The Best Contouring Face Makeup - Buy Online!
Playing with light and shadow on your face has never been easier with our exclusive products for contouring . This technique is used to redefine the contours and volumes of your face using light and shade, giving that three-dimensionality that was missing. There are two types of contouring : the first, lighter and more delicate , which helps improve the features of the face without distorting it, the second more drastic , which can sometimes completely change the appearance of your face.
What tricks are used for contouring?
Face contouring is a makeup technique used to emphasize and shape facial features. It is one of the most popular makeup trends. Here are some tips on makeup to use for contouring:
1. Choose a foundation that is darker than your natural color. Apply this with a sponge and then blend well on the sides of the face to create the desired shape.
2. Use a lighter highlighter on the upper cheeks, cheekbones, brow bone, and forehead. This will create a more natural look.
3. Use an eyeshadow product that has a golden brown or champagne color, or even bronze to emphasize facial features, such as the chin, jawline, and temples.
4. Also add a little blush on your cheeks to give your face more dimension and harmony and make it look fresher.
5. Finally, apply a neutral-colored eyeshadow all over the area around the eyes to add depth to the look and make the eye contour more defined.
How to contour your neck?
Neck contouring is an effective way to create a slimmer, more defined look. Follow these steps to get your perfect contour:
1. Before you begin, make sure you have a good makeup base , such as a moisturizer or foundation. You can also apply a primer before your makeup to ensure it lasts longer.
2. Using a contour brush , take some highlighter and outline the neckline from the top of the collarbone to the ear.
3. Create a line with the dark eyeshadow (you can use a dark brown or black) along the guide lines you created with the highlighter. This line should be barely visible when you look in the mirror.
4. Using the same contour brush, gently blend both the light and dark shades to create a graduated effect between the two shades .
5. Finally, use the same highlighter you used on the upper neck to line the lower neck and blend it well with a soft brush so as not to leave obvious marks.
With these simple moves you can easily create a contouring look on your neck!

What brushes do you use for contouring?
To create a perfect face contouring, it is important to select the right brushes. The choice of brushes you will use will depend on the amount of product you want to apply. For a lighter contouring, for example, soft and small brushes such as blush or kabuki brushes are recommended.
If you want a more intense and defined effect, you can use fan-shaped brushes or blenders with natural or synthetic bristles. To best sculpt your face, it is also important to choose the right brush to apply highlighting powders and shading powders.
Flat top brushes are ideal for applying all types of products: from foundation to powders. In addition, to create a softer effect, it is useful to have a brush with a rounded tip, while to better highlight the light points of the face, flat brushes with short bristles are necessary.
Finally, even if there is no general rule regarding the choice of brushes to use for face contouring, using the right tools will give you much better results!
What products should I use for contouring?
Face contouring: which products to use?
When contouring your face, it's important to use the right products to achieve a professional and natural look. The first product to consider is the darkest and lightest foundations . For shading, look for a foundation with brown and reddish pigments that match your skin tone, so that it creates an effect of depth and dimension to your face. Apply a little under the cheekbones on your cheeks , in the jawline, on the bridge of your nose, and to the left and right of your forehead.
To highlight, look for a foundation with light pigments to illuminate certain areas of the face such as the chin , brow bone, upper cheekbones, and the center of the nose. You can also use it to lightly fill in dark circles or to mask any imperfections.
Another essential product for contouring your face is bronzers. Use them to further darken certain areas such as the bridge of your nose, the contours of your jawline, and the area under your jaw, thus creating more definition. Bronzers should be applied with a fairly large blending brush in order to give a soft and even result.
Finally, if you want your contouring to last a long time without losing intensity during the day, you can use a translucent matte powder all over your face before applying the previously mentioned products. This will set your makeup without adding any extra heaviness to your makeup.
