Can you use a concealer darker than your skin tone to contour?

If you want, but it wouldn't work as well.

You can achieve great results, if you blend very well to avoid an unnatural appearance. Blend, blend, blend!

I hear some people use it and have no problems as long as you pick a good concealer. you can also use a foundation 2 shades darker than you. I seen a few drag queen videos that use that technique. checkout sillyconmua.

Don't overdue it but it might work there's always the factor you can wash it off it doesn't work.

You can but make sure you blend it in well...I use the Black Radiance Concealer Stick to contour sometimes! I think powder is easier to contour with but you can get the same result with either!

You certainly can. I use powders to contour but have started using light and white cream concealers from my concealer palette to highlight and will probably play around with the darker concealer shades to contour, at some point.

The loreal true match crayon concealors work well for contouring :)
