Are You Feeling Pale This Winter - Follow These Make Up Tips To Create A Rosy & Glowing Complexion
It's that time of year after the festivities are over and we are waiting for Spring to appear on the horizon. This is sometimes the season of feeling a bit under-the-weather and as they say "If you look good you feel good" so here are some tips to help create a rosy glowing complexion to brighten your day.
- This involves using blusher in your chosen shade, which can be either powder or cream, whichever is your personal preference.
- Apply the blusher after applying foundation or straight onto your cleansed and moisturised skin, depending on your make up routine and whether you are applying day or night-time make up.
- Smile at yourself in the mirror - smiling even when you don't really feel like it releases endorphins, seratonin and natural pain killers - ie natural drugs that make us feel better and which strengthen our immune system.
- Whilst you are smiling (which makes the apples of your cheeks more prominent) take note that this is where the sun would naturally sun-kiss your cheeks.
- Using a powder blusher and a large, soft brush apply this to your blusher pot and then brush lightly onto the skin in one direction starting with the apples of your cheeks and working upwards and outwards along your cheekbones. Don't apply too much colour in one area as a subtle glow is the aim.
- If you are using a cream or gel blusher, use your fingers (which I find more controllable than a sponge) and apply in semi-circular motions starting again with the apples of your cheeks and working away along your cheekbones.
