Re: Correct Order To Apply Makeup

@BunSnoop  Pink Powder is a finishing powder and is meant to be applied last. But rules are meant to be broken so, if blush last works for you, go for it! - I have been known to apply a bit more blush after pink powder or other finishing powder on occasion.

Re: Correct Order To Apply Makeup

I always have some confusion about the blush and powder thing.  If you use a cream blush, I would think you would apply it after your foundation and then your powder, right??  If you use a powder blush, then it would go last after your foundation and powder, right?  I have a big issue with blush -- I never get it right so most of the time I just forget it!

I rarely use powder because of my dry skin but when I do use it and regardless of what type of blush I use, powder goes on last.  I'll blend out the edges of my blush or add some powder if I want to subdue my blush application.
