STEP ONE

Always apply foundation, concealer and setting powder to a freshly cleansed and moisturized face first. (It’s important to add powder bronzer after a setting powder to help ensure seamless blending and buffing.)

STEP TWO

Using the Pro Colour Angled Cheek Brush, sweep over the bronzer, tap off any excess and lightly apply back and forth along the hollows of the cheeks, focusing most of the product to the back of your cheekbones.

STEP THREE

Dust over temples and into the hairline to help make your forehead appear smaller, while giving a sun-kissed radiance to the skin.

STEP FOUR

To define your jawline, brush along the length of the jaw and around your chin, also blending downwards in swift motions to create a flawless shadow.

STEP FIVE

To create the illusion of a slimmer, smaller nose, dip the Pro Eyeshadow Blending Brush lightly into the bronzer and apply down the sides of the nose and over the tip. (This is an old Hollywood trick!)

STEP SIX

Using the Soft Highlighting Powder Brush, dip into the highlighter, tap off any excess, and sweep along the tops of cheekbones to catch the light and bring them forward. Also apply to the inner corners of the eyes, over the browbones, down the bridge of the nose and across the Cupid’s bow to illuminate the complexion.

STEP ONE

After cleansing, moisturizing and applying foundation, choose a contour colour that complements your skin’s undertone (cool, warm or neutral) and is two shades darker than your base. Then opt for a concealer that is one shade lighter to highlight.

STEP TWO

Start with the lighter shade and apply to areas you’d like to soften, brighten and slim down. To create dimension, apply concealer under the eyes, down the bridge of the nose and to the centre of the forehead - an inch short of your hairline.

STEP THREE

To create the illusion of defined, sculpted cheekbones, move on to the darker shade. Starting at the top of your ear, draw a line down your cheekbone, stopping in-line with your pupil to avoid an overly heavy look.

STEP FOUR

Blend everything together lightly and quickly with the Seamless Foundation Buffing Brush. Start with the lighter shade using gentle tapping motions, then move on to the darker, contouring shade to bring out your features.

STEP FIVE

Wherever the light naturally hits your face – so the tops of cheekbones, browbones, the bridge of the nose and the Cupid’s Bow – blend in your chosen highlighter with your fingertips. The warmth from your fingers will help to create a seamless, radiant finish.

DON’T…

– Contour if you don’t need to – just conceal and highlight instead.

– Be too heavy-handed – less is more.

– Mix powder and cream textures together – the finish may look too overdone.
