This week : Choosing The Right Type & Color Of Blush

First : Real life.

How to choose the right type and color of blush? Should you go powder, cream, tint, shimmer, or gel? Peach, rose, coral, or bronze? Since there are many different types of blush out there, I am going to cover the five main types so you can choose what kind you need and when (day or night).

Powder Blush - Powder blush is great for all skin types, but best for oily skin and anyone looking for long-lasting color.

Cream Blush - This type of blush is best applied with the fingers. It’s also dense, but lets your skin show through. Cream blush is particularly suited for dry skin because of its rich, moisturizing ingredients.

Gel Blush - Gel blushes provide a sheer glow. They work best on oily to normal skin and are hard ot spread onto dry skin since they are fast-drying.

Tint Blush - Like gel blush, tints are fast-drying and can look streaky over foundation. If you’re going to use it, blend it fast and blend it well. Once it’s set it won’t budge until you wash your face.

Shimmers Blush - These are great for giving a light gleam to your cheekbones. These are best for nighttime.

Colors of Blush:The best colors for blush to choose are those which are close to your skin tone. Following this guideline will help you avoid choosing a blush color that seems artificial. The perfect blush color is one that looks as natural as possible.

Techniques you can use to find your natural blush color:

1. Bend down and touch your toes with your fingers for two minutes and then stand back up. (You may need to climb a flight of stairs if this doesn't work). The color of your cheeks that is there at this moment is the right blush color for your face.
2. Look to see what color your cheeks look like after you have been out in the cold or exercising at the gym.
3. To find your natural blush color you can also pinch your cheeks and wait for a few seconds.
4. Another helpful way to find the right blush color for your skin tone is to match it with your current lip color. If you favor pink tones for your lips, it’s likely that a pink blush color will also work well on your cheeks.
   
   
   And when you go to the nearest shop to buy some blush choose that very similar color. Don't waste your money on a blush that will make you look riddicolous ;)

   Make-up Do-s and don't's
   
   
   -Eyes :
   
   
   
   
   Don't apply your eyeshadow all over to your eyebrows! You'll run out of eyeshadow + it doesn't look so well! Instead, apply your eyeshadow in a shape of a wing and put more coats, if you like to wear bold, heavy make-up. 
   
   
   Lip liner:
   
   I'm not sure if you have any lip liner. It used to come with Sephora so if you do, don't ever match two different colors! As you can see in the picture - pink and dark red are definitely a don't!
   
   
   Kohl Liner:
   
   You can't apply all kohl liner on both of the eyes. You'll run out of it.
   So just put it on the important areas or do it like I did.
   
   
   Blush:
   
   I've seen this A LOT of time on stardoll. And does the doll look good with the wrong blusher applied the wrong way? Definitely not!
   
   
   Instead, do this :
   
   
   
   It works differently on other skin tones. But, use one shade (3, tops) darker than your doll's skin tone. And just take two strokes, don't waste the whole blusher!
