Here's my contour tips:
Start lightly and don't use too much products at first, as you can always build it up along the way. However if you prefer some serious contouring and sculpting then you might need to apply more products but since I prefer a subtle natural finish this light application can already do a huge magic in sculpting my face.

For my nose contour I would usually outline and then blend off the cream contour, starting from my nose arch to the tip. The secret is to blend it off perfectly to make it look seamless and natural. As for my cheeks I usually only contour on my cheekbones to make it look more define and add more dimension to my face. There are times where I would go down to contour my chin to give it a smaller face illusion but it something I rarely do with cream contour. For that I usually prefer to use powder contour to give a nice seamless shadow.
What I like about this Chisel Cheeks Contour cream and highlighter are that they're so creamy in texture that they are so blend-able making a very natural seamless contour result which is something that I like cause I prefer a natural makeup finish instead of a bold look.
They have two options for their contour kit which is for 'light to medium skin tone' and 'medium to dark skin tone'. Barry M Chisel Cheeks Contour Kit is the perfect product you need to carry with you when you travel because it is so compact and travel size friendly. The palette consist of highlight, a bronzer to warm, and a dark powder to sculpt for a perfectly enhanced feature. This contour kit will be able to help you shape and define your natural bone structure thus enhances your face dimension.
Use the medium shade for my nose contour, it really helps to create my higher nose illusion :) Love that the color can easily and naturally blend into my skin tone giving it a very subtle look. |
For my cheeks, I really like to pick an angled brush to blend off the contour, to make it look more natural. |
Verdict
Overall, these contour kit and cream have changed my whole perspective on difficult and hard to blend contour products that makes makeup look heavy and unnatural. Both these products are very easy to use and very easy to blend as well resulting in very natural finish but with better contours. Contours and highlights are indeed a very important step in makeup to make the look drastically different. Even though this step might usually be forgone but every time I decided to contour I always ended up feeling so happy with my makeup look cause contouring really help to make the illusion of face dimension I want to create while the highlight enhance my features. So are you usually the contour and highlight team? If yes, then these products from Barry M Cosmetics Chisel Cheeks are something you don't want to miss out.
