Makeup Tips: How to Contour Your Face in 3 Steps

 


We may not all be blessed with bone structure like Joan Smalls, but that doesn't mean we can't fake it with a little bronzer. Here, CK One Color global makeup artist Kayleen McAdams shows us how to get chiseled cheekbones in three simple steps.




  
STEP ONE: Use an angled brush to apply a matte bronzer into the hollows of your cheeks. Make a fish face to get the right positioning and locate the area you should fill in. Swipe the bronzer in the sucked in area underneath your cheekbones from just above the outer corner of your mouth to the very top of your ear and into the hairline so you can't see the point where the contour begins. Make sure not to go above this point higher into your face, to ensure you avoid the apple of your cheek completely. 



 
STEP TWO: Use the same brush and apply the bronzer to the outer corner of your forehead and along your jaw line to emphasize (or fake) a chiseled bone structure.


 
STEP THREE: Use your fingers to apply a cream highlighter  to the very top of your cheekbone and up around the edge of your eye. Use a tapping motion to press the product into the skin. This highlights the highest point of your cheekbone and further emphasizes your bone structure.

Motivational Monday: Live your dreams

Image
Good evening my JAB peeps, its that day of the week where I share some inspiring words to keep our head high even through the turbulent waters. Today we would be talking about Living our dreams and the prime obstacle to that is FEAR. You can either live your dreams or live your fear. I think that many people are not living their dreams. But are living their fears. So I want to ask you a question. Why are you living in fear? What are you afraid? We all have fears, we all have something that is blocking, or holding us back. And as we begin to realize that, you see that most people are not living their true potentials. They are not doing all the thing they want to do. Its all because of fear. Some people call fear (False evidence or expectations appearing as real). Make a decision today that you are going to box and bury your fears. Decide that you going to live life on a new level. Seeking out new horizons. That you are going to find more love, more joy and more ways to give b
