With round faces, you want to try
and elongate your face, so basically you are sucking in your cheeks. To do
that, apply blush under your cheekbones, in an up and down motion towards your
temple. Do not apply blush to the apples of your cheeks, as that will make your
face appear more round.

below the tip of the nose.

fluffy brush and add some color on the apple of your cheeks, now slowly sweep
it up towards the temple. Blend the blush to you are sorted!
