How To Contour (The Smashbox Way)

Contouring is the buzzword of the year (OK, and last year too), but not a day goes by without us being alerted to the transformative powers of contouring.

But let's get real, who can be bothered to stripe their face into oblivion on the quest for Kim K Kontouring? We can’t, which is why we’re currently obsessed with these new easy to use, super effective contouring products from our BFF’s over at Smashbox.

Whilst we love the Step-By-Step Contour Kit which is made up of three blendable contouring powders, the Step-By-By-Step Contour Stick Trio seamlessly, and precisely, blends into the skin and are so easy to manipulate, which is perfect for the tentative contour-er as you really can’t go wrong. Start light, and build and build until you’re happy with the results. Perfect for the hollow of your cheeks, jaw line and temples, to sculpt and give depth to your visage. Oh yeah, and whatever product you opt for, each come with how-to contour guides for your face shape!

Here’s Smashbox Global Pro Lead Makeup Artist, Lori Taylor to show us all how it’s done...
