1. Find your cheekbones: Try sucking in your cheeks to figure out your contour placement. Or imagine a line going from the top of your ear to the corner of your mouth. You can also feel with your fingers to see where your cheekbone is.
2. Pick your tools: To mimic natural shadows, opt for a neutral or cool-toned brown cream contour. Go a shade or two darker than your skin tone. Try Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Cream Kit, $40, Sephora.
3. Brush and blend: Using a dense, angled brush, begin by drawing a line from the top of the ear toward the mouth, stopping about an inch away from the mouth. Blend in well using a damp beauty sponge. A little goes a long way here!
4. Set in place: To set the cream product in place, apply a bronzer using an angled brush.
5. Accentuate: To make the contour pop, apply highlighter to the tops of your cheek bones.
