If you're a fair-skinned beauty, bring out your inner glow with the right shade of blush. A soft pink blush color will accent your delicate skin and bring your skin to life. Blush will do wonders for your fair complexion on days when you are feeling under the weather or tired.

1.

Figure out your natural blush shade before choosing the right blush color. Pinch the apples of your cheeks gently -- the pinkish hue that appears is your natural blush. You can also determine your natural blush color by looking in the mirror when your flushed, such as after a jog or workout.

2.

Determine your skin tone to find a blush color that blends seamlessly into your complexion. If you look best in silver jewelry and berry-toned clothing, you most likely have a cool skin tone. If gold jewelry and orange and red clothing complement your complexion, you probably have a warm skin tone.

3.

Choose a soft, rose-colored blush if your skin has cool tones. Pick a light peach-hued blush if you have a warm-toned complexion. Go for subtle blush color that gives your skin a fresh, dewy look. Avoid too-dark blushes, which can make your complexion look garish.

4.

Apply the blush to your cheeks with a soft, clean brush in natural light, if possible. Don't over-do it!
