BLUSH: THE MAKEUP TIPS & TRICKS FOR USING BLUSHERS

VARIETY OF BLUSHES TO CHOOSE FROM:

Applying blush will definitely add a warmth and color to the face and it is a form of makeup that is mostly applied mainly to the cheeks. Most of us women always wish and desire to look naturally beautiful with a glowing complexion with a warm tinge to our face to give it a gorgeous yet soft look. Blushing and blush is applied as a part of makeup especially for the particular purpose to look naturally stunning!

Blushers are usually available today in the market in a large variety of colors, tones and consistencies. They may come in the form of powder, or as cream, or as liquids or gels and each of these varieties have a special utility and are perfect for different situations.

You can apply powder blush more easily than say for example, applying liquid and cream blush. The latter should always be applied before powder. You can apply blush very easily simply by sweeping it downward from the ear to mid-cheek. Most often, it is applied from top of the ear till the end of the apple of the cheek.

The perfect shades in blush should be chosen on the basis of which color comes closest to your skin tone and complement your own complexion. Hint of light shade or nude shade of blush applied on your cheek is often perfect for that natural glow with a hint of color.

It is also very essential and vital to test the look and shade of blush on your face with full makeup to see that it makes you look balanced or not. So that the finishing appearance is natural and you don’t end up looking like a brightly done up Christmas tree.

You generally have to tone down or lighten the blushes that are of a darker shade than natural blushing colors of the cheek especially if it is for the daytime. You can do this by dabbing on some translucent or sheer powder over the blush. For the makeup for the evening or the night you can apply a bit more amount of the blush although you should decide that according to your mood and what you look you want to sport.

Applying blush as a part of your makeup can right away cheer up and freshen up a dreary and dowdy face and help you to hide the tired look on your face after a whole day of hectic activity.

Although as a word of caution do remember that don’t over use it that means if you don’t apply blush with self control and if you use too much of blush on your face then you will inevitably end up looking like a bright palette of colors!

The right way to find the shade of your natural blush color is simply bend down and touch your toes for two to three minutes and then stand straight up. The color of your cheeks then is the right blush color for you that you should go for. Yet another way to choose the shade of the right blush color for yourself is to go for the same shade as the one you are wearing on your the lip or to go with the shade of the lipstick that you are wearing. Remember shades of reds and pinks are for the winters while peaches, beiges and warm hues are more suitable for the summers.

If you have a combination or an oily skin in that case opt for powder blush as that would work well for these skin types.

A gold eye shadow would be complimentary where as silver one may not look good.
Lipsticks for dark complexion: If you have a dark skin, go for warm, earthy colors for your lips. Gold, bronze and maroon color lipsticks are in fact most excellent for dusky skins. Lighter colors like mauve, pink and silver suit on fairer skins and do not go with a dusky skin tone. Choose lipsticks with matte finish rather than frosted ones.
