Blush can act as a contour or highlight or both, depending upon how it's applied.
Use both shades of blush to widen face.
Suck in cheeks, feel along cheekbones tracing downward until you feel natural hollow beneath. This is where darkest color blush will be applied.
1.
Use blush brush, apply darkest color in hollow, making a "C" shape, blending up to temples on side of face.
Do not extend blush higher than eyebrows.
2.
Use lighter shade blush on top of cheekbones, making sure not to work too high as to interfere with under eye plane. This can make the eye look puffy.
3.
Smile, blend lighter color on apple of cheeks.
4.
Try a little touch of blush on tip of nose for a sun-glow effect.
5.
A light blushing of color on forehead and/or chin can help de-emphasize the length of face.
Make sure blush is not too heavy. If too strong, blend down with your foundation sponge. You can also blend blush down with applying our Toning Mist, spray on sponge then soften blush on cheeks.
