How to Make Your Face Look Thin with Make Up

Some people think that celebrities are made just perfect by god. That they are just astonishingly beautiful. But fact is far from this. Photographs on internet which shows celebs without make up, creates disasters. Those unrecognizable faces without layers of makeup prove that some techniques may be super transformative. You too may arm yourself with such tricks and tips to take pounds off your face and build it look slimmer immediately.

Contour your face

Ever noticed how artists use dark shades to recede and light shades to bring features forward? You've got to use this concept of art (and life) to your advantage by contouring your face. Pick up a contour colour or matte bronzer one or 2 shades deeper than your skin tone and a highlighter which shade lighter than your complexion. You'll choose between cream or powder textures or maybe a mixture of the 2. Regardless of the formula you use, mix it properly using a makeup brush because streaked contour makeup may be a major turnoff.

Creating the illusion

Apply your's contour shade in a diagonal line from the centre of your cheek up towards the ear. Pout, such as you do for selfies, to figure out the right placement and work the shade up your cheek. Don’t forget to mix. Placing the contour shade higher can build your cheeks look sharper. Swipe the highlighter across the tops of your cheekbones to bring out the contour to create illusion.

For a thinner nose and sharper jawline

Swipe a contour powder down the sides of the nose bridge to create your nose look slimmer. Stop simply before the nostrils. Apply the highlighter down the bridge of your nose and mix properly to complete the effect. 

To define the jawline, apply bronzer along the area and mix the shade to make a seamless contour. Ignore a double chin showing up within the photos ever again.

Highlight your eyes and also eye brows

The roundness of your face gets emphasised with fuller lips however well done eyes will build the rest of your face appear smaller. So, it's a smart idea to play your eyes up with liner, shadow and mascara. You'll leave your lips natural with a tinted balm or gloss to make them appealing.

Eyebrows, again, play a very important role in defining your features. Select a higher, more pronounced arch to balance out the roundness of your face. It stretch the appearance vertically, drawing your eyes upward.

Playing with light

Highlight the centre of your face, then the area between brows, the bridge of the nose, the Cupid’s bow on top of your upper lip, and within the centre of your chin. This can downplay the width of your face.

Don’t forget to mix the contour shade upwards into your temples. Repeat around(sides of) the hairline to accentuate your bone structure.
