Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Cream blush
• Fluffy blush brush
• Powder blush
• Loose Mineral Powder

1. 
    
   Max Factor cream blush

   Take your cream blush and apply it thoroughly to the apples of your cheeks with your fingers, blend the cream blush up towards your temples. It is important that the cream blush be a color that is similar to your skin tone because the cream blush isn’t being used as an actual shade of blush, it’s being used as a primer for your blush.

2. 
    
   Blush brush

   Smile and apply your desired shade of powder based blush with a fluffy blush brush. Start applying at the apples of your cheeks (while smiling) and sweep up towards your temples lightly. Be sure to apply your powder blush directly on top of the neutral cream blush base.

3. 
    
   Mineral powder

   Sweep a coat of loose mineral powder over the area where you have applied your blush. This will seal your blush between the two layers and make it last throughout the day and into the night.

Tips & Warnings

• Do not apply blush too close to your nose or mouth, if you do it will make you look tired and puffy.
