lexirocks-blog-blog asked: I'm really interested in contouring. I've read quite a bit about it online and I've tried looking for different products, but I guess I'm not quite sure what type of product I'm looking for. Do you have some suggestions for 1) a good product for a decent price, 2) a good way to find the color I need, and 3) a basic explanation of the proper way to contour? Thanks so much!!

1) any matte, bronzer that is not orange/red based and more grey based (so it looks like a natural shadow). A natural contour on your face isnt orange/red. A cheap option is NYC Sunny! You can also use a darker face powder! I’d recommend a powder from Loreal True Match line because they say W (warm/yellow), N (neutral) or C (cool) so you can easily pick a shade from the N range because they are not orange/red. Benefit Hoola and Too Faced Milk Chocolate bronzer are great higher end options :)

2) I’m going to give you a video for how to contour! It’s a lost easier to watch than for me to explain in words lmao
