Steps to make blush stay whole day(Picture tutorial with Indian bridal or party look)


In India when  a girl is married she is suppose to look good all the time (at least initially.)Neighbors , friends and relatives all keep pouring to have glimpse of the bride or just to introduce themselves to the new member of the family.That time keeping make up intact becomes a real problem.
When I got married and was called for dinners.I use to go all dressed up with my make up on but with in one or two hours blush use to vanish no matter how good quality it was off.I read about layering of skin after I was done with all my dinner invitationFrown. Still its ok at least I know it now.Also, as I have combination oily skin which is prone to acne I do not use cream blush which do have good staying power compared to powder blush.
I used this trick in my office and the blush stayed for long in fact quiet long.My friends use to ask me how I manage to look fresh whole daySmile …It was the blush which made me look fresh and glowy .

Below are step by step pictures of how I layered the blush and the products which I used to make the blush last for long.

I have set my base with foundation .Applied lipstick and eye shadow etc etc.Lets come directly to the point that I haven’t used any blush in this pic.
                               

I used Body Shop Lip and cheek stain which is quiet an average product.You can use any cream blush or cheek stain instead of this one.This is shimmery and wont go for office look at all.For bridal or party look it is pretty ok.Will review it soon.

Apply the lip and cheek stain in dots and let it stay for one minute.Starting from the apple of the cheek to the cheek bones.

                      Blend the cheek stain.I can hardly see it though some amount of shimmer is apparent.

                          Now take a powder blush in blush brush..I am using Colorbar Blush 04 Peachy rose.

                                               Tap it a bit to remove the excess blush from the brush.

                                                  Set the cheek stain with powder blush.

                                                         This is before and after picture

This way blush will stay for 5-6 hours easily and even if the blush is removed the cheek stain will still be there.

  13. Yaa powder blush vanishes and one can not over use it..you can use cheek stain, cheek tint and cream blush they all work fine..Smileavoid cream blush if u have oily skin.
