What is Contouring & Highlighting?
If a contour and highlight is applied correctly, it can help
enhance your facial features and many times adds a slimming affect. Contour

create shadows. Adding a highlight to your face helps to enhance the contour
lines and bring out a specific features.

How to Achieve the Look:
Step 1: Prep Skin
Apply an overall moisturizer to help prepare your skin
before starting your makeup routine. Ensuring a moisturized base is applied to
your face can help keep all makeup in place throughout the day.
Step 2: Apply Foundation
Cover your face with foundation, as you normally would. This
helps even out skin tone and creates a great base to ensure the contour and
highlight can stand out.
Step 2: Use Darker Tone to Contour
Select a contour color that is a shade or two darker than
your natural skin tone. Apply your contour along the hair line, underneath the
cheekbones, and along the jawline and neck. Some artists will apply a solid
line, while others prefer a dotted line to achieve this look.
Step 3: Apply Highlight

A highlight should be one or two shades brighter than your natural
facial tone. This should be added under eyes, on the chin, across forehead, and
along the bridge of your nose. Highlighting these areas helps illuminate your facial
feature, making them stand out.
Step 4: Overall Blend
Take a sponge and dab the defined contour and highlight
lines to smooth them out into skin around it. Blending these together helps
create a more natural look.
Step 5: Set Your Look
Lastly, apply a light powder to help set your overall look. This
can assist in making your makeup last all day without any smears or running. If
you desire, you can also add some blush to the apples of your cheek to help
them pop.
