How to Apply Blush Tape & Glow Tape for a Lit-From-Within Look

Quick Answer

Apply Blush Tape first to the apples of your cheeks and blend upward, then tap Glow Tape onto the high points of your face for a dewy, lit-from-within glow. Use your fingers or a damp sponge for seamless blending.

Step-by-Step Application for a Lit-From-Within Look

1. Start with a clean, moisturized base: Apply your skincare and primer, then foundation if desired. Let each layer set before moving on. A hydrated base helps liquid products blend seamlessly and prevents patchiness.
2. Dot Blush Tape onto the apples of your cheeks: Use the applicator to place one or two small dots on each cheek, starting with less product than you think you need. Building in thin layers avoids a heavy, clown-like flush.
3. Blend Blush Tape upward and outward: Use your fingers or a damp sponge to tap and blend the color toward your temples for a lifted effect. Blending upward enhances cheekbones and avoids a downward, tired look.
4. Tap Glow Tape onto high points: Apply a small amount to the tops of your cheekbones, brow bones, and down the bridge of your nose. Blend with your finger or a sponge. Keep the highlighter concentrated on high points to catch light naturally.
5. Blend the edges for a seamless finish: Use a clean, damp sponge to gently tap over the edges of both blush and highlighter to melt them into your skin. Blending the edges prevents visible lines and creates a lit-from-within effect.
6. Set only where needed: If you have oily skin, lightly powder the center of your face, avoiding the high points where you applied Glow Tape. Powdering over highlighter can dull the glow, so keep it minimal on those areas.
