APPLICATION
Start your contour by taking your flat angle brush
and tapping it on the contour shade of your choice.
The darker your skin the darker you will want to go.
Take the brush and place it right where the top of
your ear attaches to the side of your face. Drag the
brush down along the bottom edge of your cheek
bone until it hits about midway to 3/4 of the way
down. If you’re not quite sure where that would be,
use your fingers to feel where the bottom of your
cheekbone really is. Repeat on the other side.
Next take the bottom (smaller end) of your Heavenly Luxe brush (this can be done with an eyeshadow brush as well), apply contour to the brush,
and apply that to the side of your nose, avoiding
the bridge and where your nose attaches to your
face.
Take the larger end of the Heavenly Luxe Brush (or
other medium stiffness complexion brush) and
apply the contour to temples and forehead (in my
case this is to create more of a forehead instead of
a fivehead.) To do this, take the brush and sweep
back and forth (think windshield wiper) along the
outer edge of your forehead, along the hairline.
NOW WE BLEND
Take your beauty blender sponge and make “tap
tap” motion along every contour line you created
to blur any harsh lines. Now take your Heavenly
Luxe brush and brush it against your wrist or towel
to clean out any excess. This next step is crucial
to a Kardashian like contour: Once clean, swirl
your brush along the contour lines in small circular
motions, going slightly outside the line you created.
This makes it appear more natural, blended, and
soft, yet still giving you the contoured effect.
Some women also want to contour their jawline,
chin, or neck. If so, just use the same application
process and you are golden.
