Answer 1

1. Apply powder bronzer on cheeks, forehead, and the bridge of your nose.

2. Put a bit of highlighter on your cheekbones (you can also just use the Benefit bronzer / highlighter combo).

3. Put a bit of blush on the apples of your cheeks.

I hope this helps!

Cleanse, tone, and moisturize your face so that your skin is clean and ready for makeup.

If you have foundation, apply it if you want, but don't apply it on a daily basis.

Sweep bronzer with a blush/powder brush all over face, starting from forehead, then cheeks, then nose, and lastly, chin. Go very light because too much bronzer makes you look too tanned and depending on how shiny it is it could make your face look oily. If you accidentally applied too much bronzer, apply some bronzer on your neck too to make sure the color of your neck matches your face; or even better, just wash it off and start over.

After you're finished applying bronzer, blow on your brush or tap it for any excess bronzing powder, and dip it into your blush.

Get a good amount (it depends on how pigmented your blush is) and dab and blend it on the apples of your cheeks (which is the part of your cheeks that gets raised when you smile). [Blow on the blush brush if you got too much to get the excess powder off] Blend it up to your temples in a kind of upside down comma shape to get the most natural looking glow.

Now, if you have liquid bronzer and a cream blush, no blushes are involved.

Get a bit of liquid bronzer, and dab little drops on your forehead, your cheeks, your chin, and a tiny bit on your nose. If you do not blend well with your fingers, use a wedge sponge to blend it as good as you can, you don't want it to look oily. [Mix bronzer with foundation if you're wearing foundation]

After bronzer has been applied, get some of your cream blush on your fingers, then sweep in a line in the middle of the apples of your cheeks. After this, blend with your fingers in a circular motion for the most natural look.

Now, if your skin is oily, then skip the bronzer on your cheeks and just apply it to the forehead and chin, this makes sure that you don't overdo your cheeks with both bronzer and blush.

Break the foundation first rule and start by applying concealer to any obvious blemishes.

Apply a little tinted moisturizer all over your face to give a light sheen.

Take a tawny-brown or browny-pink blusher and apply this very lightly to the apples of your cheeks, the tip of your nose, the tip of your chin and around your hairline.

Apply a shadow with a little shimmer in it to your eyelids. Good colors for this include golds, bronzes, brown or black mascara.

Know that if you are a blonde or redhead, define your brows. Color on the face can make them disappear, so brush them lightly with some eyeshadow in the same shade or one tne darker than their natural color.

Apply a shade of lipstick just one tone darker than your natural lip color. Now, brush over this lightly with a little frosted lipstick, shimmery pale shadow or lip gloss to create a light, sheeny look.

I hardly ever wear my blush, so I can't help you, but, why not actually *go out* in the sun. That would create a natural sunkissed look, because you *are* sunkissed. x.x

EDIT: I'm a country chick, I've given up on trying to look perfect. =P I meant no offence. =)
