How to Apply Blush for Stage Makeup

Hi! I'm Sarah Mclellan and we are in New York City. Today on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you how to apply makeup for stage. Now we're going to add to this, and this is kind of what really pops the color and makes it more stage makeup than anything else. We're going to add some really nice rosy pink blush to kind of give our cheeks some color. This is pink glow from MAC. It's definitely something that we use when we were doing 42nd Street. They really wanted us to have some pretty bright color on our cheeks. We're going to make sure we get a little bit of this color on our brush. We're going to press our lips to get our cheekbones popped out. Really go for the apple of your cheek and then blend out. Right in the apple. Add the color. Just adding the final touches of the blush. We're not starting to look very silly without our lips, but we finished our cheeks and we've almost finished our stage makeup.
