The long face: A dot of blusher on the chin will help shorten the face. When it comes to the cheekbones, place the brush in a horizontal bar directly across the top of the cheekbones. Blend.

Place blusher in a small circle on the top of the cheekbones & blend to the outside of the face.

ROUND FACE:

The triangles of the blusher should have the apex towards the nose & should be blended all the way to the outside of the face.

Widen your eyes: Eyes that have too much lid showing need to be colored with shadow ( or kohl, if you want to go dramatic) across the entire lid, right up to the crease below the brow bone. Take a smudgy kohl pencil & blend a line halfway across the lower lash line too.

Color half the upper lid in a triangular shape with the apex of the triangle at the outer corner. Draw a line halfway across the lower lash line & blend well.

Always use eye makeup in a shade darker than the color of your eyes. Stay away from the frosted colors. Keep brows thin. Eyes with a heavy bone structure need a lighter shadow on the lid, with a dark line drawn in the crease, & blended well.

 LESSEN THE BULGE:

Apply light frosted color from the lash line all the way to the brow but keep within the bone structure of the eye socket.

Use two or three levels of the shadow across the lid and extend in a bar at the outer tip of the lid .

This can be lifted by applying shadow from the inside corner of the eye over the top lid around to the outer corner & bottom lid. Blend well for the soft look.

Dot a concealer halfway down from the inner eye area, which is the darkest part. Blend well with a very light dusting of pressed powder.

 SLEEPY EYES:

Wake up sleepy orbs with navy kohl & mascara.

Put just a dab of blusher under the tip of the nose & blend. Highlight the bridge.

Draw elongated triangles just below the cheekbones, with the apex pointing towards your jaw. Blend. Now highlight the top of the cheekbones. Blush should always be kept towards the outside of the face than just below the middle of the eye. The cheek can be hollowed by shading the outside plane of the jaw line. Color should come no closer to the middle of the face than the outside corner of the eye.

For too full lips, outline the lipid's  bow of the top lip. than fill in the centre of  both lips with a darker lip pencil. Blend, than apply your normal shade of lipstick. Always match the tip of the cupid's bow of the mouth with the nostrils - this brings the nose & mouth into harmony.

Don't take lip color all the way to the corner of the mouth.

TO SLIM A HEAVY JAW LINE:  apply blusher in a wedge just above the edge of your jaw line, than blend.
A RECEDING CHIN: can be corrected visually by dabbing blush or blusher on the centre of the chin & blending. Remember to play down eye make up ; strong eyes generally throw a weak chin into relief.
