The most flattering of the colour cosmetics – that not only accentuates the cheek bones but gives the impression of a soft healthy glow, is the blusher.

Selective and clever usage omits the needs for shaders – especially during day time. Use two shades of the same colour-a light and a dark to shape the face.

• Blusher strengthens and livens the face
• Deep shades are more suitable for evenings
• Rose-pin and coral colours are fresh looking and give flow for natural day-time look.
• Soft coral and warm rose tints suit pale skin
• Warm pinks suit olive skin
• Powder the blusher with a blusher brush to give you more control.

Procedure : Start from the bulbous piece at the entrance of the ear down to the corner of your mouth by placing a thin handled brush across the cheek. This helps define the angle.

• Use a light shade of blusher 2″ up from the line and then use a dark shade 1″ up from this line.
• Do not apply the blusher any lower down the cheek bone than the end of your nose.
• Do not apply the blusher closer to the center of your face than the outer corner of your eye.
• Do not apply the blusher any higher than the temples.
