How To Wear The
Coppertone Blush Trend
September 18, 2024 by Lillian Martorella
Beauty is undergoing a massive heat wave this summer. From sunburnt blush to sun-kissed skin, everyone’s craving that outdoorsy bronze makeup look. And there’s just one product you need to hop on the trend: MAC Coppertone Blush 
.
The classic shade, which has been popular since the 90s, is going viral on social media thanks to its unique blend of undertones. “It reads as a sunny, outdoorsy burst of health rather than anything too red, pink, or flat brown,” says Terry Barber, MAC Creative Director of Makeup Artistry. “It could best be described as one of those blush makeup shades that brings your whole face together."
When it comes to creating summer makeup looks, Coppertone really does it all. But if you can’t get your hands on the buzzy shade, there are plenty of blonzer (blush + bronzer) alternatives. “MAC has always explored the idea of tan and bronze-based blush shades,” says Barber. “Shades like MAC Sheertone Blush in Gingerly or Glow Play Blush 
in Ginger Luck add that little extra vibrancy to a bronzed face.” Sweep it from cheeks to temples for a scorching 70s-inspired bronze makeup look — minus the heat.
