One of the most important steps to a full face of makeup is applying contour.


Contour is an important product to reintroduce dimension back into the face after applying contour and foundation. Here’s how to apply it.


Make sure you’re using the right contour for your skin color and skin type. You’ll want to use a contour that’s a few shades darker than your skin tone.


If you have an oily skin type, use a powder contour. If you have a dry skin type, use a cream contour for a dewy finish.
