So This Is How You're Supposed to Apply Blush

I had always applied blush
starting from the apples of my cheeks and sweeping outwards along the
length of the cheekbone. However, for someone redness prone like me,
this was actually a mistake.
"Where
ever the brush hits first, is usually where you get the most payoff
because that's where the most product is deposited," explains Soliz.
And, if you're naturally flushed like me, this puts extra "warmth" where
you might already have it.
Not to mention, tapering
the blush at apples of the cheeks changes the angles of the face and
contributes to a more feline, Bella-Hadid-like sculpt.
"Starting
further back at the temples and working inward allows you to create a
slimmer more lifted and defined effect." In other words, it's an
on-the-spot face lift.
This isn't to say that you have
to go against the grain and stop showing the apples of cheeks as much
love (it adds volume to your face, after all), but it's definitely been a
game changer for me. The highs of the cheekbone are not to be
underestimated!
