How to Apply Cheek Tint Seamlessly

 

At this stage and time, there more brands coming up with Cheek Tints!  One brand that I honestly LOVE and collect all the tints are from Benefit.  

Benetint is my ultimate fave and it made me love the brand from the start.  But afterwards, Cha Cha Tint won my heart and I even repurchased many bottles for Professional gigs.  After throwing out a lot of the tints - as a little goes a long way and they expired on me.  I am glad to try one of the newer shades PLAY TINT - God save me, they are coming up with more shades pa!

Benefit's Play Tint is honestly so easy to use.  But easy may be for me, but not for you!  So here's a quick tutorial on how to apply tints (in general) seamlessly!

All you need is a Tint of choice and a STIPPLING BRUSH.

Steps:

1. If tints are natural-looking, complete your base makeup first without setting with powder.
2. Apply cheektint at the back of hand or a dish, grab a few amount of product with your Stippling brush.  Tap excess on tissue, hand or dish before applying straight on cheeks.
3. Stipple the product on cheeks gently and if the tint is super pigmented, blend out excess using a clean sponge..
4. If the effect is too much on your cheeks, diffuse the color by adding powder foundation on top.

This method will definitely create a seamless blush look!  See the result?

KVD Beauty MODCON Liquid Gel Blush Review

 

KVD - Kat Von D.

The most sought after make up brand as a Beauty Blogger/Enthusiast.  

I remembered wanting/trying to get my hands on Kat Von D products but I just don’t have the means beause I don’t like to order online anymore as I need to pick them up at local post offices.  

Resellers?  There are a lot of them but I do not personally know legit ones and I am obviously afraid of fakes!

So thankful for Sephora  because I can be assured of the authenticity of the makeup and skincare products.

So there…that is an intro!  Hahaha  Seriously, I was invited to KVD Beauty’s Online event 2 weeks ago and I learned so much from Nikki Wolf.  Through the process of makeup application, there are 2 products I SUPER want to try!  Their Tattoo Liner and these MODCON Liquid Gel Blush!

I hailed these the most unique blush texture I have tried to date ——

Maybelline Cheek Heat Review

 

So we all know by now how Maybelline delivers in terms of creating good quality makeup, with shades perfect for Filipinas/Asian Skin at an affordable price.  

Maybelline Cheek Heat is dubbed Best Cream Blush of 2020 in the Allure Best of Beauty Awards as seen on their international web page.  There are 6 shades to choose from in this collection while locally, correct me if I am wrong, there are a total of 4 shades (1 missing in this post which is shade Lilac).

Cheek Heat is a water-based gel cream with colorful pigments that create a buildable, natural looking blush. Check out how 3 shades look on me in a glance.

Housed in a tube colored similarly as the cheek color itself, the tube felt lightweight and it must be the gel formulation that made me feel like there wasn’t any product inside!  Thankfully, I was wrong! 

With just a few squeeze you’ll get a product oozing out instantly and I tried swatching half a pea size and true enough, I get instant color without the need for adding more!

Top to bottom: shades 15, 20 and 25
