Catwalk Contour

Catwalk Contour - 


In todays lesson we were taught how to contour the face and where to create shadows and highlights on the face.


1) Blush: Colour and texture (liquid, cream or powder) different tones and additional shimmer bricks. 
2) Highlighting: Powders, liquids, creams or using a lighter concealer.
Cheekbones/lips/eyes/nose/brow bone/inner eye - contouring naturally - light pushes forward, ass to where the natural light hits the face. Not too much but just enough to enhance and bring out the natural shades. 
3) Bronzers: Creams and or powders
4) Mixing products: To get your desired look and to get the product wanted e.g. dabbing lipgloss or mixing eyeliner or powder to a moisturiser to create a cream contour or bronzer.
5) Powders: Use a translucent for a real matt effect. To create a dewy look, finish areas of the face with light dusting, the face should already be highlighted. Assess the end and compliment the finish. 
6) Look closely at the different elements of shine and glow and creating different looks with different powders. 

My contour done on my classmate Maddy









As you can see from the photographs above i have highlighted all areas of face which bring a natural glow.I have put highlighter above the cheek bone, above the brow and down the spine of the nose. For a darker contour i have used bronzer on the cheek bones, top of the forehead and each side of the nose to make the nose appear to be slimmer and longer. I found finding a image to help guide me was very useful so i could understand what shades go where to help bring the desired look i wanted.
