Contouring Cheekbones with Powder

Video Transcript

"I'm now going to give Sherry a light facial contour to give her a little bit more shape in her face. Okay, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to start right underneath Sherry's cheekbone and when you're contouring, you really don't want to use a lot of product. But another great way to find out where to do it is sort of right at her hairline, here, and you can actually see where it goes down so it already sort of gives you this guide. So, I'm going to take this color, starting from her hairline and just very lightly start to sweep it in and you can see a little bit of color that's showing. And you can either sort of pull it up, or in these really soft circular motions. And like I said, with facial contours, it's really important just to go very light and you can go in and kind of build from there. But you may not see a ton right now, but from different lighting, it gives these really beautiful shades to her skin. Another great place to contour, if you're wanting to make your nose look a little thinner, so on and so forth, you can use a brush and right on the sides of the nose, blend it right in there and then you can also use a highlight right on the bridge of the nose. That will help to bring that out as well. And it's just these really subtle differences that, like I said, in different lighting, makes a huge impact on the face. So, this is something that you may not want to do for everyday, but if you're going out, or if you know, you're really into shaping your face, this is a really great thing to do."
