Contouring involves using a shade darker than your skin tone to sculpt areas and give the impression of definition. You can use it for just about anything to create cheekbones, collar bones – even to fake a fuller cleavage, but most people are intimidated by the ‘skill’ they think is involved and the shade! Contouring is actually really easy, it can work to give you a bronzed look and stop you looking washed out on a particularly dreary morning, and it doesn’t take too long either once you’ve mastered the technique.
