3. Contour
Contouring is another key thing that you've got to do if you want to really learn how to define cheekbones! Contouring might seem really difficult in the beginning, but it's easy ladies! You just have to make sure that you look up the right tutorial and you should have no problems contouring at all and really highlighting your cheekbones!
Contouring involves using a matte shade slightly darker than your skin tone to create shadows and depth, just underneath your cheekbones. By sweeping this darker shade in the hollows of your cheeks and blending thoroughly, you give your face a sculpted look. Don't forget to highlight! A touch of shimmer on the top of the cheekbones can make them pop and enhance the effect of your contour. Remember, blending is your best friend to achieve that seamless transition. Practice makes perfect, and with time, your contouring skills will make those cheekbones look sharper than ever!
4. Blush
Oh, how I love blush! Whether you are using pink or coral blush, blush is absolutely another way to define cheekbones that a lot of people don't use! Just a little, tiny bit of color to the apples of your cheeks can go a really, really long way ladies!
5. Bronzer
Bronzer is another surefire way that you'll be able to define your cheekbones! Just a little bronzer along your cheeks and also along your nose, forehead and chin and you'll be great! It'll make your entire look appear a little warmer and make your cheekbones stand out!
6. Powder
You can use powder too. Powder is something that I've used for years to highlight my cheekbones and it's worked wonders! Just a little powder up and down your cheekbones to really highlight them and you'll have celebrity cheekbones in no time!
7. Suck in Your Cheeks
Finally, whenever you are putting blush on or even contouring, suck in your cheeks! That way you can really see the line of where your cheeks are and what you should be highlighting and defining!
There you have it ladies, my top 7 ways to define cheekbones! Do you have any other ways to define cheekbones that may have worked for you?
