Hi there. Well thank you for your suggestion as to the mineral makeup. I love the  fact that it's loose powder and I'm allowed to put as much as I like on. Not like the pressed powder there's a limit, unless one keeps adding. I mean the same would go for mineral powder but I just like the loose-ness. But I have tried mineral powder only once and it wasn't my cooler. I don't know if it was that but when I dabbed it onto my face, the blotch was noticeable. I tied to blend it as much as I could but it didn't work, I was  still able to see that blotch of loose mineral powder. But I like the foundation that I am using although I wouldn't mind a mineral powder over it, to make my foundation and all look full.

Anyhow, about the way you suggested to apply the blush, I don't know if I would agree with you because for one applying at the apples of my cheeks, I've tried it a couple of times and it didn't work for me. What I do is apply my blush near the temples and focus it downward, that way it is easily blended towards the apples of my cheeks. I  leave a two finger space from my nose to the blush so that I know how far too go. And two I'm near the fair tone of skin so by adding a darker color whether it be slightly darker to my skin, I wouldn't like it. I like my blush not to be as visible but more like a natural look. 

I couldn't imagine how adding a darker shade of blush would contour the tone of skin I have, it might work on darker skin but I've always heard to contour your cheeks by using a highlight. I've seen the way highlighting looks and it's amazing. I want to try it out soon. 

But thanks anyway for your opinion.
