How To Apply Albatross
I've had Albatross for awhile now but I haven't used it much. How do you ladies normally apply it -layered on top of the blush or just the highlighting areas? I've seen some only apply under the eyes. Do you use a skunk brush? Help!!

Re: How To Apply Albatross
For me I usually apply it on my cheekbones a little above my blush/ layering the blush a bit, and I use the MAC 187 for both blush and then Albatross and i love it, especially pairing it with deep throat blush

Re: How To Apply Albatross
Corners of they eyes.
On top of blush.
Top of the cheep bone.
Under the brow.
Over the bow of the lip.
Center of the lower lip.
Shoulders, breasts.Hope this helps. Albatross is a multitasker.

I like to use a fan brush, but that is my personal preference. I like to look candlelit. like my signature picture, hope that helps.

Re: How To Apply Albatross
Exactly what Kuuipo said, Albatross can be used wherever you like. I usually use it as a cheek highlight as well as in the tearduct or brow highlight. On days when I don't wear a lot of makeup I sweep it on my lids and cheeks for a glow! This is one of my favorite products!!!

Re: How To Apply Albatross
I use a flat top brush, not the EM one because that's too dense, but I just gently tap it onto albatross and then do like a backward C from the top of my cheekbone, around my eye, ending at my browbone.

I also dust some on the bridge of my nose, if I want to look particularly glowy.

I hope that made sense...

Re: How To Apply Albatross
I mainly use it for:
-highlighting inner corner of eyes, brow bone, and all over base eyeshadow
-under lighter colored blushes (Deep Throat) to really make them pop
-top of my cheek bones
