But since there are different face shapes, you should also use different techniques for contouring. Here are the best make-up tips for all facial contours:
1. Contouring for a square face: Here we want to avoid the square face looking hard and severe. Therefore, the goal is to make the facial features rounder and softer. This works by placing the dark colors in a curve on the face areas forehead, right and left under the jawbone and on the cheeks and blending them well with the brush. The light highlights come on the forehead, chin and under the eyes.2. Contouring a round face: A round face appears narrower with the right contouring and blending. To do this, the facial features are traced from temple to chin with the dark contour powder. In addition, the cheekbones are defined by forming a kissable mouth and drawing a dark line from the ear to the corner of the mouth. The bridge of the nose and the upper cheeks are brought into focus with highlighting.3. Contouring for an oval face: The motto here is: Less is more! The shades and the contour are subtly set and blended below the cheekbones, a little at the base of the forehead and below the chin. But you can be more generous with the highlighting with the light tones and place them with the brush on the face parts of the forehead and under the eyes. Also put some highlighter on the chin and on the gap between the mouth and nose.4. Contouring a heart-shaped face: A heart-shaped face is characterized by a relatively broad forehead and a pointed chin. Here, the temples are emphasized darkly in the contouring to balance the shape. Shading from ear to mouth also accentuates cheekbones.
