Lift these cheeks.

Blush coloring is not a new technique, Debbie Harry did it decades ago, but it is still becoming a popular way to apply blush.

Cheeks applied to the apples of the cheeks can stay on your face when you’re not laughing.

Drape means placing the product higher on the face, so it stays “lifted” with a higher cheek appearance.

Makeup artist Levy-Jade Taylor said:

The cheek application on the face, which is higher than the traditional apples for the cheeks, helps to emphasize the cheeks.

“Mixing temples and eyes adds facial features and is completely integrated with the makeup color palette.”

If you need a pink blush, apply a pink eyeshadow to give it a cohesive look.

The best way to do this is to keep the product on the skin with a brush or a finger.

LeviJade said:

“Did you do your best? Use a hue brush to gently apply the blush. Set the color in without contaminating it.

Do you need a new blush? They will fix it for you.

There’s nothing “soft,” so use less than you think you’ll need. Minimize radiant cleansers that don’t emphasize skin texture.
