Contouring is a handy little makeup trick that can help you to create your perfect nose shape. By using a sculpting powder, or a foundation or concealer 1-2 shades darker than your skin tone, you can simulate shadows that can help you mimic the appearance of a shapely nose. Contouring the nose is typically part of a full face look, and should be done after you put on your foundation, but before you set your makeup. Remember, though, that slightly different techniques are used to make the nose to look thinner.

1  Draw two lines down the sides of your nose.

 Do this on top of your foundation. Use an angled eyeshadow brush to draw the contour lines. They should begin at the brow bone and go all the way to the end of your nose. Make sure to keep the lines light at first - it's easier to build product than to take it away.

• If you're worried about placement, start by tracing the line down from just below the inside corner of your eyebrows. Travel straight down the length of your nose on each side, and end each line at the inside edge of your nostrils.
• There are several different products you can use to contour your nose. A darker foundation or concealer, a matte bronzer, a sculpting powder, or a shade from a contour palette will all do nicely. Just make sure that the color is only 1-2 shades darker than your natural skin tone, and that it matches your natural warm or cool undertones. Cream products can also be used to contour, but powder is easier to work with, especially for beginners.

Highlight the bridge of your nose. Choose a highlighter 1-2 shades lighter than your natural skin tone and use it to highlight the bridge of your nose. Lightly apply the highlighter in a thin line from the top of your nose down to the ball of your nose.

• Be careful not to make the line of highlighter too wide. Highlighter emphasizes the area it's placed on, so applying too much will make your nose appear wider rather than thinner.
• If the bottom or tip of your nose is wide, only apply the highlighter halfway down your nose.
• To highlight your nose, you can use a specific highlighter product, an off-white or nude eye shadow, or a foundation or concealer a shade or two lighter than the foundation you're wearing.

Blend away any harsh lines. After drawing your initial lines, blend them away until you're just left with subtle shadows. You don’t want the product to look too obvious.

• Use a fluffy blender brush or a makeup sponge to blend both the contour and highlighter lines.
• Be careful not to blend the lines together - you want them to look subtle, yet distinct.
