Apart from blusher, what makeup product can I use to make my cheekbones seem more prominent?

I know about the blusher tips but I would like some more information, what brands and products do you use?


do such things as benefit moonbeam or highbeam help?Apart from blusher, what makeup product can I use to make my cheekbones seem more prominent?
Use a white shadow or concealer high under your cheeks where you want them to stand out before applying blush. The blush will conceal the obviousness yet it will still make your cheekbones stand out.





Also a cream base gives you more control, lasts longer %26amp; looks more natural. The brand doesn't really matter. I use both the cheap %26amp; expensive. Just don't use a color that with your hair color %26amp; complexion make you look more like a clown. Before buying if you can't test it in the store find a mirror %26amp; put it beside your face to see how it's going to look.Apart from blusher, what makeup product can I use to make my cheekbones seem more prominent?
The moonbeams and highbeams aswell as Revlons skinlights are great to give your cheeks a glow, but what I would also recommend is a tinted liquid blush or stain. In Uk you get it from Benefit and Jemma Kid. It looks like red water really, but it is brilliant cause being liquid it doesnt sit on top of the skin like blush or mousse, but is absorbed and gives you a natural fresh flushed look. Wear it with higbeam ontop and you would have a very natural glow.
This may sound odd but it works, and it is a must for all makeup artists. Apply your standard foundation and powder as usual. Take a slim blush brush and sweep a little mid-brown eyeshadow powder or bronzing powder (like Stila Sun)on it, then gently and very lightly sweep just under and along you cheekbone. Make sure that there is not definate line and it looks like a slight shadow. Then apply a blush (Nars Orgasm) of your choosing as usual. This will make your cheekbones standout more. If you analyse photos of celebrities on big nights out (like the Oscars) you will notice they use method often. They also do something similar for the nose to make it look slimmer and taller,
Bronzer underneath your cheekbones, blush above it, and a highlighter above that.


Try NARS the multiple in copacabana.
A highligher like Benefit's moonbeam would definately help as long as you use it properly. If you go to your nearest Benefit counter and ask one of the assistants to show you. Be careful though because in my experience Benefit sales assistants can be quite pressuring- be strong!
