use the “heat-and-pour” laboratory method to make these sticks at home! Melt shea butter in a double boiler until liquid and whisk in a natural colorant powder like hibiscus or beetroot.
You may add some tea tree oil to the blended mixture and pour it into a container to cool and solidify into a cream blush!
7. Flower Petal Homemade Blush
Grab that mortar and pestle lying in your cupboard and combine soft, flour-like ground florals with some arrowroot powder. Adjust the shade as per your liking and transfer the finished blush into an airtight jar!
Pro Tip: Run the finely ground petals through a fine-mesh, a sieve or piece of cheesecloth to remove any scratchy flecks!
8. Two-Ingredient Loose Powder Blush
Here’s another pretty pink blush for you! You can find the detailed list and instructions on the blog Happy Mothering, and try this awesome recipe.
