How to apply liquid blush makeup?
Blush is a cosmetic used to add rosiness to the face and brighten the complexion. Based on different shapes and textures, blushes can be divided into the following categories:
Powder Blush: Powder blush is the most common form of blush and usually comes in powder form. It can come in a single color or in a multi-color combination and can be dabbed onto the cheeks using a blush brush or powder puff to create a natural rosy effect.
Cream Blush: Cream blush has a soft texture and usually comes in the form of a paste or cream. It can be gently applied on the cheeks using fingers or a makeup sponge. It has a moist texture that is easy to spread and blend in, creating a natural glow.
Liquid Blush: Liquid blush is a blush product with a liquid texture. It usually comes in a liquid or lotion form and can be dabbed onto the cheeks using a brush or fingertips. Liquid blush has good spreadability and can create a clear and natural makeup effect.
How to apply blush powder?
When applying blush powder, you can follow these steps:
Prep your face: Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply foundation, concealer, and powder before applying blush.
Choose the right brush: Choose a fluffy and soft blush brush. The brush should be slightly angled or domed for easier application.
Choose the right shade: Choose a blush shade that complements your skin tone and desired look. Pink, peach and coral are popular choices, but you can also try other colors depending on your preference.
Apply to apples of skin: Gently twist the brush into the blush powder and tap off excess blush powder. Smile to find the apples of your face, the rounded area that appears when you smile. Starting at the apples, sweep up toward the temples in diagonal or circular motions. Blend the color well for a natural look.
Adjust intensity: If you feel your blush is too strong, use a clean brush or makeup sponge to blend and soften the color. You can also lighten the color of your blush by lightly dusting it with translucent powder using a clean powder brush.
Check in natural light: Take a step back and check the application of your blush in natural light to make sure it looks even and blended well. If necessary, make necessary adjustments.
Remember, it's easier to add more blush than to remove excess. Start with a light color and gradually deepen the color until you achieve the look you want.
How to apply cream blush?
To apply cream blush, you can follow these steps:
Prep your face: Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply foundation, concealer, and powder before applying cream blush.
Choose the right shade: Choose a cream blush shade that complements your skin tone and desired look. Cream blush usually gives a natural, dewy look.
Choose the right tools: Unlike powder blush, cream blush cannot be applied with a regular blush brush. Instead, you can use your fingers, a makeup sponge, or a stipple brush to apply cream blush. Fingers provide the most control and warmth for blending, while a sponge or brush allows for a more dispersed application.
For the Apples of Skin: Smile to find the apples of your skin, the round areas that pop up when you smile. Apply a small amount of cream blush to the apples of your skin using the tool of your choice.
Blend Blush: Gently blend the cream blush into skin with a gentle patting or patting motion. If using your fingers, you can use a tapping motion to blend the edges and create a seamless finish. If using a sponge or brush, dab or buff product into skin.
Set as desired: If you want your cream blush to last longer or prefer a matte finish, use a powder brush to lightly dust your cream blush with translucent powder. This step is optional and depends on your personal preference.
