So... How do we apply blush the correct way? I don't wear it much and only have worn it a few times in my life on special occasions, and I don't think I did it too right! Haha so any pictorials or explanations will do... Love you all! 😘

Its in your preference but I do it right on the cheek bone not where the hollows are but above it and I take TWO fingers and place them right next to my nose thats where the blush should start then I use an upward motion on the cheekbone giving your face a more lifted appearance.

The blush should start after the two fingers.

Make sure not to apply on on the apples of your cheek because when your not smiling it doesn't look right.
I apply right on my cheek bone.

Everyone's face is different. I would first identify your face shape & then look up a youtube tutorial on how to apply blush for your particular face shape.

On the cheek bone, not the apples.

Haha it's hard to describe kind of! But I don't put it on my apples..I put it on my cheekbone and just sweep it back towards my hairline, and blend! 😘😁

Based on your structure, I would apply it right near the cheekbone. I actually hold my brush flat against the skin (not using the head/tip of the brush, but the side) and pat it on.

I sort of pout and suck in my cheeks so I can see my cheekbones more clearly, then apply it:)
