What is highlighting? • Highlighting is the blending of a makeup shade lighter than

the foundation in order to accentuate a feature or facial plane

• A correct colour selection will involve shifting approximately three shades up the tonal range of the foundation or skin tone, ensuring that you remain with the correct underlying skin colour

• Common areas for highlighting are: – Brow bone – Centre of the eyelid – Centre of the forehead down through the bridge of the nose – Cheekbone plane – Centre of the chin – Collarbone – Top of the breast

What is contouring? • Contouring is the blending of a makeup shade darker than the

foundation or skin tone in order to diminish a feature • A large nose could be shaded at the sides to make it appear thinner • A double chin could be made less obvious by shading underneath

the jaw line • Generally a correct colour selection will involve shifting two or

three shades down the tonal range of the foundation or skin tone, ensuring that you remain within the correct underlying skin colour

• Common areas for contouring are – Hollows under the cheekbone – Cleavage – Under the chin – Socket line of the eye – Hairline – Sides and tip of the nose – Temples – Hollows of the collarbone

Before beginning your highlighting and contouring, you must first determine your face

shape!
