"Hi, I'm Kelli on behalf of Expert Village I'm going to show you how to apply a mineral makeup. Now I'm going to apply a little blush to the apples of her cheeks. I'm just going to clean off my brush a little bit with a little bit of brush cleaner since we did use the same brush for the bronzer that we just did. I just want to make sure that we're not mixing the two colors together. We're going to do just a little bit of blush, it's just a nice soft rosy color. And the nice thing about working with mineral makeup is it adjusts with the undertones with your skin a lot so you don't have to worry too much about a color not looking good on you. So we're just going to swirl our brush in there and tap off any excess and we're just going to apply with a soft buffing motion just to the apples of her cheeks and her cheek bone. And, if you will smile for me. The apples of the cheeks are this nice round area here you get when you smile. So that is where you want to make sure you focus the most of your color. That just gives her a really nice, soft, rosy look, almost like just a natural flush."
