Words by Maja Schmitt

Aussie dream-pop trio Blusher is making waves with their signature mix of dreamy synths, infectious energy, and lyrics that feel like a heart-to-heart in a club bathroom.

Now, they’re turning up the volume with MECCA MAX, soundtracking the launch of the new Max Vol. Tubing Mascara with their latest track, ‘Racer’ — the anthem for bold, high-impact lashes.

From Studio to Spotlight 

Currently on tour in the US and Canada, the band — Lauren, Jade, and Miranda — came together through a group chat masterminded by Lauren, who simply declared: “Guess what! You’re best friends now.”

Channelling this infectious energy into their songwriting, Lauren says that “we want our songs to feel like you’re in the room with us, like you’re invited to the little party we’re having in the studio”. 

Blusher’s latest single, ‘Racer,’ is all about owning your main-character energy. “We wanted to create a track that convinces us to go to the secret warehouse rave instead of staying in,” says Miranda.

 

Enter: the beauty essentials that perform under bright lights and plenty of sweat! The band swears by the new MECCA MAX Max Vol. Tubing Mascara for its long-lasting, smudge-resistant power. The superstar formula contains film-forming polymers that lengthen, coat and hold the lift, while the dense triangular brush really amps up the volume. Like all MECCA MAX products, it’s Vegan Society-certified and never tested on animals.

When asked what the trio would like to turn the volume up on, Jade picks "the bass!!”, Miranda is all about “saying yes first, figuring it out later” and Lauren chimes in with an old proverb, declaring “Lady Gaga!” 

Beauty is a huge part of Blusher’s creative identity, Jade muses that “makeup feels like magic” and “it’s such an important part of expressing the sound, colour palette and world of Blusher.” It's clear the three have all perfected their signature beauty look. When we asked for the secret to making it stay, they told us setting spray before and after makeup.

To recreate Blusher’s stage-ready makeup, here’s what you need to add to cart: 

 

“My signature look is like all about super sharp winged eyeliner, heaps of mascara and kind of glittery rust / orange tones to bring out my blue eyes. I get a lot of confidence for shows by doing my makeup in a kind of intimidating superhero-type way, it’s how I get into character,” - Lauren

“I’m a classic autumn-coded girly, so my go-to’s are a brown lipliner coupled with the MECCA MAX Lip Lock Balmy Stain for a super warm lip colour, and a brown eyeliner both inside and outside my waterline. I love either brown or purple eyeshadow to compliment the green in my eyes - I’d never tried a blue liner look until this shoot but I will 100% be recreating that for a stage look soon,” - Miranda

“We all love winged eyeliner as a signature Blusher look, but we each have a different style of doing it. I love creating ethereal makeup looks with glitter, gems and light colours. I like to use white eyeliner in my waterline and inner corners to brighten up my eyes.” - Jade

Blusher has given us the much-needed reminder that playing with makeup is fun and we should all dial up our looks.
