Which drugstore contour stick is best?

Best Drugstore: NYX Professional Makeup Wonder Stick This helps take the guesswork out of the whole ‘contour, then highlight’ thing.

    • What makeup do I need for contouring and highlighting?

    What you’ll need:

    • Liquid foundation in your normal shade.
    • Liquid concealer or foundation in a slightly lighter color than your skin.
    • Concealer, foundation, or powder in a slightly darker color than your skin.
    • Setting powder (Mine: M.A.C. Mineralize Skinfinish Natural powder in Dark.)

    How do you choose highlight and contour color?

    Make sure you test multiple colors on your skin until you figure out which shade works best with your skin tone. For highlighting, pick a powder that is one to two shades lighter than your foundation, and for contouring, go with a powder that’s one to two shades darker.

    Do you put foundation on before contouring and highlighting?

    Contouring makeup is usually applied after foundation and concealer. Cream, liquid, and stick contours can be applied directly on top of foundation and then blended out for a seamless finish.

    Do you contour and highlight before foundation?

    Do you contour before or after foundation? Contouring makeup is usually applied after foundation and concealer. Cream, liquid, and stick contours can be applied directly on top of foundation and then blended out for a seamless finish.

    What can I use instead of contouring?

    You don’t need a special contour kit to achieve this: You can use two shades of concealer or foundation, or bronzer, highlighter, or even eyeshadow or brow powder to contour!

    Is it better to contour with cream or powder?

    ‘A cream contour is better if you want a dewy, more natural finish to the skin and a powder contour is better if you want a more defined, matte finish,’ adds Findlay.
