Making your own face blusher at home can be a fun and cost-effective way to create a custom shade that’s perfect for your skin tone. Here’s a simple recipe you can try:

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon of arrowroot powder or cornstarch
  • 1-2 teaspoons of natural food coloring (beetroot powder, cocoa powder, or turmeric)
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a small bowl, mix the arrowroot powder or cornstarch with the natural food coloring of your choice until you achieve the desired shade. You can adjust the amount of food coloring to create a lighter or darker shade.
  2. If desired, add a teaspoon of ground cinnamon to give your blusher a warm, rosy glow.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a clean, airtight container or an empty compact for easy application.

To apply, use a brush to lightly dust the blusher onto the apples of your cheeks, blending upwards towards your temples. You can also experiment with different shades and ratios of natural food coloring to create a customized palette that works for your skin tone.
