Tips On How To Apply Blusher:
- Powder blusher is a quick and easy option.
- To apply powder blusher, use a large soft brush, start the colour on the cheeks, or the fullest part of your cheeks, directly below the centre of your eyes.
- The best way to work out where to put blusher is to go for a walk on a cold day. It is best to apply blusher on that part of your face where you blush the most and you can accentuate that further with the correct application of blusher.
- Use the blusher correctly, if you are applying then use it in one direction, do not go round and round as it will create streaks and look artificial. Smile and dust the blusher over your cheek-bones, upwards and outwards.
- If you are using gel or tint to contour the face, don’t apply a blob and try to blend it. This makes it hard to give it a balanced look. Apply dots of it in an upward direction graduating up the cheekbone, then blend towards the cheekbones.
- If you find you have put too much blusher, apply a light film of foundation. This will tone it down.
- Using gel or tint blushes are best on bare skin, if applied on foundation they tend to stick and can be hard to blend.
- Choosing the shade of blush according to your skin tone is generally done, but do bear in mind that dusky pink blush can warm up any tired-looking skin.
