Get the Look: Illamasqua's Alt-Cheeks

Experiencing flush fatigue? Try Illamasqua's blush ideas for your alter ego--perfect experiments for the weekend.

Alt-cheek 1: Chiseled
Ever notice the unique shape of Illamaqua blushes? There's function in that design. Place a curved side of the packaging just under your cheekbone and use it as a stencil to create a superstructured look. Apply Powder Blusher in Panic above the curve, then sweep a light dusting of Pure Pigment in Breathe over the cheekbones to highlight.




Alt-cheek 2: Doll-like
The key to this look is concentrating a true-pink color on the outer and upper part of the cheek: Swirl Powder Blusher in Chased from the apples of the cheeks all the way up to the temples, and blend toward the eyes.







Alt-cheek 3: Foiled
Give your cheeks extreme sheen for a night out. The illumination will standout in dark places. First, smooth Illuminator in Fondle across your cheekbones and up to the temples. Follow by buffing Cream Blusher in Lies onto the apples of cheeks.
