Any tips on contouring pale skin? I find that even when I blend , it looks like I have dirt on my face.

Use a darker bronzer instead of a dark blunt color

You just have to make sure you pick the right shade and blend properly. I'm paler then pale and if I don't contour I feel like my face looks too plain. I just Marcelles bronzer and its light enough that I don't look like an idiot.

I personally don't prefer a bronzer. To contour my face with Mac Harmony Blush, and highlight with Mac Trace Gold blush. You can pretty much contour your face any way you like, foundation powder or bronzing if you would like. I just recommend to get a shade that's at least two shades darker than your color.

I am nw15 and to contour I use mac bronzing powder in matte bronze. It is a buildable bronzer which I love allowing it to be sheer if needed.

I'm insanely pale. It's hard for me to even find a foundation that matches without me using a white mixing agent. My favorite bronzer for contouring is pixi bronze bloom trip. Lasts me forever and looks beautiful on pale skin.

Nyx blush in taupe is super cheap & works well!

For all skin tones the best way to achieve a natural contour is by using a powder foundation a few shades darker than your skin. Avoid any shimmery products as a contour because it will only reflect light.

I would contour with a medium tan shade thats more on the warm side...I use sigmas small contour brush... or a light tan.highlighting powder works nice too... I love using maymttes but.pearly finished tend to blend easier and are easier to work with... don't do the fish cheek to contour either lol... or put a bronzer on cheek bones bridge of.nose temples and chin and take a lighter powder or highlighter.right beneath your cheek bone... it will make your cheekbones more sculpted and is ridiculously easy.
