I don't understand how to contour my face? Like how's it done and what things would I need??

You'll need:
contouring brushes
bronzer/foundation a shade or two darker than you face

You need a gray-ish based powder color, an angled brush, a blending face brush, and a smaller brush for more detailed areas. There are many pictures on how to contour but I'll try to explain it as best I can. Using the angled brush, use your powder to make a line under your cheekbones, on your temples, and on your jawline. Use the smaller brush to (optionally) contour your nose. Anything contoured will appear smaller and appear to pop out more. Anything highlighted will appear larger. Hope I helped! 💕😊

Bronzer shouldn't be used for contouring as shadows aren't orange or muddy brown, they're grey. A good cheap alternative to a contouring powder would be NYX eyeshadow in Taupe.

When contouring the cheek bones I learned to start at the base of your ear and end at an angle to where the arch of your eyebrow is.
