5 Berry Blushes To Get For Margot Robbie’s “Sad-Girl Pretty” Look From Wuthering Heights

It has been a hot minute since the controversial Wuthering Heights film starring the onscreen power couple we never knew we needed—Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordie—came bowling onto big screens. And whether you love it or hate it (or can't be bothered to sit through 2+ hours of angst), chances are you've seen the viral makeup looks worn by Margot Robbie all over social media.

Now here are the facts: that wind-bitten, just-cried-on-the-moors flush, worn by Cathy (played by Margot Robbie) in a perfectly “sad-girl pretty” way, is basically impossible to achieve in humid Singapore weather without a really good berry blush doing the heavy lifting.

A quick Google search will find you a whole pile of online guides, but they’ll point you towards products that are either hard to find locally or way too pricey to justify for everyday wear.

So, as a devotee of Emily Brontë's novel (and someone who takes her blush game very seriously), I made it my personal business to round up 5 berry blushes from just $10 that fit the bill. Plus, you can easily find all of these in Singapore. You're welcome!

1. House of HUR Moist Ampoule Blusher in Berry Purple

Just because you're going for that wind-bitten look doesn't mean your skin has to actually suffer for it! If you haven't heard of House of HUR, it's a Korean beauty brand co-created by influencer Sunny Dahye. The label is big on producing skincare-infused makeup that highlights natural beauty, so their berry blush comes with a side of moisturising ampoule.

2. WAKEMAKE Over Blurring Pot Lips & Cheeks in Berry Plum

Can't handle wearing overly cool tones? Go for WAKEMAKE's Berry Plum blurring pot blush. It has just the right amount of warm red to look at home on sun-kissed skin or those with olive undertones, all while still delivering that high-emotion berry flush.

3. Jung Saemmool Artist Cushion Blush in Plop Berry

We get it, it can be intimidating to slap a heavily pigmented berry blush on your cheeks out of the blue—especially for those with fairer skin tones. This Jung Saemmool cushion blush offers a lighter, pink-leaning variation of the berry blush trend that will help you avoid looking like a blackberry exploded over your face.

4. Fwee Lip & Cheek Blurry Pudding Pot in Boss

These days, it seems like there's a Fwee pudding pot shade for every look. While both the Baddie and Boss shades look pretty close to the berry colour we're going for, Boss seems to be a better bet to get that deep, mysterious flush. Bonus: these work as both lip and cheek colour, so you'll get double the use out of them.

Get the shade Boss on Sephora for $26.

5. Benefit Cosmetics Juice Stick Dewy Gel Blush In Figgie

While this one is the priciest option on this list, don't pass up on Benefit Cosmetics' brand-new blush stick just yet. This multipurpose gel blush has a lovely sheer finish, allowing for easy layering without looking heavy or cakey. Plus, the twist design means you won't have to get your hands all over the product during application!
