Back2Basics: Contouring/Highlighting

Sometimes when we apply foundation, it evens us out SO much that there is no depth or definition, and the face tends to just look flat. I will show you my technique of contouring and highlighting, and bringing that depth back to your face. This technique is also helpful for those who's face is a little darker than the rest of the body; using darker contour colors along the hollows of the cheekbones and temples and the jawline will help your face match the rest of the body better. Hope this helps you guys :)

@lilpumpkinpie05 - Oh no...... I just found out that they've discontinued the MAC Studio Stick Foundation soon after you posted this video! :-(

Since I don't like the mineralized cream because it's gunky, I am at a loss.... what would you use for contouring if you ran out of the Studio Stick foundation?
