Thank you, Mary, for allowing me to hold out a invitee on your blog! My chore is all almost consulting women on how to convey out their natural God-given beauty through the avenues of peel tending together with cosmetics. So today, I desire to laissez passer you lot some tips on blush - everything from choosing the correct color for your peel note to brush technique together with application.

The outset tool you lot quest is a good, natural bristle brush that has a slight angle to the tip. You desire this angle because it provides a natural contour that matches amongst the sort along your cheekbones.

The side past times side pace is looking at your cheek construction together with determining whether your cheeks are to a greater extent than prominent or if your confront sort is quite slender.

Here is my rule: if you lot accept a rounder/ cheekier face, you lot most probable produce non desire to seat blush correct on the apples of your cheeks because it volition accentuate that roundness. If your confront is rattling narrow together with your cheeks are non prominent, thus the apples are a smashing house for blush!

Here is a visual for you:

So to apply your blush you lot desire to start towards your temples amongst the tip business office of your brush pointing to your hairline together with start blending downwards inwards the crescent sort towards your cheeks. Avoid getting to a greater extent than or less your nose!
