Fabulous Tip of the Day: Buff When Contouring

Today's Fab Tip:

Contouring can be hard. You don't want it to look like you've drawn a line on your cheeks. The important thing is to blend.

"To make sure your contour looks flawless, I recommend using a clean powder brush with a little transparent loose powder to buff the edges out."

Doing so will help your contouring look natural. For me, contouring is a must to make my cheeks less fat-looking and my face less rectangular-looking, but contouring is mainly used to give your face dimension. You don't want your face looking flat, after all.

Contour away.
