How To Contour Every Different Kind of Face Shape


One of the toughest tricks to master when it comes to makeup is learning how to properly contour your face. Learning how to do that is life changing and will forever shape the way that you make your purchasing decisions, allowing you to select the right makeup. To learn more about how to contour your face, all you need to do is follow these simple steps and make the correct purchases. This guide may be minimal, but it focuses on the truly important aspects that will have your face looking its absolute best.

Draw a W 
Draw a W on your face? Surely this is some sort of misprint, right? Wrong. Troy Surratt is a celebrity makeup artist and he recommends the W drawing technique as a subtle alternative to some of the more overt facial contouring techniques that are typically recommended by the majority of beauty and fashion experts. The most important part of this tip? The W is not drawn on the face until after the foundation has been applied. The shape should be drawn on the woman's face with a bronzing powder. To start, sweep it down one of the cheekbones in a diagonal motion, all the way up to the bottom of the nose, then head back down and up to the opposing cheekbone. For the finishing touch, apply a stroke to your hairline.


How To Achieve The Best Results

While this technique may seem exceedingly simple, the way to achieve the best possible results is to go for the most natural look. To obtain this, select a bronzing powder that is not too much darker than your skin tone.

Steer clear of shimmery textures and aim for creating matte shadows. The center of the face should also be kept as luminous and light as possible, to maximize the skin's glow.

A great finishing flourish? Use a pearly highlighter to dab the tops of the cheekbones, as well as the bridge of the nose for guaranteed gorgeousness.


Products To Use

If you are ready to give contouring your face a try, remember that it's important to only use high quality products. They don't have to be expensive if you are a savvy shopper and look for special deals and promotions at such shops as Sears

Below are Some of the items that you may want to check out and will help you look your best include: 

Charlotte Tilbury Wonderglow - this amazing product is powered by light diffusers. When you are trying to bring out your skin's most luminous qualities, using the translucent elixir provides a spotlight effect.

a fine single woman must have this in mind

"5 things you believe that every single woman should have? "when I ask this to some women friends and work colleagues Their answers were thought provoking, to say the least. They answer from branded lipstick,perfume,bags,travel and "financial security," revealing that personal values remain unique to every woman. However, there were some responses that seemed to be consistent throughout from my co-workers that I do working.

-A plan for the future-

Whether your goals are educational, occupational, or both - at the top of the "must have" chart is the need to have a plan for the future. While wandering aimlessly through life is a lot of fun, it will not pay the bills or secure your retirement. Developing a plan for the future is simple: decide what you want out of life and then do some research to find out what it takes to get there. If you'd like to run your own business one day, what kind of educational path should you take? What kind of job experience should you be acquiring in the mean time? If you'd like to put some money into your account to ensure a financially sound future - what investment strategies should you use? How much money should you put into savings each pay check? Although these questions aren't necessarily fun, you will be happy you addressed them when you have a solid foundation upon which to stand. A good group of girlfriends.(mindmapture.com)

I remember this code from the movie in hollywood said "No matter who breaks your heart, or how long it takes to heal, you'll never get through it without your friends." A good group of girlfriends is better than a whole gallon of beer or any brandy in the freezer. When times are good, you will have someone to share in your successes and celebrations. When times are bad, you will have someone to come over at 3 a.m and pull your head out of the oven. No woman is an island, not even you. Though your independence is impressive, we all need people to lean on when our resolve waivers.

-A solid sense of self-identity-

Self-identity is the source of self-confidence and self-respect. A woman who knows who she is and what she wants also knows what she deserves and refuses to settle for less. And why should you settle for less? You're fabulous! The ugly truth is: people will do whatever you let them get away with. So put a stop to it! Demand respect from others. Carry that confidence around with you like a huge blinking neon sign. Show the world you are proud of who you are, know what you want, and won't stop until you get it.

-Good health-

A single woman on the move has to be up for anything. You simply can't be ready at a moment's notice if you're laid up on the couch guzzling cough syrup. Take care of yourself. See a doctor regularly. Try to maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating the right foods and maintaining a regular exercise regimen. Take your vitamins. What happens if your boss decides that today is the day you're ready for your big promotion and you've called out sick? What if today is the day that the hottie in legal has worked up the nerve to ask you out, but you're lying in bed in a sea of used Kleenex? It's not cute, and definitely not productive! A n integral part of ensuring both a fulfilling future and the highest quality of life is to make the practice of health a priority.(paleoforwoman.com)

Ultimately, you can choose where your life will lead you. Strive for those things that will help you get to where you'd like to be in the next five or ten years. In a world that's constantly in motion, it's essential to think beyond next Saturday night - and the only person who can do that for you is you. Today's single woman is empowered and independent. So grab the bull by the horns, kick butt and take names, and most importantly, remember that we are all the masters of our own destiny no matter what our personal plan in the future.
