There are two ways of applying blusher, depending on the effect you would like to achieve by applying it. The two reasons people wear blusher usually are:

  • To lessen the definition of your cheek bones. If you have very protruding cheek bones and sunken cheeks, and you would like to create a more well rounded effect on your cheeks, the blusher should be applied very subtly onto the apple of your cheek (smile if you don't know where it is in order to locate it) and up along the cheek bone, fading out toward your ear.
  • To give your cheek bones more definition. If you have round cheeks and would like to create definition suck in your cheeks and apply a small amount of blusher underneath the cheek bone, and possibly a highlighter along the cheek bone to create maximum shadow and definition.

If neither of these effects is what you're hoping to achieve, then blusher should not be applied, as there is no standard procedure, unless you are willing to experiment for a while with it and see how well it works with your skin tone and the shaping of your cheeks.

Is blush or bronzer applied first?

blush, bronzer should go on last, after everything elseAnswerThere are no rules to makeup. In fact I apply the bronzer first to myself and to clients as a contour and then blend it out with blush below the cheekbones and then blend that out with the highlight color. But whatever technique works to give you the affect you want is what you should do. Try both of our suggestions and see which works for you. Good luck and have fun!Answer>> Both bronzer and blush are meant to add color to your face. Women with fair or pale skin prefer using blush to brighten up their face, while those with naturally tanned skin get better results from bronzer. However, many women use both blush and bronzer. Which one you apply first depends on your choice, but many makeup artists recommend dabbing bronzer on your nose, forehead, and chin before you apply blush. You can choose from loose powder blush, cream blush, blush sticks, etc.Honestly, if you really want your blush or bronzer to show up, then you must apply last. Foundation always goes on first, then your eyeshadow, then your eyeliner, then your mascara, then your blush. Do you want your cheekbones to look high and your cheeks to look full of color? Then apply blush after you apply your foundation, and powder.

What are the benefits of bronzer makeup?

Bronzer is a type of make-up, used to make your face glow. Although it is often confused with blusher, it is very different. To apply bronzer, you must use a blusher/bronzer brush, and apply it all over your face. It will then give your skin a natural looking glow, which is a great summer look. I would suggest that, if you want to use bronzer, you use bronzing pearls, as that is the most effective type of bronzer available. However, the longest lasting bronzer is bronzing cream.
