How to Use Bronzer & Blush Together

Adding in a pop of pink or coral blush on your cheeks and a light, shimmering highlight color will give you a perfect summer glow. Does this Spark an idea?

Sweep a large blush brush into your bronzer and tap it on the compact to remove any excess powder. Starting in the center of your cheek, brush the bronzer up toward the temples in a diagonal line, just below the cheekbones. Apply the bronzer on your face after foundation and concealer for more even coverage.

Clean off your brush and dip it in the blush. Tap off any excess and use small, outward circular motions to apply to the apples of your cheeks. Blend it in with the brush so it does not look too bright or cakey. Use lighter blush colors in peach and pink to complement bronzed skin.
