  • Is cream or powder better for contouring?

    If you have normal or oily skin, you’ll want to opt for a powder contour makeup instead of a cream one. Powder contour is easier to blend and it’s best for oily skin as it keeps it matte. Powder contour can also be combined with your cream product to create an even more dramatic, long lasting effect.

    Contouring makeup is usually applied after foundation and concealer. Cream, liquid, and stick contours can be applied directly on top of foundation and then blended out for a seamless finish.

    Do you put foundation on before cream contouring?

    Before you apply contour makeup, apply a foundation the same color as your skin all over your face. Choose a foundation or concealer that’s a few shades lighter than your normal skin tone and apply it anywhere the sun would naturally hit, like the center of your forehead and the apples of your cheeks.
