Do you know the difference between contouring and bronzing? Here’s some tips to learn the difference. Don’t forget to check out the video that demonstrates the difference.
Both can work for mature skin if you know the Do’s and Don’ts:
DO:
- Select the right tone, cooler for contouring and warmer for bronzing
- Apply bronzer by gently sweeping across your face anywhere the sun would hit…cheeks, hairline, bridge of nose
- Apply contour starting at temple (rather than ear) to create a lifted cheekbone.
DON’T:
- Bring contour too far down your cheek
- Apply bronzer to the middle of your forehead … sun hits high points on your face not flat points
- Be afraid to apply both contour and bronzer at the same time
I use contouring alone to create a more elegant look and bronzer alone for a more casual look. But don’t be afraid to use both at the same time.
