How to Apply Blush
How to Apply Blush
We all would love to have rosy red or pink shell colored cheeks, but only a few of us are gifted with these in real life. For the rest of us, we can only find solace in makeup such as blush to give us that perfect look. Blush is usually applied after you have applied concealer, foundation, powder, eye shadow and eyeliner. However, many women who don’t like to go in for full face makeup prefer to use blush after a tinted moisturizer or foundation.
Once you know your complimentary color of blush, you can then go about looking for a texture that suits you best. Since there are numerous blush cosmetics available in the market, it is best to take your time and find one that suits your skin type well. Generally, powder blushes work very well on oily skin, as the powder absorbs the extra oil. However, if you have dry skin then a cream based blush is a good idea. For combination skin, a gel based preparation works well.
While some blushes come with their own brush, you should invest in a quality blush brush with natural hair. This brush covers the maximum area and also ensures that it is evenly distributed on your cheeks giving it the natural glowing look.
Applying blush
While there is no hard and fast rule as to how to apply blush, you should never apply too much of it. Rather start with a small amount and add more if needed. For this, begin by completing all your other makeup (concealer, foundation, powder and eye makeup) and allow it to set. Next, run your blush brush in your chosen shade and dab it slightly on the rim of the container, to dust off extra or excess blush. You may also rub the brush over your hand to remove the excess.Once your brush has the correct amount of blush on it, look in a well-lit mirror and smile pulling your lips apart. This process helps you locate your cheekbones or the ‘apple’ of your cheeks. However, some experts say that making a fish face works even better as it exposes the round rises or mounts of your cheeks that naturally tend to flush.
Once located, you need to target this particular area and glide your blush brush across this zone in broad, outward strokes. Another way of applying it is to locate the apple of your cheeks and place your brush right in its center and from there start brushing outwards and in circular movements, as this gives a more natural looking coverage. Similarly, if you are using a liquid, gel or cream based blush then start by dotting the core of your cheek mounts and lightly blend the blush outwards with your middle or index finger. Use another clean finger or sponge to remove any excess blush that could not get blended.
If you have facial hair, then using downward brush strokes is a good idea as it would ensure these small hair stay down, rather than be combed in the opposite direction which would make them stand up, resulting in uneven application.
Tips for amateurs
While applying blush, should you suddenly realize it is too much or not well applied then keep a box of translucent powder handy to apply on the area. This ensures two things. Firstly, it would help tone down whichever shade of blush you have generously applied, and secondly it would also help settle and set your overall makeup. Since this setting powder is translucent, it would not interfere with the overall color of your makeup. Another great tip that I normally use is to take your foundation sponge and lightly swipe it over your applied blush color. If too much pink or red blush has been accidentally brushed on, then you could always use some sober natural looking tinted powder as well, to bring your cheeks closer to their natural color.How to Apply Blush Practical
The following items from our Makeup Kit will be used:
127 Blush Brush
10 Color Blush Palette- either Bright or Neutral
Now let’s start with the practical…
If your client has no visible cheekbones, then the following method must be used.
Step 1: Take your index finger and determine where your client’s cheekbones are.To find this spot, simply place the tip of your index finger on the tragus part of your ear. If you don’t know what part that is, then you can do two things. First, you can try making a fish face and suck your cheeks in, or second you can make a 45° angle between your lips and your ear. When you keep your finger inclined at such an angle you can feel your cheek bones above your fingers. This then is the area that needs to be contoured or shaded.
Step 2: Take your 127 Blush Brush and apply a dark shade of powder/bronzer/blush just underneath her natural cheekbones.
Step 3: Wipe your brush with a clean tissue
Step 4: Finally, take the same brush and dip it into a light cream, beige or white eye shadow color. Apply this color just above her natural cheekbones.
By doing this, you will create the illusion that she has nice accentuated cheekbones.
Now I will demonstrate how to apply blush for normal everyday makeup.
Step 1: Take your blush brush and dip it either into the bright or neutral color blush palette. Shake off any excess blush onto your hand or dab it slightly on the rim of the blush box.
Step 2: Ask your model or client to smile and apply the blush upwards in a straight line, beginning opposite to her nose and taking it upwards till the outside corner of her eyes.
Step 3: Take the same brush and make circular movements over that line that you have drawn. This will ensure that there are no visible streaks on your cheeks.
Step 4: Finally, if too much blush color has been used, then you can take your foundation sponge and lightly swipe it over the applied blush color. If the previous method is not for you, then you could dab your powder brush into translucent powder and lightly go over that area.
Please Note That:
If your client has no visible cheekbones, then it is best the feel where her cheekbones are and apply the blush color just underneath that. Take a highlighting color and apply it on top of her cheekbones. The darker shade of blush will in fact make the area appear as if it’s “pushed-in”, creating a prominent cheekbone. The highlighting color will bring an area forward
If your client has very high and prominent cheekbones, then the darker shade of blush should be applied on top of the prominent cheekbone, creating a softer appearance. The highlighting color should be applied just underneath the cheekbone
If you have facial hair, then using downward brush strokes is a good idea as it would ensure these small hairs stay down and are covered
Blush is a wonderful makeup accessory that accentuates your natural cheekbones, but it’s important to never overdo it.
