What is contouring?

Contouring is the art of redrawing areas of his face with a brush and correcting the defects. With just a clear and dark complexion, one will redraw his face, mark his cheekbones , refine his face or his nose , round a jaw too square.

The principle is quite simple, it is to play on the contrasts. With dark I create shadows and with the light I bring light and attract attention.

If make-up artists use this make up technique for years, it has been popularized by Kim Kardashian who does not show his nose to the paparazzi without a small contouring. And she does not hide it since she regularly posts photos of the different steps of contouring on her account Instagram.
