How we experience different shapes are defined by lights and shadows. A flat or protruding surface reflects light and becomes more visible, while surfaces in the shadow are perceived as darker and less prominent. By using bright and dark makeup shades, you can sculpture your face as you wish. This technique is called contouring.
Contouring
Cover Stick Nearly Brown, Bronzer Sunset och Compact Cover Cover Stick Nearly Brown, Bronzer Sunset and Compact Cover Deep Tan are a selection of the many products that can create shadows. Apply a line just below the cheekbones, along the jaw line, at the temples and on the top part of your forehead. You can also apply shadows along the sides of the nose, to make it appear narrower and more defined.
Highlighting
Använd Cover Stick Nearly Beige, Compact Cover Cream eller Compact Cover Light på de partier du önskar framhäva. Applicera gärna på kindbenen, på hakan, under ögonen och från pannans mitt, ner längs näsbenet ända till nästippen. Tillför gärna lite skimmer och lyster med en Highlighter.
Blush
