How to Apply Cream Blush

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit

When used correctly, cream blush gives you a dewy, fresh look. Maximize your cream blush potential with these helpful tips.

Steps

1. Understand that cream blush is harder to use than powder blush. So practice getting it right before going out.
   
2. Put a small amount of the product on your fingertips.
   
3. Lightly press your fingertips over the apples of your cheeks and cheekbones, blending the blush very carefully until it's completely absorbed into the skin.
   
4. A second application may be necessary.
   
5. Tissue off any excess blush left on your fingers.
   

Tips

• Choose a cream blush that is similar in color to your natural blushing hue.
  
• It's better to build up blush color little by little than to try to correct an overload.
  
• Gone overboard with the blush? Blending a bit of powder over the area tones things down.
  

Warnings

• Make sure you don't CAKE it on.
