Beauty Basics: How to Apply Blush to Get Glowy Cheeks

Struggling with blush application? It’s all about applying it to the apples of your cheeks, then diffusing the color towards you temples. The MAC 116 brush makes this *super* easy!  Tomorrow, I’ll have an easy, everyday highlighting/contouring tutorial up. :)

    Wonderful vid. Highlighters and getting the glowy look is so my thing right now.
    So did you apply the highlighter first with Enough said on top? It seems like you already had it on prior to applying the blush?

      Thanks, Sarah! This is a continuation of my foundation application video, but any glow might be from Strobe Cream, which I layer under my foundation. Enough Said also has some shimmer in it, too!

      Yes, YES, it is. Impossible. I have to slow down my speech and think about it. I still mess up even then. I’m like BRUSH BRUSH and sound so dumb.
