"Hi I'm Kelli, I'm an aesthetician and a makeup artist at Alta Salon and Cosmetics and I'm going to show how you can apply blush. One of the easiest ways to apply a blush, if you would just smile for me, is you want to concentrate most of your color right here on the apples of the cheek. So I'm just going to take my blush brush and I'm just going to kind of buff some blush right there and then just lightly brush right up the cheekbone. But I want most of my color focused right on that apple of the cheek. Another way that you can determine is it's about two fingers away from the nose. You never want to apply your blush any closer than that. So, smile for me again, you just want to focus most of your color right there on the apple and then lightly sweep up the cheekbone. Give a little bit of highlight and a little bit of contour. So that's how you would want to apply a blush."
