Blush Blotchy & or Patchy Problems (With Products)?

Okay, so i have tried a variety of types of blushes ranging from name brands to textures (compressed powder form, to mouse, to lipsticks lol etc) and they always end up blotchy on my skin, some even after application.


I wear Tru Blend by cover girl (whipped foundation).





My skin is normal (not greasy not dry), and i always clean it thoroughly as well as moisturize it (mostly on parts of my face that feel tight after washing eg nose %26amp; chin).





Is there a certain way of applying blushes? How can someone avoid patchy blush problems, what to avoid what you'd recommend.Blush Blotchy %26amp; or Patchy Problems (With Products)?
It sounds like you can use any blush. The key here is the tool you are using and how you are applying it and also to use barely any product! In order to avoid blotchiness, if you are using a powdered compressed blush:


1) DAB your brush into your blush just a couple of times.


2) Swipe the brush on any surface such as forearm/tissue, etc. to get rid of the intense colour


3) Now you may sweep the brush onto your cheek.


4) clean your brush from colour using tissue again


5) Now you may use the brush to blend the light cheek colour just slightly out towards your temples. The whole point here is to create a very light application.





~With any cream/liquid/mousse blushes, dab colour on your finger, apply 3 dots on cheek (hint-like in triangle connect the dots shape), and then blend blend in circular motion using your fingers or foundation brush, and then outwards on cheek bone toward ear-temple area. If you have trouble smearing, you may add more moisture to your skin, or use a shiny moisture cream such as MAC Strobe cream. I hope that was clear! Goodluck!!!Blush Blotchy %26amp; or Patchy Problems (With Products)?
Biotherm Sells A Good Line Of Blushes and Products. Also you should use A Large Brush. They work well and dont act Blotchy. If it still looks blotchy after this try Biotherm Liquid Foundation and then put on your Blush. That defiantly will not make it look blotchy!
I have the same problem. All I do is blend the blotchy parts with a tissue to make it even. It's tiring to do it everyday, but it's the only thing that works for me.
I use Bare Minerals angled face brush and any of their blushes. The brush is amazing! I got a deal where I got a make-up bag, blush and brush for 8 dollars at ULTA, but I think the brush is normally about 22.00! which is expensive, but I love it. I say search for a cheap price for the brush online. and use mineral make-up with it (probably doesnt matter what brand)
use a loose powder color with a relatively small brush,


and after picking up the powder on the brush,


shake it back over the container, and press it into the lid.


this packs it perfectly to blend onto your cheeks!





make sure you smile while you apply it... it gets it onto the apples of your cheeks!
