hey guys tina here welcome back to my
channel today's video is a very highly
requested video by you guys i asked you
guys in my new year's eve makeup
tutorial if anyone wanted to see a
contouring tutorial and a lot of you
guys commented and said yes so thank you
for those who left comments so here it
is today if you guys are new to
contouring or i haven't quite mastered
it yet keep watching and i'm going to
share with you some tips and tricks
[Music]
i've already moisturized my skin so i'm
going to go ahead and apply my
foundation today i'll be using the
l'oreal true match super blendable
foundation in golden natural and i'll be
applying it on with my beauty blender
[Music]
after that i'm going to conceal and
highlight my face using my l'oreal true
match concealer in vanilla
and with highlighting and concealing i
just apply it to the areas that i want
to bring forward and this is going to
help create that nice natural glow
so i always do under my eyes and i sort
of do like a triangle
like so
and same with the other side
i also have some redness under my nose
so i'm gonna conceal there
also i like to bring my chin forward a
little bit and
just apply it underneath here and lastly
just on my forehead and on the
bridge of my nose
just the thin line for the nose
so i usually do it about there and do a
little dot at the end so i'm just going
to blend it into my skin and i'm just
using a tapping motion because i don't
want to shift and move the concealer too
much
and can you see once it's blended out it
creates more dimension to your face so
this part is the lighter plait and then
later we're going to go in and contour
so that's going to recede and sculpt the
face
cool so now that i'm done with that i'm
going to move on to contouring today
i'll be using drugstore products because
a lot of you guys have requested that i
use more affordable products but i'll
also be pointing out the high-end more
expensive product that you can use as
well so today i'll be using the
maybelline fit me foundation this one is
a stick one and the color is toffee
caramel so this is an actual foundation
because i couldn't find any cream
contouring products but it's just gonna
work the same and it's pretty affordable
now if you want a high end product i
recommend the stila shape and shade
custom contour duo i like to use the
color medium with contouring it all
depends on your face shape and which
areas you want to pull back and reseed
so if there's a certain part of your
face that you don't like say your nose
is you think it's too big and you want
to slim it down you can slim the sides
down and same goes for your forehead for
your jawline but basically the ideal
face shape is the oval face shape so if
you just draw an imaginary oval on your
face
like so anything outside that oval you
can pretty much contour if you're going
for the ideal face shape otherwise you
can just customize it to your own face
and hide the areas that you don't like
or bring out the areas that you do with
highlighting so each person is going to
be very different today i'm going to
show you guys on my face shape and what
i would do to sort of define and sculpt
my face it could be different with your
face though so keep that in mind i
always like to start contouring
underneath my cheekbone now everyone's
face is different and a lot of people
like to do the fish sucking face like so
and they find where their cheekbone is
and just place it into the hollows where
that gap is and you usually just contour
there
another trick that i like to do and i
find that it's easier because when i do
it on clients sometimes getting them to
do the fish sucking phase isn't isn't
the best i'm going to start at the top
of my ear and visualize a line coming
down to the corner of my mouth so that's
the line that i want to contour but i'm
going to stop where my pupil is so then
i don't look too sucked in so i'm going
to do that now
[Music]
so i've just stopped where my eye line
is and this could be a little bit
thicker if you want a really contoured
look but basically the thickest part
should be towards the ear and the
thinnest part should be near the mouth
so it should sort of taper
[Music]
cool so keep in mind that if you go too
high or too low you can look out of
proportion so just make sure you
remember that tip of the ear to mouth
line
so i'm going to do the same with the
other side
next i'm going to move on to my forehead
now i always like to sort of
contour around the perimeters
so
this part doesn't have to be very neat
because i'm going to blend it but
basically i just like to do
the perimeters and also shade in the
sides a little bit just to make my
forehead look a bit smaller
cool i look sort of crazy but that's the
look i'm going for now i'm going to move
on to my jawline and what i like to do
is just follow
my jawline so i also start off in the
corner
and do the other side and just follow
along there
now if you want that really defined v
shape and make your
jawline a bit more slimmer you can also
just bring that contour up
a little bit
finally i'm going to contour my nose for
this i'm not going to use the stick
directly i'm going to grab a brush i'm
going to use my sigma large shader brush
e60 and i'm just going to
grab some of that product onto my brush
now for this you want to use a flat
synthetic brush because we're using
cream products and i'm going to draw two
lines on the sides of my nose so the
closer that i draw those lines the
slimmer my nose is going to look the
further apart the wider my nose will
look so i want my nose to look fairly
skinny so i'm going to go ahead and do
that
i usually start off at the eyebrows
and then just draw these two lines
down my nose
so a good trick if you want your nose to
look lifted is just to apply a bit of
that cream contour underneath and if you
feel like you have wider nostrils and
want to make them look a bit smaller you
can just apply a bit of that contour
on these sides
cool so i look a bit crazy but that's
the look i'm going for now it's time to
blend it all out keep in mind that when
you contour you can obviously blend as
you go so you don't have to map out your
face completely first and it depends on
the products because some products dry
quicker than others this one is still
blendable though so i'm going to go
ahead and grab my beauty blender and
just blend it all together again when
i'm blending i don't want to move and
shift the product too much so i'm just
going to use tapping motions
when you blend the contour around your
forehead make sure you just blend it up
into your hairline so there's no gaps
now when it comes to blending out the
nose i find that the beauty blender can
be a bit too
big for that area so what i like to do
is just grab another brush today i'm
using the sigma medium angled shading
brush e70 so this is a bit fluffier than
the flat brush and what i'm going to do
is just soften that line out
and use this brush to blend it so
then i get a more precise nose
contouring
and don't forget to blend the nostril
area out
[Music]
once you've blended out the contour
lines you would notice that your face
looks more sculpted and possibly even
slimmer looking so you can just go ahead
and set your base and everything on top
with a translucent powder or if you
really want to amp up the contouring a
little bit you can go in with a bit of
contour powder to set the cream areas
today i'm going to show you guys how to
do that with the maybelline master
sculpt so this one here is the medium
dark shade now it does come with a
little brush so i'm just going to dip
that into the dark areas and
just a little bit of that not too much
basically i'm just going to apply it
over the areas that i applied the
contour so that's just going to help set
it and make the makeup last longer
so once the contoured areas are set i'm
just going to apply a bit of the
highlight shade
onto the high points of my face
so i just apply it on the areas that i
conceal
[Music]
and that's pretty much it now let me
just show you the before and after so
you guys can see the difference
