The Revelation

As a 40-something woman who loves experimenting with makeup, I recently stumbled upon a game-changing beauty tip that has completely transformed my blush application technique. It turns out that the classic method I’ve been using for years may not be the most flattering for my age group.

Meet Makeup Artist Mia Hawkswell

Makeup artist Mia Hawkswell, known for her work with celebrities like Pamela Anderson and Rose Byrne, has been creating beauty content tailored specifically for women over 40. She emphasizes that the techniques we’ve grown accustomed to may not always be ideal as we age.

The New Blush Application Technique

Hawkswell’s innovative approach involves dividing the face in two halves to demonstrate the do’s and don’ts of blush application. Instead of applying blush on the traditional apples of the cheeks, she recommends placing it under the eyes, on top of the cheekbones, and close to the contour if you use it. This upward application technique helps counteract the effects of gravity and provides a lifted, more youthful appearance.

Experience the Difference

After trying out Hawkswell’s technique, I can confidently say that it works wonders. The simple adjustment in blush placement has made a significant difference in the overall look and feel of my makeup. By blending the blush upwards towards the temples, I’ve achieved a softer, more radiant complexion that defies age.
