For all of those Mommas who have contouring issues…here’s my new found trick.

Look at your baby…when they give you those huge grins, you can naturally see the contour in their faces, whether they have cute lil dimples or chubby cheeks, those cheeks bones pop out like no other.

So check it,

Smile in the mirror…towards your nose/under eye area, your cheeks tend to form a circular formation…aka the apples of cheeks. Under that area, use maybe a paper, anything that can form a straight edge across your cheek. Now, start applying bronzer from the outer part of the cheek (towards the hair line) and from the straight edge.

You’re going to notice a darker line, may look dramatic…don’t fret. Just, blend upwards.

With your fave blush, apply from the area by the hair line towards your nose. Don’t get too close, maybe leave about 2 fingers space between the area with blush and your nose.

And blend.

Hope that helps. I had issues with it before, but I think baby faces are good tools for finding where your face should naturally have that rosie glow compared to the over the top contour.
