  • Hey hey my dudes. I wanted to revisit contouring for all the different face shapes out there. I'm trying to simplify it as much as possible, but I DO think these tips should work for every face shape whether you have a wide face, narrow face, long chin, large forehead, etc. Remember to start with the overall shape and then refine by section đŸ™ŒđŸ» Let me know if there are any more specifics you want me to cover ❀
    01:06 For narrow or long faces
    03:50 For wide (round or square) faces
    07:16 How to look more heart shaped
    10:05 Side by side comparisons

    Cool thing I've discovered, I wear a headscarf for religious reasons, and the placement of the scarf along my forehead and the sides of my face can sort of contour my face a bit, shortening my forehead and making nice angles along my cheeks and my jaw. If you wear hats or headscarves highly recommend experimenting with that

    @ninav3454 Pƙed rokem +6

    this is pure gold content, thank you! So many tutorials just say Heart shape do this, oval shape do that! And for a long time i wondered why nothing works for me. That’s the answer - your face shape is unique and you will rarely find a face that fits exactly into those schemes you see on the internet. Also, your face changes shape ever so slightly as you grow older and/our gain or lose weight too. So always gotta adjust your routine. This video is very helpful for that. ❀

    Would you ever do a video on how to use contouring to accentuate your features? For example, I have wide cheekbones and I don't want to make them look narrow, just a more enhanced version of what they are. All the contouring content I have found is about downplaying your prominent features

    Someone once commented on the 'brown haze' on the side of my face. I haven't contoured since then, and I'm dead sure I put on a very little amount that day. I have a wide face shape and should contour the sides, but I'm afraid other people will notice like last time :(

      Try using a cooler toned contour and use your fingers to blend. I know brushes and beauty sponges are most fashionable now, but your fingers give you the most control and can make the blend look more natural

    • @momoratime2956
      @momoratime2956 Pƙed rokem +12

      the tips in the other replies are good, and also you can play around with having contour beneath your foundation, but also: i personally only do contour when it's either night time or i have a really photo-heavy event! it's true that trying to make contour look super seamless in daylight can be tricky. evening makeup is a lot more forgiving.

      @KeilaBevins Pƙed rokem +2

      Have you tried putting the foundation over the contour? I think I saw a video that said to do it like that. I think maybe the foundation blends the contour to make it look more natural or something. Idk if I remember correctly.

    I don’t know if you’re accepting video suggestions, but if so, I need a ten-minutes-tops workday makeup routine that helps me look my best without sacrificing professionalism (or sleep!). And if you want a bonus challenge, preferably with drugstore products that won’t require a bunch of touch ups through the day!
