How to use it
Apply to the apples of your cheeks, then blend up along the cheekbones. Start with a light hand and layer until you reach the flush you want.
For a soft, diffused look, use an angled blush brush. To add dimension, pair it with a bronzer and a highlighter.
For blush and highlight in one powder, see Gen Nude blush with a highlighter glow.
