Blake Lively blots blusher on her scalp

Actress Blake Lively blots blusher on her scalp, the top of her nose and eyelids to achieve an all-over "asymmetrical" warmth to her skin.

"I also like to have a light lipstick in my purse - just a kiss of colour. I'll blot on my cheeks and eyelids. I learned that from a make-up artist years ago - you take blush and put it on your cheeks, on the tip of your nose and wherever your parting is, as that's where you get the most sun.

"That way it never looks like blush, it looks like the warmth showing up on your skin, asymmetrically. Not like make-up," Lively told Vogue, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

However, she doesn't like to look too "make-uppy" and will ditch a face full of make-up to adorn a layer of sunscreen and tinted moisturiser for her everyday aesthetic.

"On a day-to-day basis I just normally wear sunscreen, tinted moisturiser and nothing else really. Nothing really make-uppy," she said.
