The essence of life is not being perfect. It’s making mistakes and learning from them...

Makeup trends come and go, but some of us refuse to let them go. (Yikes!)

There was probably a time that you have looked at your photos and thought, what was I thinking? Don’t worry, I have done it plenty of times myself. Makeup mistakes--they happen. Let’s point them out and fix them so we can free ourselves from these bad habits.

First, let’s talk about blush. Have you ever seen someone who looks like they took a round powder puff and just pressed it on to their cheeks? I have, and let me tell you, it’s not pretty. The way we are taught to apply blush now is by considering your face shape. For example, when you have a square face, you should gently apply on the apple of the cheek for a soft round powder puff look. But blending is the real secret because it makes the blush look natural and gives you a healthy glow! For more on blush, check out these face shapes and blush applications listed below.
