Applying Blush

It is best to apply blush sparingly because the blush warms with the heat of the body to a more intense hue.

* A good blush brush is needed for blush application to create a natural look. I would not recommend using brushes that come in the compact as they are usually too small to create a natural look.

* Knowing where the apple of your cheeks appear gives a beautiful look; simply smile into the mirror to see the apples.

* Dip blush brush into blush powder and tap off the excess applying over the apple of the cheek, if you have  applied to much powder, dab bit of translucent powder to tone it down.

Tips:

Cream blush is great for older skin because it looks natural and blends easily.

A light coat of powder should be applied before and after applying blush to prevent the blush from grabbing unto the oily spots on the skin and also makes the blush go on more smoothly.
