The Ultimate Face-Slimming Makeup Trick

The Face-Slimming Makeup Trick Celebs Swear By. You probably wear just one color of foundation, right?




Well, models & celebs usually have two—and that’s the secret to their sleek, sculpted makeup looks! A lot of makeup artists, use one skin-tone-matching foundation color to create an even base and another shade that’s a teensy bit lighter or darker, to add contour to the face.




Many leading makeup artists say that when applied to the center of the forehead, nose, cheeks and chin, the lighter hue acts as a “spotlight” to brighten the face. Meanwhile, the darker shade can be used along the jawline to make your cheekbones look higher and slim the face.



If all that color mixing and matching seems like something best left to the pros , try this easy tip: After applying your regular foundation, use a slightly darker foundation shade and add a little bit just under your cheekbones as you would a bronzer. This’ll make your cheekbones more pronounced, and since the hue is neutral , not bronze or pink, you can wear it with any kind of eye-makeup palette.


Favorite Foundations :











Lancome's Renergie Lift. I have been using this for years & always get compliments. A fanatasic foundation that is light while giving great coverage and a luminous glow.










Loreal True Match - Another every day favorite. Natural looking coverage & blendable colors.
