Should the color of the blush match the color of your lips? Help with my blush tone. Photo included.
I’m wearing blush again because we don’t need masks and the blush I’ve been wearing for years suddenly looks too peachy for my skin tone. Like it looks good if you don’t look at my natural lip color. But my natural lip color is a very neutral / cool pink. Should I try neutral / cool pink blushes? I also have a hard time blending it so I think the blush is just too old. I usually wear glasses but took them off for the photo. I don’t wear foundation just concealer around my eyes and on my nose as it’s usually red, eyebrows, mascara, and blush. Photo taken in front of a window. I feel like Imgur is toning down the pigments because the photo looks a lot more vibrant on my phone than it is on Imgur so I hope you can still tell. (Edit: Link removed) Any advice or advice is appreciated 🙂
i personally always try to match my blush and lip color, sometimes i use a tinted balm on my lips and add a little to my cheeks. i would use a cooler color of pink !!

No, they just have to look decent on your skin
i honestly love neutral almost bronzey blushes anymore… for reference my current go to is colourpop crossroads. i just find that it matches any look and helps my pale skin look a bit tanner. i wear this with any lipstick because it is so neutral.
I think you can match it to your lip color and it looks great, or you can use a shade that compliments your skin tone. I am neutral toned myself, and similar to yours. I use neutral blushes, with some slightly warm rose or peach colors here and there.
I posted about my recent obsession with Milani’s Rose D’oro, which is glowy but not glittery, and can be applied lightly but is buildable.
Full disclosure, I have been very into the heavier, brighter blush moment lately- for the first time in my life. I have historically been pretty conservative on blush.
