"In this clip, I'm going to show you how to contour the cheek using a cream. I chose a shade that's about two shades lighter than her natural skin color, and I'm just going to apply that right to the top of her cheekbone. Now I'm going to use a shade that's about two shades darker, and I'm going to go right in the bottom of her cheekbone, in the hollow, so if you put your finger on top of the cheekbone, you can feel where it starts to go down, that's where you want to apply the darker color. And I'm just using a tiny bit and blending it out in circles. And you can use your finger and just kind of blend it in. Make sure you blend it all the way back to the ears so you don't have that floating ear look. And then take your pinkie finger and blend out that highlight color. And you want to just make sure that you don't have any harsh edges and really blend it together. I chose a shade that's two shades darker than her natural skin because it's going to bring a lot of depth to that area without being overdone. You want to make sure that its, it's in the same, the same family of, of colors, but not like not a super, super dark brown that's not going to blend. And that's how you contour the cheek using a cream."
