Contour your face with four easy steps.
Get Rachel’s look: “After applying a liquid foundation ‘in circular motions to create a porcelain, airbrushed effect,’ she puts a bronzing powder in a ‘3’ shape (from her temples down to her cheekbone and underneath her jawline). Then she follows up with a touch of highlighter on her cheekbones and blush on the apples of her cheeks (brushing upward).”
Combine blush and bronzer for radiant looking cheeks.
Meredith says: “Blush plus Bobbi Brown’s bronzing powder on my cheeks. It creates a perfect bronzy blush.”
The Bobbi Brown Bronzing Powder is available here.
Add water to your foundation brush for a natural finish.
Ashley puts “a little water on [her] brush to thin [foundation] out a bit” to achieve a smooth, natural look, especially if the makeup is a little thick.
Look alive during your travels with two key products.
Virginia says: “When I’m traveling, my two key products are mascara and lipstick — which gives you a bit of color even if you’re tired.”
Repurpose your leftover lipstick as blush.
Deborah says: “I had a phase when I went crazy for red lipsticks, so I have all of these half tubes leftover, and of course, I won’t throw them away. I started using them for blush. I put a smudge [of red lipstick] on the apple of my cheek with my finger, go around in a circle and maybe tap it a few times. Then I brush on the bronzer.”
