The
Wonderful World of Blushers
When you
think about facial makeup, what
do you think of first? Which
aspects of facial makeup are
important, which are essential,
and which ones can you take or
leave? You be the judge.
Gone are
the days when women stuck to one
color blusher usually pinks or
peaches. Now days, blushers come
in a whole new variety of colors
and different formulations. There
are vast array of clever new
formulas. The main choices are
traditional powder, a cream
texture, a modern liquid or a gel
finish. So there is certainly one
out there to suit your skin
type.
Powder
blush is the easiest to use. If
you prefer this type, choose one
that isn't too sparkly or it'll
enhance your wrinkles. Shimmery
blushers are far kinder to mature
skin as they diffuse fine lines,
making the delicate skin around
your cheeks look younger. And as
your skin feels drier as you get
older, you could also try
moisturizing cream formula that
gives a flattering sheen to your
skin.
All Skin
Types
Right
type: LIQUID CHEEK
STAINS
Reason:
They're excellent for all skin
types and face shapes, as you can
use a little to achieve a natural
flush of color, or layer to build
up the shading to an intense hue
that will last all through the
day.
How
to apply: They work best
on bare cheeks and need to be
applied quickly to avoid
mistakes. Apply powder blusher
over cheek stains for ultimate
staying powder.
If you base
what you do on inaccurate
information, you might be
unpleasantly surprised by the
consequences. Make sure you get
the whole facial makeup story
from informed sources.

Dry
or Combination
Skin
Right
type:
CREAM
Reason:
Cream blusher is the
best if you have dry to
combination skin as
there's no powder to sit
on your dry patches.
Also, the texture helps
your skin maintain a
natural , luminous
glow.
How
to apply: It's
easy to apply on bare
skin or over foundation.
If you have a round face
don't shade apples of
your cheek instead apply
it on your cheekbones,
slanting towards your
temples.

Oily
Skin
Right
type: POWDER
Reason:
It's classic, and perfect for
achieving dense color coverage.
It's the best texture for
contouring your cheekbones, and
is ideal for oily skin as it lies
well on your skin's surface and
reduces shine.
How
to apply: Sweep on to
your cheeks in a croissant shape
for a natural - looking
flush.
Mature
Skin
Right
type: GEL OR
MOUSSE
Reason:
Mousse and gel formulas are great
for mature skins and if you want
a subtle result. They can be worn
alone on bare skin or layered
over foundation, before powder,
and are less fiddy to use than
liquid stains. All mousse
formulas offer pretty velvety
finish and are really smooth to
apply.
How
to apply: When putting on
gel or mousse blusher, tap it
gently on to your cheeks and
blend upwards and outwards with
your fingertips. But don't apply
it on top of your make- up as you
will not be able to blend
it.
