I've been researching contouring and I've found a lot of information. It seems like everyone does it differently, though.

Are you supposed to use blush along with the
bronzer and highlighter?

Are you supposed to put foundation on top if all if it? Or underneath it?

I always do blush with my bronzer but you don't have to, and you only put foundation over the contour if your using is a cream contour and not a powder. if its a powder it goes over ur foundation

Make a fish face. See the line? thats where you contour, then do so on your jaw line & up the sides of your forehead. From your forehead to under your cheeks to your jaw line, like making the number 3.

yes everyone has different techniques and product you use depends on skin type etc. for example I have dry skin so I prefer a cream contour on myself to a powder. I do foundation & concealer, then I take Milan Secret Cover Concealer in Deep (4) and draw on the areas I want to recede blend with a sponge & set with powder
