Applying Blush for High Fashion Makeup

Video Transcript

"Now we're moving on to the blush. With this particular look, it's not really that sun kissed look, so I'm going to skip the bronzer. I'm going to go straight into kind of a plumy shimmery blush because that's kind of the look. It's that porcelain skin with that dramatic kind of cheekbone. I don't want to use anything matte because this look is very shimmery and glowy and glossy. It's very glamorous. I'm going to use something with a shimmer to it. I'm going to go right to the cheekbones. Basically, you want to from the apple of the cheek, which right here, and up the cheekbone. I'm using a stippling technique with my brush, which is kind of like buffing it into the skin. If you swipe it, it's going to fall off the cheek. You want it to look really natural. You don't want it to be a stripe. You want it to look very, very natural like you just went out for a run and your cheek got flushed. You want it to blend, blend, blend. You pile on the color. It doesn't have to be that natural. When we're at the tail end of this look, your whole face is going to be very dramatic. You want your cheekbones to also kind of coincide with your eyes. You can add a little more and a little more, depending. This has a glow to it, so it's giving a nice irradiances. It's a great, great evening look. Make sure you blend, blend, blend. Alright. That's the cheekbone."
