Why it's Cult
Please be aware that the {Anastasia Beverly Hills ( https://www.cultbeauty.co.uk/anastasia-beverly-hills )} 'Medium'
Contour Cream Kit has now changed in response to customer
feedback. The shade 'Nude' has now been replaced with 'Ash
Brown'.
Available in two shades, these palettes of six contouring creams
have been causing a cyber-space frenzy – with buttery,
beautifully buildable textures, these are perfect for sculpting
your favourites features; exaggerating shadows and highlighting
‘high points’, to effortlessly cheat your way to Kate Moss-worthy
cheeks (we can hear the supermodels quaking). Choose between
'Light' and 'Medium', then experiment with how best to cleverly
contour your visage – with a little bit of artful make up
application, you can easily create the illusion of a smaller
forehead, slimmer nose or softer jawline.

Description
All four shades of Anastasia Beverly Hills'
Pro Series Contour Cream Kit contain six sheer-yet-pigmented
sculpting and highlighting creams, to enhance (or detract from)
your features and grant a more ‘3D’ effect. Wonderfully dewy,
these subtle skin-enhancers can be worn alone, or beneath
Anastasia’s corresponding contour powders, to ‘set’ and intensify
the effect (ideal after dark, in a candlelight setting). For
contouring newbies, the premise is to create depth by ‘colouring
in’ shadows, then brightening the ‘high points’ of your face
where light would naturally strike – cheeks, chin, forehead and
bridge of the nose. Celebrities rely heavily on contouring to
help them look younger, leaner and more ‘cheek-d’ in
photographs (even when being bleached by a blanket of camera
flashes); just look at J-Lo, Angelina, J-Law and Kim-K to see
what a difference just a little bit of artful contour application
can achieve – defining, streamlining and creating the illusion of
perfect symmetry. Get practising beauties, this is one craze
that’s certainly here to stay…

How to use
For a step-by-step diagram, click {here ( https://wp.me/p4r9OR-5NB/ )} 1. Drag a line of contour 2-3 shades
darker than your skin tone at an angle from top of the ear to
corner of the mouth (going lighter as it reaches the mouth area
so the contour line can disappear before hitting the laugh line).
This step chisels the hollows of the cheeks. 2. Contour the
temples and top of the forehead (along hairline) to minimise a
large forehead and create a '3D' effect. 3. Apply the same powder
along the jawline under the ear and connecting the the chin, to
chisel the jaw. 4. Blend the jaw contour down to the neck to
avoid a harsh line. 5. Starting at the inner corner of the
eyebrow, use a narrow brush and drag a contour line down the
bridge of the nose. Do the same on the other side of the nose so
you have two parallel lines running down the bridge of the nose.
6. Apply contour on the bottom of the nose to connect the two
parallel lines and to make the nose appear shorter if you have a
long nose. 7. Highlight the cupid's bow above centre of lip to
create a pout, and highlight centre area of chin to balance the
face. 8. Highlight under eyes, across top of cheeks, and down
toward apple of cheeks to brighten under eyes and make the
cheeks appear raised. 9. Highlight the laugh line area (from
beside the nostril down to corner of the mouth) to make them
appear less deep of shadowy. 10. Use what's left on the brush to
clean up under the cheek contour and sharpen. 11. Highlight
between brows to centre of forehead, and fan toward the arch of
the brows to make the brows appear bolder and clean. 12. Use a
shimmery highlight to dust lightly all over the previously
highlighted areas for a pop of shine. 13. Remember, do not add
shimmer to laugh lines, s, or areas within extremely
visible pores of bumps.
