If you wear blush and would like to learn the best way to apply it based on your face shape, you’re in the right place! Today, I’ll teach you how to apply blush while considering your own unique facial features and characteristics. Let’s get started!
Oval
If you have an oval-shaped face, blush should be applied down the center of your forehead and cheeks. This will give you a healthy glow. If you’re trying to achieve a more sunkissed look, apply some on your temples as well. Square: A square-shaped face looks best with blush applied diagonally across the cheekbones with light strokes up towards the hairline.
Round
If you have a round face, you should use a blush that is rosy or peach-toned to make your cheekbones stand out. Try applying it in an upside-down triangle shape starting at the apples of your cheeks, then down towards your jawline and stopping just below the earlobe. This will also help narrow the width of your face.
Square
Knowing how to apply blush is a key beauty skill that can take your makeup look from good to great. The best way to apply blush according to your face shape is by using a round brush and sweeping it across the apple of your cheek in an upward motion. For square shaped faces, you should use a flat brush and sweep the color down from the middle of your forehead into the apples of your cheeks and out toward the temples.
Diamond
If you have a diamond face shape, you need to make sure that your blush is applied right under your cheekbones. This will draw attention up and away from the length of your face.
Heart
If you have a rounder face, then apply blush by sweeping it across the apples of your cheeks. If you have a square-shaped face, then apply blush by sweeping it along your cheekbones. If you have an oval-shaped face, then apply blush by concentrating it in the center of your cheekbone and blending outwards.
