• Find the right shade of blush, one that works best with your skin tone. A peach or a pink never fails
• Apply with a brush, makeup sponge, your fingers, or directly onto the skin
• Smile wide, and apply the blush on the apples of your cheeks and move upwards and outwards
• The best thing about the blush? It's so versatile that you can use it on the lids or even the lips

What else you need to know:

• The exact spot where the blush is applied depends on the shape of your face.
• For oval faces, apply it on the cheekbone (just above it and not on it).
• For heart-shaped faces, soften the edges and apply the blush to the outer corners of the cheekbones (add a touch on the temples to the centre of the forehead for balance)
• For round faces, choose a matte blush and swipe downwards, from the ears towards the mouth
• You can even layer it up-use a subtle peach or pink just below the cheekbone and a brighter shade that pops from the apple of the cheeks right up to the hairline
