Hope you all had a great weekend! The tip for today has to do with contouring.
When you want subtle definition, it is completely fine to use a bronzer. A bronzer and a large fluffy brush can enhance your cheekbones and give you a nice glow. Just make sure the bronzer is completely matte.
However, if you want to do a stronger contour, it may look more natural to use a taupe eyeshadow or blush with grey undertones instead of a bronzer with red or orange undertones- I am a huge fan of NYX blush in Taupe. Shadows are gray, not orange, so if you are trying to replicate a shadow, why would you use an orange or a brown powder...right?
Instead of a big fluffy brush, for an intense contour use a smaller brush, I love using the Real Techniques Setting Brush.
Hope this was helpful!! XO
