Natural Skin!

Do you love to contour but don't love that harsh Kim K. look? I've got a solution for you that will be perfect for the new year! 

Get ready to switch up your look and try something a bit more natural.

First thing first, put on your foundation and concealer. Just do your normal foundation rutine. You can use a tinted moisturize, a BB cream, or a powder foundation. All will work. You want to look like this is your skin. Depending on how much makeup you usually wear, choose a foundation that is right for you.
Once you've put on your foundation it's time for some sneaky contouring. I added just a little bit of powder contour on my temples, the base of my cheek bone and right under my jaw line. Just place the product at this point.                                                                                                     You can use any type of contour product for this. Cream, powder, foundation, or concealer will all work for this. The important part is that the product is a shade or two darker then your natural skin tone.

Blush is more important then contour and highlighting combined. If you wear foundation you probably need blush.


When you've got your product placed simply blend out. You want to use a clean brush for the blending and blend in the direction the contour should lay. For example I'll blend the contour on my cheek toward the center of my face along the bottom of the cheek bone.


After applying the contour just add blush and highlight if you want. They just finish up your normal makeup routine and appreciate how effortless your skin looks today!
