How to Shade the Cheeks & Jaw with Makeup

Video Transcript

"ERIN KEITH: Hi. I'm Erin and you're watching Expert Village, and today, we're going to be working on corrective base makeup. All right, now we are going to do the cheekbones and jawline. So what you want to do, same shading color that you had, maybe a little bit of kind of a lighter ash, I don't know, color yellow. And we're going to take it right along here, right under, see, where there's already a little bit of shading from her natural bone line. We're just going to just define that a little bit more and just kind of maybe just add a touch right there, all right? Just for right now, just leave it alone, just add that there. Now, we're going to go right under the jaw and see how it cuts down and makes an angle. That's what you're looking for; you're trying to make a chiseled face when you're highlighting and shading. So you go down and angle. See? That makes a nice, defined line there, separating the neck from the jaw. All right. You can also go back and take your blending brush. It's too heavy. Just blend it in a little bit. Okay, other side. Okay. See, once again, nice jawline. Just come down a little bit. If you're scared, you know, if you don't want to get too heavy with it, just kind of pat it on there for right now and you can just kinda brush back up. Very nice. All right, once again, make your angle and blend down the neck 'cause you don't want that nasty line there, all right? Now face forward. Now, see what we have done with the shading and how her face is now beautifully chiseled."
