Our fantastic WHO makeup artist Amelia Singson is back with another nifty beauty hack, which we promise is lifechanging.
Every week we’ll present you with a celebrity solver! How does Kendall Jenner hide her breakouts? Leave it to us! Gal Gadot’s dark circles? We can help fix those too.
This week, we’re focussing on What Kim Kardashian made so famous – CONTOURING!!!
WATCH: WHO makeup artist Amelia Singson demonstrates how to contour like a pro, aka, like Kim K!
“Thanks to Kim K, countouring is a huuuuge part of the makeup industry now. To get Kim’s cheekbones, you’ve got to contour like a pro,” Amelia explains.
Step One: Foundation.
A full coverage foundation on a brush, worked into the skin. Blend down onto the neck is important!
Step Two: Concealer.
Concealer under the eyes in an upside down triangle. Highlighting the centre of the face brings your features forward.
“It’s all about creating that light and shade on the face.”
Step Three: Contouring.
“Using a cream contour stick that is an ashy toned colour – not warm.
After doing the cheeks, put the same contouring stick on the forehead and jaw.
Step Four: Baking.
Pop the powder on and let it sit on the skin for a few minutes. After a few minutes, use a big fluffy brush, wipe the excess powder off and work it into the skin.
Step Five: Contouring Powder.
Using the blush brush this will soften the look of the setting powder.
Step Six: Blush.
This will bring a little bit of life back into the skin after the process of contouring.
So easy!
