Draw a line from the base of the cheek outwards, just below the outer corner of the eye. Then blend the highlighter placement and the light particles it contains. This will instantly make you stand out.

2. Sharpen the jaw

To make the jaw sharper, you can use shimmer to make it look glowing. The trick, start from behind the ear and blend the formula with a contour brush along the jaw to the tip of the chin. Repeat blending on the opposite side. Also make sure to blend under the chin and neck to avoid demarcation lines.

So, take an eyebrow pencil and apply it on both sides of the middle of the nose. To create the illusion of a slimmer nose, take a foundation one shade darker than your skin. Then blend until the tip of the nose evenly.

4. Make the face look slimmer

Contouring tricks can help you when you are sleep deprived. When you wake up your face looks more puffy, use a foundation one or two shades darker than your skin color which helps 'slimming' the face. The technique, can be started with facial gestures sucking the cheek or making a fish face. In this way, the hollows of the cheeks will stand out.

Next, take the foundation and apply it using a contour brush right on the wrinkled cheeks or on the hollows of your cheeks. Make shadows with perfect blending so that the cheekbones look more defined.

5. Contouring to make the collarbone more prominent

Wearing a sexy top or dress, protruding clavicle bones make the appearance more attractive. The trick, take a shimmer highlighter powder and apply it right on the top of your collarbone. Blend it with champagne eyeshadow and the collarbone will stand out even more.
