Are you blushing?

Grab some tissues, seat yourself in front of the mirror and get ready for some tried and true application tips. 

Smile or suck in your cheeks to locate the apples of your cheeks. Begin at the centre of the apple and apply blush up to the corner of the eye and the temple. Blush should never go below the bottom of your nose, or any closer in than the iris of your eye. Applying blush high on the face makes your eyes sparkle. 

After applying blush, blend with a dry makeup sponge. Use the edge of the sponge like an eraser on the outer edges of the applied blush to buff away any lines of demarcation. 

Never apply blush below the cheekbones. This pulls your face down and makes you look older. 
Note for oily skin: Excess oil causes the skin to grab colour, which makes your blush darken as the day goes on. You can avoid this first by purifying your skin with our ‘Daily Cleansers Deep Pore Cream Cleanser’ that gently exfoliates to remove make-up and excess oil. Secondly, apply translucent powder often, pressing it onto your face without rubbing it in. 

And remember to change your blush, when the seasons change! Deep, rich colours for fall and winter and paler tones for spring and summer.
