Question

"How do you apply blush without going overboard?"
— Nicola

Answer

It's a hard one to master but the trick is to start with a small amount first and if needed, gradually build on it.

Always apply powder blush with a brush, and cream blush with your fingertips.

For a youthful look, blush should be applied on the balls of your cheek in circular motions. To create a more slender-looking face, apply blush under your cheekbones and blend up towards your ears.

With practice you'll eventually find what works best for you.
