Five Advices on Applying Blush - Make Up

My friend Margy, who is a professional make up artist, has offered herself to write five advices on how to apply blush and share them with you. Here they are!

• · Accentuate the cheekbones by using a slightly darker shade there while blending it down the cheek for a more natural look.

• · Add a touch of the blusher on your chin and forehead to give yourself the naturally glowing look with your entire face done up beautifully.

• · Use angled blusher brushes to get into the socket line and for applying highlighter to the tops of the cheeks.

• · Women of blond and ginger hair should use blush of orange tones. Dark and auburn haired women will look perfect in pastel blush, called powdered.

• · The intensity of the blusher will make or break your look. Having a blusher that is too weak for your skin will not even be seen.

Thank you, Margy!
