How to Get Higher Cheek Bones

Making your cheekbones look higher can be attained by using specific makeup techniques.

Women are often looking for ways to enhance their beauty. A common trick is to give the illusion of higher cheekbones. Some women naturally have more defined cheekbones, whereas, others can use makeup to get the same effect. High cheekbones give your face a smooth and elegant appearance. Actresses and models are consistently shown with beautiful and smooth cheekbones, and by using these few simples steps, any woman can achieve the same look.

Things You'll Need

• Foundation
• Bronzer
• Blush
• Highlighter
• Large, round makeup brush

Instructions

1. Apply moisturizer to your skin to create a soft, subtle look. Dab on foundation and blend in using your fingers in circular motions all over your face.

2. Suck in your cheeks. Using the large, round makeup brush, lightly brush the highlighter just above the hollows of your cheeks. Smooth out the highlighter by pulling the brush away from your mouth with each stroke.

3. Continue sucking in your cheeks and brush the bronzer along the hollow part of your cheeks using a makeup brush.

4. Highlight the apples of your cheeks with the blush. Put the color on the most pronounced part of your cheekbones with the brush. Blend in circular motions.

5. Blend the colors where they meet with the brush, but don't overblend. You still want to see each separate color.
