Where to Hightlight and Contour

Highlighting and contouring get put on the back-burner by many inexperienced make-up artists. I personally highlight and contour my face every day, and I'm telling you, it makes a huge difference. Below is the list of places where to place your highlight and your contour:
  • Highlighting- You should highlight with a concealer that is 2 shades lighter than your skin tone. You should place your highlighter on the tops of your cheekbones, under your eyes, on your chin, the center of your forehead, on the bridge of your nose, and your cupid's bow.
  • Contouring- You should contour with a matte powder that is 2 shades darker than your skin tone, or a bronzer that isn't too dark for your skin. Apply contour on the sides of your forehead, on your temples, below your cheekbones, down the sides of your nose, and on your jawline. Make sure to blend well.
