"So the next thing we're going to do is we are going to apply some blush to the apples of her cheeks. This is a really unique blush, it is actually a gel, if you can see it on my q-tip there. It reacts with the proteins in your skin, so it will turn the perfect color that you flush. So, I like to apply this with my foundation brush. I'm just going to take a little bit. Can you smile for me? Then concentrate it right to the apples of the cheeks. You can see, it just gives her a really really perfect pretty flushed look. It kind of takes the guess work out of having to choose a proper blush aid for yourself. It's pretty neat. So it just gives her a really nice, pretty pop of pink right on the apples of the cheeks. The fact that it's a gel is going to give it a lot more longevity. So it's going to stay on. It's also a really nice natural look. So this whole look is all about just looking really nice and natural, really fresh faced flush. So, that's how you would want to apply some blush to the apples of the cheeks."
