After you have blended out your contour swipe translucent powder all over your face to set your foundation(try to use a basic translucent powder versus a tinted powder)
Next you can apply some blush to the apples of your cheeks. Nothing too dark. I use MAC's blush in "Gingerly"(pinky peach)

I have to say this is one of my favorite contouring techniques! The products are inexpensive, long lasting, blends easily, not cakey, and great shades for all skin tones.
The key is to blend well.
