Contouring
I recently began contouring, and I have enjoyed my
experience. At first I was really lost. Now, after a few tries I
feel like I am getting the hang of it. I am still a beginner, but I wanted to
share with you the products I have been using (in case you are a beginner
yourself).
I bought a Contouring Ulta Kit for $19.99. I figured I would
start off with something cheap (other pallet prices were around $45!). At the
time, I did not realize there was a difference in powder contouring and
creamy/liquid contouring. I tried the kit (which is powder) I saw a small difference, but
nothing huge. I then realized maybe I should buy the creamy/liquid kind, but
after spending money on a kit, I did not want to go out and buy another kit.
Instead, I found an NYX Wonder Stick which I love! Now, I combine the Ulta kit with the NYX Wonder Stick.
I think having both items as a beginner helps me learn how
to contour without spending a lot of money. As I get better at contouring I will try out the more expensive pallets.
Here are my pictures below!

I feel that as a beginner you should experiment with the make-up to see how you like it. On the NYX Wonder Stick box it has pictures of how to contour. It basically shows you to cover most of your face in white, and then add a little bit of the darker color. When I did that, I looked very pale, and my face was shiny all day. Instead I used the instructions that came in the Ulta kit (and added my own lines), and used that with the Wonder Stick. I first applied foundation, then the Wonder Stick, and after I used the Ulta kit. You should contour how you like, and how you think you will look best. There are so many ways to contour, and so many more products to contour with. Make sure you do research on any products you buy!
Thanks for reading my experience!
