A lot of people get confused when they hear highlighting and contouring, I used to be so I know. Well here are the difference and how you can achieve it. The truth is most celebs you thinks are flawless uses this trick. So I think it is time you start too.
Highlighting is when you use a lighter shade on the higher planes of the face such as the cheekbones, brow bones, nose, chin, cupid’s bow of the lips, under the eyes, and inside the tear ducts. The idea is to mimic the effect of light on the face.
While Contouring is using a darker color to hollow or recede. Like making a wide nose pointy by shading either side, starting from below the bridge and ending above the nostrils, and contouring under the jawbone to define the jawline and slim the neck.
There are lots of videos on highlighting and contouring which I will be bringing so you know the right shade for your skin colour. But for today let take a look at how Jennie Jenkins highlights and contour. I learned most of the things I know about makeup from her.
