How To Actually Contour:A Step By Step Guide

The contour should enhance the natural face shape that is different from everyone so depending on your bone structure and the shape of your face. So let us see more further on this blog:

1. Prep your face before adding some makeup on your face: As always start with skincare. So wash your face and then apply the moisturizer to keep the makeup from clumping up around any of your dry skin. Especially in this winter season, you need to apply some of the moisturizers before you apply the makeup on your face. So the primer actually acts as a buffer between your skincare and your makeup products allowing it to work more further.

2. Add the Shadow: The darker shades will help to make a good contour under your cheekbones. Find your cheekbones by sucking in your cheeks and tracing the product along the hollow of your cheeks by following the natural jawline. Depending on your face shape and the unique features you can play with the makeup shadow that follows that are the jawline, cheekbones, and hairline.

3. You need to highlight: Apply the lighter shade or a highlighter to reflect light naturally. The area near the forehead, the bridge of the nose, the top of the cheekbones around the eyes, and the brow bones. You can pick up the concealer that is lighter to your skin tone.

4. Using your blusher: Apply blush to the apples of your cheek it can help your makeup look more natural and it will act as a natural bridge between your shadow and the highlight areas.

5. After applying everything blend it nicely: Try to blend the makeup by using the big fluffy brush or the makeup sponge and blend it nicely until the lines you created look more natural.

Know the Shape Of Your Face For The Contouring

Ishikka Jolly is the best makeup artist in Gurgaon she is going to describe more in this beauty blog for you on how to contour your face depending on the shape of your face.

1. For a Round Face: If you have a round face as you probably have a round chin, and your cheeks are the widest part of your face, so do apply the contour around the sides of your forehead and the temples to slim down this area. Below your cheekbones from your ear to the middle of your cheek and then down to the jawline.

2. For an oval face shape: You need to contour along your hairline to give the illusion of a smaller forehead. So you need to contour it below your cheekbones starting at your ears and ending in the middle of your cheeks.

3. For a diamond shape: How you need to contour is just below the cheekbones starting at your ears and ending up in the middle of the cheeks. Do not bring the contour too close to your mouth, as this will have the opposite effect that you’re looking for.

4. For a Heart Shape Face: Contour it along the sides of your forehead and the temples to balance out the wider upper half of your face with the narrower lower half and yes you need to contour it on the lower chin to bring up the point.

5. For a square / Rectangular Face: Do apply the contour around the sides of the forehead and temples to slim down the area. Below the cheekbones starting at your ears and ending up in the middle of the cheeks.
