Contour

Contour is used to add depth and dimension to your face by mimicking natural shadows. It’s typically applied to areas like the hollows of the cheeks, jawline, temples, and sides of the nose to subtly define facial structure.

Contour is designed to create shadow and definition, often using cooler or neutral undertones, while bronzer adds warmth and a sun-kissed effect. Products like the Rare Beauty bronzer stick can be used for both, depending on shade and placement.

Apply contour to the natural hollows of the cheeks, along the jawline and around the temples, then blend with a fluffy brush for a seamless finish. For easy blending, opt for liquid formulas such as the Rare Beauty contour liquid, ideal for achieving natural-looking definition.
