How-To: The Best Blush Placement for Your Face Shape

We love Blush, not only for its ability to brighten your complexion, but because, when used strategically it can help contour and shape your face. We all have unique face shapes that require strategic blush placement to help create balance and accentuate our best features. We created this Blush placement guide to help makeup mavens like you get the most out of your blush!

 

Face Shape: Round

Use blush to balance the face by applying blush upwards along the cheekbone and towards the temples.

Face Shape: Square

Blush can help soften a square or angular face. Start by applying blush below the cheekbone and extend towards the hairline.

Face Shape: Oval

Oval faces are fairly geometrical so it's  easy to play around with blush placement. Keep blush on the apples of your cheeks and avoid extending all the way to the temples.

Face Shape: Heart

To create balance, use blush to help the face appear more square. Start by applying blush below the apples of the cheeks and then sweeping upwards towards the center of the ear.
