How To Use

For the nose:

  • Using the contour shade, apply two lines down the sides of your nose, starting near the beginning of your brow and ending at the tip of your nose. Blend product to create shadows for a slimming effect.
  • Remember: these lines determine how slim your nose will be, so place them accordingly.
  • Using the highlighting shade, accentuate the bridge by applying a thin line from the top to the ball of your nose and blend. This draws the light to the center of your nose, making it look straighter.
  • To make the nose look shorter: Apply the contour shade to the very tip and underneath the tip between your nostrils to add shadows for the illusion of a shorter nose.

For cheeks:

  • Suck in your cheeks to find the perfect hollow from your ear to the corner of your mouth.
  • Using the contour shade, apply along this line and blend upward to create the illusion of sculpted cheeks by creating shadows.
  • Blend upwards to instantly give the illusion of a facelift.
  • Apply blush right above the contoured line - on the apples of your cheeks - to create a naturally flushed look.

For the jawline:

  • Apply the contour shade underneath your jawline to square off your chin for a more sculpted look.

Studio Tip: Also a great eye shadow in a pinch!

Use it with:

  • Studio Skin 24 Hour Hydra Foundation
  • Studio Skin Full Coverage 24 Hour Foundation
  • The Original Photo Finish Foundation Primer

Wanted to try contouring...

I had been wanting to try the contouring craze going on at the moment, but was extremely weary of being able to accomplish it correctly. I read the reviews of the Smashbox Contouring Kit and because Smashbox has NEVER disappointed me before, I gave it a shot and purchased it. Thank God, I chose this...

it's fine, colors lackluster

I bought this at 50% off to try to teach myself how to contour. I have really oily skin so I don't like using too many creme products, including the dark/light concealer approach to contouring I saw all over YouTube. For reference bought the lighter version and I have neutral-medium skin. The kit co...

I love the quality of this product, I like the colors, very youthful, natural tones. I would say they are perfect for all skin types, they are easy to apply, and the colors are long-lasting. I use them every day, they are very pretty. I like that it comes with instructions on how to use them and illustrations.

I got the shade "light/medium" which was perfect for my light/medium skin tone. The contour shades have the perfect amount of pigmentation with zero fall out. They feel super soft, zero powdery, and they blend so nicely and effortlessly. "I received this product for free from Smashbox for testing and review purposes."

This contour pallet has 3 different powders for contouring, bronzing, and highlighting. They have a light and a dark version which is great so everyone can enjoy this palette, the mirror is a good size making the application easy . They include a guide to make application fool proof . The powders are a creamy texture and blend well with my foundation and concealers and stay put all day. I received this product for free from Smashbox for testing and review purposes.

Step-By-Step Contour Kit is beginner-friendly and convenient, with buildable shades for natural everyday looks. It offers good value by combining contour, bronzer, and highlight, but may have limited shade options and uneven texture. Best for learning contouring rather than bold, professional glam
