Shake a very small amount of blush into the lid. Squeeze the end of the brush hairs together so you pick up a small amount of mineral blush. Tap off excess. The pigment in blush is strong so you only need a little. Smile! - Apply to the apples of your cheeks with a light upward sweeping motion. Don't go too close to the nose, above the cheekbone, under the eye, or as far as the hairline. Your face will look fuller with blush concentrated on the apples of your cheeks. Conversely, your face will look narrower with blush angled out toward your temples (blend well at outer edges and slightly down to avoid a horizontal stripe). Starting with a light layer, you can always add more.
