Make up face thinner in 5 steps
- First, smooth the complexion with a foundation. Pay attention to a nuance that blends in with your own skin tone. The aim is to make the result appear as natural as possible. To achieve this, apply the foundation with a make-up sponge or brush from the center of the face to the outside and blend in well with transitions.
- Now you should model and define your face shape. Contouring is the magic word here, with which you can make your face look slimmer. With the right technique you can even make your nose look thinner and your chin less broad. Instead, with a foundation that is two to three shades darker than the natural skin tone, draw a line under the cheekbones on the left and right. Blend everything well with a brush or special beauty blender. If you like, you can also use a creamy contouring product.
- Finally, apply the powdery highlighter with a brush to the highest parts of the face (cheekbones, bridge of nose, chin).
- With a bronzer you can create natural looking shadows. Dust the bronze powder along the hollows under the cheeks diagonally upwards to the ears. Apply a little product to the left and right corner of the forehead, the nostrils and the chin to give even more contour.
- For some freshness, dust apricot blush directly on the cheekbones and let it run out to the corner of the mouth. Especially apricot blush suits every woman.
Extra tip: To make sure the look lasts all day, finish off the make-up with transparent powder and a setting spray. This not only fixes the make-up, but also provides additional moisture to the complexion.
Even more make-up tips and tricks for defined facial contours
- Correcting wide nose: Use a matte bronzer or a contouring pencil on the eyebrow and draw a line up to the nostrils. Blend everything well and emphasize the middle of the bridge of the nose with a light, matte powder or with a shimmering highlighter.
- Double chin cheating away: Bronzer and Foundation can be used to create shades that make the face look thinner. This works by darkening the transition from the neck to the chin. To do this, carefully border the face with the dark powder and draw a thin line from the lateral hairline down to the chin.
- Make-up for larger eyes: A slim face shape can also be tricked when it comes to eye make-up. And this is how you achieve this effect: First apply a light eye shadow to the movable eyelid. Then place the darker eye shadow in the eyelid crease and shade out. Apply a little Kajal along the lower lash line to give the eye more expression. Finally, add highlighter in the inner corner of the eye. This opens the view.
- Correcting eyebrows: Thin nineties brows or even color bars are completely out of place at this point! It is important that the eyebrows have a curved shape and end about one centimeter behind the eye.
- Setting lips in scene: Do without lipstick in strong nuances. It will additionally emphasize a round face. Better: Choose a subtle color or a lip gloss in rosewood.
