What Is Blush Draping?

Blush Draping or Blush Contouring is an easy makeup look that you can perfect in a single try, instead of using a bronzer to contour the face, this look uses a blush. This will not just add a natural flush but will also give a defined and sculpted look to your cheekbones. It adds structure to your face without the hassle of applying multiple layers of makeup.

Not convinced yet? Well! This look has something for everyone as it softens the look of a wider forehead and perfectly balances the angles of a square face. For the round face girlies, it will provide a subtle sculpted look that will emphasise your cheekbones.
