They say Blusher, I say ROUGE ROUGE ROUGE !!!

Rouge is the vintage grammar used for Blush.


I strongly think that a full face makeup is not complete without blusher

A touch of colour over your cheeks/cheek bone , makes your face come alive, giving your skin depth and contour to your cheeks and accentuates your inner glow

Blusher, can be used to create an illusion of  what you want to look like or portray. i.e with blusher, you can create,  fat chubby cheeks, goldie glowing cheeks, edgy cheeks, slim cheeks and so on(the list is endless).

Unfortunately blush comes in a huge variety of shades, hues and tone. So for beginners, its almost like picking the right foundation for your skin tone

WHAT SKIN TONE? WHAT BLUSHER?
One GOLDEN rule is..... The darker your skin, the deeper and stronger colour Rouge and the lighter your skin the lighter rouge.





Pink UnderTone: Cool colours like mauve, rose and pinkish plum

Olive-Skinned: Orange, copper, coral, almond or peach


                                                                                        
                                                                                           Very dark skin: Auburn, dark red and flushed














How to apply
To get the right shade and colour blush,it will require a  full face makeup. This will let you know if the blush is balanced on your skin tone.
With a blush brush, apply the blusher from your cheeks up to your cheek bone, sweeping back and forth, softly (blending) to give it balance on your skin
And if you mistakenly apply too much blush, don't fret. Get a dry tissue and tap on it softly.


P.S....For your face to come alive, glow and look pretty apply blush

      Remember, All will be in vain without Rouge (blush)..... ;)
