The ultra-dewy blush look has been all over our Instagram feed and TikTok's FYP for a while now. In fact, even Gen Z celebrities like Alexa Ilacad have been jumping on the bandwagon lately!
A big fan of the natural makeup look, Alexa has been sporting glowy cheeks long before it became a popular trend among her fellow beauty lovers. Luckily for all of us, the actress actually revealed the exact cheek products she swears by to achieve her signature look. Here’s how you can recreate it yourself!
The Exact Products in Alexa Ilacad’s Cheek Routine
Alexa likes to keep her makeup routine simple, so it only takes her three steps and products to achieve her radiant blush look.
1. After prepping her skin with a hydrating primer, Alexa contours her forehead, cheekbones, and jaw to add definition to her face. Instead of using a contour powder, she actually uses an illuminating tint in a cool-toned hue for that extra glow! Although she opts for the Cashmere shade, the GRWM Cosmetics product she uses offers a wide range of 25 shades to suit all Filipino skin tones.

2. Alexa then goes in with a peachy pink powder blush, strategically applying the product just above the hollows of her cheeks to accentuate her face shape. Her go-to is another product from GRWM Cosmetics that costs less than P500!

3. Lastly, Alexa tops off the blush with a shimmery pressed highlighter that has rose gold flecks. As she demonstrates, going for this kind of hue mimics that lit-from-within glow so well because its pinkish undertone blends seamlessly with blush. To amp up the radiance, she also applies the highlighter to her brow bone and inner corners.
