Heart face shapes

For heart face shapes, you may want to follow the instructions for square face shapes, but bring your blush slightly up towards your cheekbones. Keep this very slight though – the focus should still be on the fleshy part of the apples of your cheeks.


Long Shaped Face

When applying blush to a long shaped face, you want to break up your face a bit, to give off the illusion that it is not that long. Apply blush from the apples of your cheekbones, in an angled vertical line towards your ears. Make sure the blush does not start from below the tip of the nose.

Take a 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!


Tips on applying blush

  • For making your blush last long, remember to apply crème blush while the foundation is damp. Blend both of them together and dust with loose powder.

  • If you want a sexy look, apply shimmery blush at the peak of your cheekbones.

  • To brighten the eyes, you can blush a little over the eyelids.
