It’s all in the name: Blush stacking involves, well, stacking your blush products on top of one another for a high-impact look that reads naturally flushed. Specifically, “I love using cream blushes on the cheeks first, setting it with a light powder, and then adding a powder blush on top,” says Quynh.
With a jam-packed celebrity roster (Ali Wong, Simona Tabasco, and Riley Keough, to name a few), Quynh swears by this trick to make the skin stand out, even amid a swarm of flash photography. “The cream blush shines through in photos, while the powder blush adds more color to the cheeks,” she notes. “It adds that pop of color, so you don’t have to worry about it fading throughout the day.” Her clients, after all, are certainly booked and busy—so a blush with some staying power is key.
