How To Apply Liquid Blush Tips

LUST FOR LIQUID BLUSH

LUST FOR
LIQUID BLUSH

SWIPE. BLEND. BLUSH.

Color rush. Can’t get enough. Insatiable Liquid Blush delivers a weightless surge of saturated color in 16 audacious shades. As François Nars, Founder & Creative Director, says: “I’ve always been obsessed with blush. This new liquid formula is packed with pigment and blends so easily with fingertips for a rush of color.”

Available in 13 satin and 3 shimmer finishes, this pigment-packed formula offers a second-skin finish and 16-hour* fade-proof wear. Artistry meets efficacy in a Supercharged Color Complex—a dynamic blend of avocado-treated pigments—that delivers vibrant payoff and smooth color consistency. This lightweight liquid is also infused with luxurious ingredients, including ceramides known to strengthen the skin barrier and peptides that help give skin a supple and fuller-looking appearance.

Whether you crave the soft peach of Sex Appeal, the rich mahogany of Brash, or the shimmering peachy pink of iconic Orgasm, your cheek color options are endless. Discover three ways to wear Insatiable Liquid Blush—from a natural gradient of radiance to a lit-from-within effect.

LOOK ONE: NATURAL RADIANCE

A classic, subtle wash of color using a single shade to enhance skin’s inherent warmth.

  • Technique: For those who want to even skin tone while letting your natural skin shine through.
  • Effect: This method utilizes the warmth of your skin to melt the pigment for a seamless, second-skin glow that layers over makeup without looking patchy or streaky.

LOOK TWO: SCULPTED DEFINITION

A soft, defined effect that sits between blush and soft contour. This technique adds depth and sophistication without a bright pop of color.

  • Technique: First, apply Double Dare (a hybrid between blush and soft contour) along the cheekbone with fingers or the #15 Precision Powder Brush, blending downward. Then, brush Sex Appeal along the top of the cheekbone blending down, focusing on the area between the corners of the mouth and the jawline.
  • Effect: Achieve a gentle contrast that shapes the cheeks without harsh contouring. The result is a youthful, natural finish with vibrant, high-impact color that stays fresh for 16 hours*.

LOOK THREE: DIMENSIONAL GLOW

An artistry double-take. Layer an unexpected pairing of liquid and cream textures for a multidimensional glow that pops.

  • Technique: Apply a thin, sheer layer of Girl Happy high up on the cheeks, blending up under the eyes and around temples using fingers or the Yachiyo Brush. Finish by gently patting The Multiple in Hot Take directly on top and softly blending with your fingers. Avoid rubbing too hard as this can disturb the liquid layer underneath.
  • Effect: By layering two different blush textures, you can create a customized cheek look. The base layer of liquid blush creates a lit-from-within effect, then the second layer of matte cream texture adds a soft-focus finish.

Whether you’re seeking a sheer wash of color or a high-saturation sculpt, these artistry techniques are only the beginning of what you can create. Insatiable Liquid Blush offers endless combinations of cheek color with 13 satin and 3 shimmer finishes designed to be customized, layered, and built to your desired intensity. Satisfy your lust for color with a pigment-packed, second-skin finish that keeps you blushing for 16 hours*
