I just realized I didn't answer the question! 🤷🏼‍♀️ 

Wayne Goss DOES apply the blush stick to his nose in the video... which made me think of it!

Re: Do you put blush on your nose?

Yes, in the summertime, a very light brush stroke near the bridge where I would normally get a sun kiss. I know many say a definite NO but it works for me so I do it.

Re: Do you put blush on your nose?

I think a lot of factors come into play here. If your skin tone has a lot of red, the last thing needed is blush all over. The face shape dictates where blush or bronzer is placed, too.

For me it depends on the time of year for when to apply my blush on my nose for a summertime sunkissed look. During the winter, blush on my nose would just make me look like I'm cold or experiencing a cold or a flu. 🤒

 

I put bronzer on my nose mostly, not so much blush.

@SilleeMee  No matter what I see on YT, I still have to do "me".

 

I wear glasses with black frames (not as big as SK) but which are obvious on fair skin and a head full of white hair...think Rose Marie Swift.

 

If I put on more blush than needed high on cheek bones on my small face, I'd look flushed and red.

Re: Do you put blush on your nose?

I do not apply blush on my nose. It's my understanding that blush shouldn't go any further inward than even with the pupil. Maybe that's changed from the old school way I learned.  I have a medium skintone and will use a light or medium bronzer in the E-3 technique.  I use the lighter as contour on the sides of my nose. (when I think of it).  I keep the bronzer light so it doesn't look like I have mud in my face.  Blush goes on the cheek, even with the pupil and swept back and upward.  I have seen where some people will recommend sweeping the blush up towards the temple. I have tried that a few times, but haven't decided if I like it or not.

Re: Do you put blush on your nose?

Yes, I sweep blush across the middle of the bridge of my nose, where the sun would hit. I keep it subtle and I think it gives a youthful look.

Be careful with this.  You may end up looking like either a drunk on a bender or the victim of a horrid cold.  I wouldn't do it.

 

Maybe a touch on the forehead?

Re: Do you put blush on your nose?

I've never put blush on my nose. Don't think I would do it. My nose tends to look a bit red due to allergies in Spring, Summer, & Fall so I try to camouflage that.
