How to UseApply the desired amount of foundation to the palm of your hand. Lift half onto the brush, then place it on the top innermost part of the cheekbone, holding the brush horizontally.Sweeping the brush from the center of the face outward, blend foundation into skin, holding the brush at a slight angle. Repeat the same steps on the other side of your face.Along the facial outline, stroke the brush in a light up-and-down motion to blend flawlessly. For less-than-smooth areas, such as the nose and corners of the mouth, apply foundation holding the brush perpendicular to the face so that the brush tip fits against the skin. For greater coverage, lift a small amount of foundation onto the brush and gently layer, using light tapping motions.
