The Contour – Part Deux.

Here it is! The final step in The Contour. Remember a few weeks back when we spoke about the essentials of contouring? How taking a little extra time in your beauty routine to contour your face shape leaves you with a noticeable, yet natural looking result? Part Un describes how and why I contour in two steps with two different formulas; specifically, with a liquid base. On today’s installment in the Holy-Grail Beauty Series, we’re chatting about Part Deux of The Contour and how to finish off that liquid contour base and really make it standout.

First off, let’s recap our previous steps and outline how we’re now at this point in our routine. We started with applying our face primer, all over foundation and contoured with our liquid products {part un}. Of course, in every single one of these steps we used this hot pink egg-shaped tool of gloriousness. It is THE secret weapon in achieving a streak-free application when applying liquid products. To finish, we set + finished our face with this glorious finishing powder. The next step is to put the finishing touches on our contour; to truly finish the face! Are you excited?

Meet your new best friend, the NARS Bronzer in Laguna. This bronzer is my absolute favorite product for Part Deux of The Contour. By layering a few swipes of this amazing bronzer over the top of my liquid contour base, I’m able to further define my contour, while ensuring the areas that I’ve placed my deeper liquid shade are delineated.

Now, let’s say you need to rush out the door and don’t have time for the full two-step contour; simply skip to Part Deux and just apply the NARS Bronzer! Apply to the same areas we spoke about here and you’ll have a subtle contour that takes a fraction of the time.
