This is going to pale the skin. It is going to help cover up the imperfections. It's also in regards to princesses going to get us closer to the regal more almost more Elizabethan look we are going for. This is kind of the late 1500's early 1600's when a lot of the nobility and royalty paled their faces. It was a way to separate themselves. From the, well the rest of the people around. So what you can do is you can apply this over your entire face. There is really a few areas you will not go into with your white baby powder. And then after you get on a basic layer of the white we are going to start applying some blush. We are going to apply some blush with our blush brush.

And then until you start seeing the color appear on the white keep it natural you are going to be focusing on the center of your cheeks for this effect. And you are going to be applying on both sides. "
