How To Apply Blush

by Rati on February 6, 2010 · 25 comments

Piya bought Colorbar’s blusher in Trace Gold but she says she does not know how to apply a blusher. I was doing nuffin much today so thought I’d do a quick tutorial on ” How to Apply Blush”. icon smile How To Apply Blush Hope you find it useful. icon smile How To Apply Blush

Note: All images can be enlarged for better view.

Dust some blush on your nose, chin and forehead as well.  This would give a very natural look. If you don’t have a cheek stain, you can also use a powder highlighter such as Trace Gold from Colorbar. I am not carrying it with me these days so used the cheek stain, instead. icon smile How To Apply Blush Use powder highlighter with a blush brush only.

You can increase or decrease the intensity of the blush colour depending on your likability. icon smile How To Apply Blush I applied it quite intensely for the tutorial sake. icon smile How To Apply Blush You can go round and round with blush or just up and down. Just try it out and see what works best for you.

Where to use highlighter?

You can use highter on all the high areas of your face- nose bridge , cupid’s bow, above arches of your eyebrows and top of your cheeks. I don’t use highlighter on my nose bridge becasue I already have a tall nose and highlighting it more makes it look extra tall.  So if you wanto make your nose look taller, you know what to do. icon smile How To Apply Blush

Also, after you have applied lipstick, dab some highlight colour (golden,silvers, coppers etc.)  in the middle of your upper and lower lips with your ring finger . Then apply gloss. This would give a nice shine and great lip wear for your evening parties/ night outs.
