Guide to Contouring for a Slimmer Face

 

Here’s a step-by-step guide to contouring for a slimmer face:

Prepare Your Skin: Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply a primer to create a smooth base for your makeup.

Foundation: Apply a foundation that matches your skin tone evenly across your face.

Highlight: Use a concealer or highlighter that is one to two shades lighter than your skin tone. Apply it to the center of your forehead, the bridge of your nose, under your eyes, and on your chin.

Contour: Choose a contour product (cream or powder) that is one to two shades darker than your skin tone. Apply it along the hairline, under the cheekbones, along the sides of your nose, and under your jawline.

Blend: Use a makeup sponge or brush to blend the contour and highlight seamlessly into your skin, ensuring there are no harsh lines.

Set: Apply a translucent powder to set the makeup and prevent it from creasing.

Blush and Highlight: Apply blush to the apples of your cheeks and a highlighter to the high points of your face, such as the tops of your cheekbones and the tip of your nose, for added dimension.

Finish: Complete your look with eye makeup and lipstick as desired.

By following these steps, you can create the illusion of a slimmer, more defined face.
