Hello, hello! I've been asked to write about how to create cheekbones. Let's admit it, we all don't have some that show. This is just a quick post, showing how to create a contoured cheek so your face looks leaner, skinnier, and beautiful especially in the summer! In this particular post, I've used NARS Bronzer in Laguna to contour my cheeks.
All you need is a larger brush, such as a blush brush, and a bronzer. Try using something that is near your skin tone. It should be just a few shades darker than your natural self. Also make sure, the bronzer isn't too gold or shimmery. This takes away from the effect of the contouring, making it look more fake, or too much! I'm not a big fan of glitter on the cheeks, so the NARS bronzer is perfect for me. My look prior to using bronzer is below:
As you can see, I've done the rest of my beauty regiment for today. My cheeks have only a bit of foundation on them. Other than that, they're pretty plain jane. Steps in applying bronzer for contouring:
1) Gently, press your brush into the bronzer. You don't want to get too much, so just tap any excess powder against your arm.
2) Apply the bronzer, in a line, moving from the bottom/middle ear towards the corner of your lips.
3) I would say put more on if you're going out at night, as it's more difficult to see. Take it easy in the daytime. You will still have contoured cheeks with less than more. It just looks more natural.
After applying bronzer, you can see the definition in my cheek:
See that definition. Even with this picture you can see that- wow Jasmine has a bit of cheek bone. My overall look is below:
My look is very subtle, but like I said, if you're planning to go out, I'd say add some more! Darken those areas and enhance your cheekbones. Let's fake it and make some cheekbones! Good luck!
