Step 2: Get the right kit
“I like contouring kits, since they have all the shades you need right there and some, like Smashbox’s Step-By-Step, have application instructions inside, too.”
Step 3: Learn the dark arts
กกกก“With the darkest color in the kit, I sculpt under the height of the cheekbones and diagonally down toward the jawline using a small round brush and feathering the edges. This deepens the hollows of the cheeks, creating the illusion of depth there. You can also do the sides of your nose for a slimmer shape.”
Step 4: Play with dimension
กกกก“I sweep the medium color over the tops of the apples and into the hollows of the cheeks, feathering it away toward the corner of the mouth. I also go around the hair line under the jawline to define the face, and make it more three-dimensional.”
