Applying Blusher - Tips on How to Apply Blush

Blusher adds color and depth to the skin and can give our cheeks, forehead and nose a healthy, dazzling look. Apply the blusher on the cheekbones and see the colour blends well into the skin. Sacha Cosmetics blush adds warmth and color to the face. The look most women want to achieve is that of a warm, natural glow. Blushers are available in powder, cream or liquid and in a wide variety of tones.

How to Apply Blush

1. Apply foundation (and  if necessary powder ) as normal.  Smile - where your cheek is naturally at its fattest is where blusher needs to go to create a natural look.

2. Apply blusher in a small circle, blending well.  For the best results, try gel blusher.  Powder over the top.

3. It's important to keep your brushes clean, otherwise, they'll gather bacteria and transfer it onto your skin.  This will inevitably cause spots and blackheads. 

4. Use a full round brush for the application of your powder blush, as it will make for a softer and more professional look than the brush that comes with the blush. This should not be the same brush you use to apply your loose powder.

5. Never apply blush below the cheekbones. This tripe of color only creates an illusion that brings the face down and makes you look older.

6. Cream blush is great for mature skin. It blends easily & therefore looks very natural. For gel or cream blush, dab a dot on the apple of the cheek and two smaller dots up the cheekbone. Blend the dots together up to the hairline.

Tips for applying blush:

Tip 1: Its best to apply blush knowing the shape of the face.

• For a long, narrow face: Apply the color lesser than the lower edge of the cheekbone and keep the angle horizontal for such a face to create the width of the face.
• For round, square face: Apply color in the middle of the face. Don't get close on the nose.
• For skin look clearer: Apply blusher to the apple of your cheeks. Blend it back but don't go further than the corner of the eye.

Tip 2: Dusky pink blush warms up any tired looking skin.

Tip 3: Wash brushes regularly with a make up remover or non- soap cleanser
