Blush placement ?

[packgal]

hey wendy,
i agree with everyone, your pics are so cute.
have you ever tried contouring? i think using a contour and a highlight color, including your blush color, will help you figure out the best place to wear your blush. i know i like my blush best when i have time to contour around it.
the way you contour depends on your face shape. since none of your pics are straight on, it is difficult for me to tell for sure what shape your face is; i'm betting round but it might be heart shaped too.
on this website at the bottom, it has diagrams for how to contour each face shape. the diagrams are very good. using them as guides, i drew in highlighter, blush, and a contour shade into your pics. i did one following the round diagram:

and one following the heart diagram:

you can tell the contour and highlight are placed in very different spots in each one, and in the heart shape the blush is placed a little higher on your cheek. you can experiment to see which one works best for you.
if you want to be very scientific, you can measure your face to try and figure out exactly the shape. lots of websites describe how to do this, here's one as an example.
have fun! i hope this helps. i suggest angel glow as an excellent highlighter!! for contouring, you can use a bronzer type product or a shade of foundation a bit darker than your usual.

This is awesome. I'm tempted to post my picture to get y'alls expert analysis. People pay big bucks for this kind of personalized advice

Oh bless you, Wendy for starting this thread! I feel like my face is all cheek too, but you've done me such a picture! You are absolutely adorable in your picture, and you have made me feel much better about my cheeks. And blush on my cheeks, lol.

@Packgal:
Thank you, my face is almost certainly round I'll definitely be giving contouring a go when I get a better Angled Blush brush. I have some of the dark brow colour, I'm going to mix some with my foundation to see how that works as a contour colour.

@Silverfern:
Go for it!

@Ethereal Jane:
Cheeks are always a good thing. My older cousin has cheeks nearly as big as mine, but she has really glowy skin. They look really doughy, and I just wanna grab em and knead them, but she never lets me
