You're aiming to choose the color that you cheeks go when you exercise so use that as a guide.
If you're still unsure, check out your local makeup counter where specialists are able to suggest the shade that best suits you – they specialize in the most natural-looking results.
As for how to apply it – blusher is supposed to go slightly above the whole length of the cheekbone and onto the apple of the cheek area.
Do's and Don'ts
Do use quick, circular motions and gradually build up the desired intensity.
Do use a brush that's really soft but not too big or you could end up looking like a clown!
Don't apply it beneath the cheekbones or it will drag the face down.
Don't use shimmery blushers or your face could appear rounder.
