Facial Contouring & Highlighting
Use this technique to balance your features and minimize flaws. Use bronzer, blush, and highlighting minerals to achieve the desired results. Practice highlight and contouring techniques until you have perfected your look. Remember, highlight areas you want to emphasize and stand out and bronze areas you want to minimize and make smaller. When you're all done, buffing and blending your makeup will minimize the appearaance of makeup lines and make your look a natural one!
Example: If your nose is a little to wide, lightly brush bronzer down each side of your nose and highlight the center of your bridge and nose. This will make your nose appear thinner and more sculpted.
Things You’ll Need:
Step1
Apply a foundation that matches your skin tone. Blend foundation well at the jaw and hairline. Make the foundation "disappear" so that there are no visible lines.
Step3
Suck in your cheeks to locate your cheek bones. Brush a small amount of matte bronzing powder under the cheek bones. Add bronzer to the bridge of your nose and at the temples. Blend all areas of bronzer well.
Step4
Brush blush onto the apples of your cheeks. Pull the blush back towards your temples, making the line of brush narrower as you get closer to the hairline. Blend the blush into the hairline and the bronzer using clean fingertips or a Beauty Essentials Brush.
Step5
Use a lighter shade of powder to highlight your face. Brush highlighting powder on the bridge of your nose and around the outer corners of your eyes. We love the "Professional Foundation Brush" for this. Add a touch of highlighter to cheek bones, your chin and the temples.
Step6
Blend all of the cosmetics well so there are no harsh lines. We recommend our Kabuki Brush for the best results. Smooth your makeup so that you can not tell where one color starts and another ends. Use a clean brush for the best blending results.
