Sorry every one but life is a B (If you know what I mean). But back to normal scheduled programming. Contour! What does that mean in the makeup artist world?! In my definition, it is to hide imperfections we choose to not allow others to see or to be aware of. For example, if you one of those cursed with a wide nose, instead of going through the scary process of getting plastic surgery, one is able to hide the wideness how? By simply contouring the hell out of that wide nose. Next session, we will be talking about the proper ways to highlight the face in order to bring to the forefront your best features. Please review the diagrams to get a better view of the proper ways of contouring your face in order to create a prefect canvas that suits your needs:
Cheeks: As you can see, I placed the contour for the cheek bones higher then the hollow of the cheek bones. The reason I do this you ask?! I have noticed when one places the contour on the actual hollows of the cheek bones, the face looks weighed down and older. We are all trying to bet gravaity. I especially use this trick for older women because it uplifts the face and gives the face a fresher look.
Mouth: To make the lips look fuller, contour underneath the lips.
