Goldenaire looks great to highlight cheekbones, i havent used it as a straight up blush yet, but i love it to highlight.

Acid Orange and Bright Coral are awesome on darker skin- esp sallow complexions, Pink Pearl, Violet, Rose, Vanilla, Pink Opal, and I also use many of the colors from sweetscents on the cheeks too- but I guess this is MAC talk, so I will just skip over those titles.

Once in a while I will use a tiny bit of chartreuse as a highlighter if it looks good with my look.

Bright Fuchsia and Fuchsia I have used too. and All Girl....

What brush BESIDES THE 187 could I use for applying pigments to cheek? Could I use a normal blush brush?

a wise Specktra member suggested to me a while back to try Tan as a duplicate of the color I loved in the Naked You MSF, and she was right on! What I did was sprinkle a little on top of a cake of a nude shade Clinique blush so it mixed a little of it with that blush, which was a fairly hardened powder so it didn't overtake the pigment powder, although I could have mixed it with some loose powder also, I suppose. But anyway, it gave me the Naked You shade without all the silver glitter chunks! I love it!

Blush brush, fingers, mix them in with your moisturizer or foundation, there are lots of ways to incorporate them into products and looks for your face and cheeks.

You've got to try it! It's not a "tan" shade, but applies just like the wonderful shade found in the Naked You! Tan makes you think it'd be like a bronzer or a brownish, but it's more of a nude-natural cheek color. I was so thankful to Specktra member Jpohrer for that suggestion!
