Blush

Blush has always been popular among women. They rejuvenate and revitalize the face, balance makeup and are ideal for facial modeling.

It is better to use dry blush for evening makeup. Fat blush is more suitable for daytime makeup. Apply them before applying powder.

Apply blush to your face using a large soft brush:

1. Start applying a little further than a straight line, which, if continued, will reach the middle of the eye.

2. Rub the blush very carefully, moving towards the edge of the cheek. Make sure there are no sharp transitions.

3. If necessary, rub the blush on your cheeks using a clean, dry brush, and a little of the blush should get onto your temples, but under no circumstances onto your hairline.

4. Carefully select the color of the blush - it should be in harmony with the color of the entire makeup and not stand out from the overall tone.

If the shape of the face were flawless, and the skin of the face was covered with a gentle tan and a fresh blush all year round, then there would be no need for blush. However, in reality, every second woman considers her face to be too narrow or wide, and every third woman is not satisfied with the pale complexion of her face. In the old days, round red spots were painted on the cheeks to look fresh and young. Now women apply blush to their faces in a more targeted manner: they not only refresh their skin color, but also favorably model their face shape.

Here are 23 important recommendations for the correct application of blush and modeling your face shape with it:

1. The very first thing you need to do is choose a blush of the consistency that suits you:

   1. If you use dry powder, then the blush should be dry.

   2. If you only use cream or foundation, then buy cream blush (or foam blush) for your cheeks. The cream and foam - along with coloring pigments - contain fat and moisture (hyaluronic acid and glycerin), so the cream and foam combine well with the creamy base. Dry blush is applied to a non-greasy surface (heavily powdered skin), otherwise the face becomes spotty.

2. If you are using dry blush, first cover your face with regular powder. Then apply blush with a thick round brush. The brushes that come out of the package are usually too small and flat.

3. Apply dry blush in short strokes:

   1. Separate a little blush from the block and shake the remaining residue into the palm of your hand.

   2. Start with minimal paint and apply in clear layers. This way the blush looks natural, without having to erase off excess and adjust the contours.

   3. To highlight areas, press the brush harder.

4. Apply cream blush in mini specks and rub with your fingers - the paint will be distributed evenly. Rub the foam quickly, it is absorbed instantly.

5. When choosing a shade, pay attention to the color of your skin and hair. Beige and pink tones refresh the face.

   1. Cool shades (purple pink, pink) suit fair skin.

   2. For tanned skin - darker tones (copper, coral).

   3. For blondes and brunettes - apricot, coral.

   4. Dark-haired - shades of rust, brown.

   5. Red - with a yellow or orange tint.

6. If you don't know where to apply blush, look at your face without makeup in daylight. Pay attention to the pinkish areas and highlight them with blush - this will make your makeup look natural.

7. Experiment with blush: from the middle of the cheek under the eye, draw a line to the cheekbones, shade the color on the temples and chin - your face will look fresher.

8. If your face is darker than your neck due to foundation, apply blush to the middle of your neck.

9. A wide, flat face can be given relief by applying blush along the hairline, on the temples and outer areas of the cheeks.

10. A round face will be visually lengthened if you apply blush in a triangle from the temples to the corners of the lips.

11. With a heart-shaped face
