Brandy Allen predicts anti-blush makeup trend for fall

Celebrity makeup artist Brandy Allen predicts the emergence of the ‘anti-blush’ trend for the upcoming fall and winter red carpet seasons. This aesthetic moves away from vibrant, bright colors in favor of muted, low-saturation tones.

These dark, brown, or deep berry shades are designed to be versatile, functioning as both a blush and a contour in a single application. Allen suggests this shift provides a more sophisticated and balanced look compared to recent high-saturation trends.

Recommended products to achieve this sculpted look include Rituel de Fille Color Nectar Pigment Balm, REFY Water Blush Liquid Cushion, r.e.m. beauty Hypernova Satin Matte Blush, and Prada Touch Cream-To-Powder Soft Blur Longwear Blush.
