Blush, also called blusher or rouge, is a product applied to the cheeks, creating an illusion of a natural glow. It brightens up dull skin and gives instant glow and adds colour to your face instead of making you look pale. It adds a glow that Bronzer & highlighter just can’t mimic. Lot of them get confused with this step In their makeup routine regarding the shade or what kind of blush to
use. Don’t worry, Professional makeup artist Pooja Sethiya is here to help you with few basic steps that you need to follow.

1. Pick a shade that works with your skin tone, you need to choose the ride shade to flatter your complexion. Something too dark or too bright
   can actually age you instead of giving you that warm, youthful glow. The key is choose something that’s close to your natural flush and the best way to figure out what that is, is to pinch your cheeks.
2. Find the right blush formula for your skin type. There are three
   types of blushes- powder, creams and stains. If you have oily skin, a cheek stain works well. If you have normal or combination skin, creamy formulas are great and have high staying power. If you have dry skin,
   stick with a powder formula. Powder blush is great for gliding over pores for a blurring effect.
3. Pick the right blush brush, it’s true that your makeup will only look as good as the tools you apply it with. Your blush brush needs to. E dense, natural or vegan hair, soft, and easily able to diffuse the colour.
4. Apply blush according to your face shape. Blush is meant to
   strategically accent your face shape. You need to take your bone structure into account before applying it in the first place.
5. Blending is the key, just applying blush in the right areas is not enough — you need to make sure it’s blended well too. Use a damp sponge or a stiff brush to blend your blush into your face. The colour needs to blend with no harsh lines while still giving noticeable, glow colour.
