Contouring Pale Cool Skintone | Product Recommendations
hi everyone welcome back to the makeup chair today's Monday makeup lesson is all about contouring for paler skin I have really really pale skin naturally this is my natural pness and I'm going to talk about the products that I like using when I am this pale so the foundation that I chose today is the L'Oreal Tre match foundation in W1 this is the American brand it's a full shade lighter than the ones that we get here in Ireland great thing about this is that it's a warm tone it's kind of a Warm Neutral tone rather than a pink tone and I just applied that with an F21 and this is a nice little angle so I'm just going to blend it cuz it needs a little bit extra blending here are the products I like using when my skin is a little bit on the paler side starting off with this palette by blank Kus Cosmetics this is the Contour palette number one the cool thing about this is that it has this beautiful white that you can set your makeup with if your foundation is a bit too dark for you you can use it to highlight your skin if you're on a very pale side you can also mix and match these shades when I'm a little bit more on the warmer side I use the Contour powders that are in here as well but when I'm kind of on the cooler side I need to use this this is the Nyx taupe blush and as you can see it's more on the shadow side it's sort of like a brown gray kind of color rather than a brown golden it also has this beautiful blush in here which if you are looking for something like a dupe it's this one right here this is the Angel blush by NYX and I kind of used this one just in my handbag because I don't want to bring the palette with me so I'm taking my angled foundation brush and I'm going to go in with a little bit of that white so I'm going from the inner tear duct down to the edge of the nose and up past the eye that is where I highlight when I do the top of the forehead I go from the side of my brows on either side and I just go across like this and then come down the nose and then I also just do the tip of the chin as well so that's pretty much it for highlighting we don't really need to highlight cuz we have very pale skin to begin with so just have a little bit of fun with contouring instead my new favorite brush for applying my Contour is this fan brush so I'm just going to use the tip of the brush just getting right into that powder just to go from the edge of my lip to the top of my ear that is my little guide from here to here is my little guide so I just run this fan brush just in there like that you see that little line it creates it's very very subtle and then I kind of do little Wiggly motions pulling it upwards over the cheek and you can see that shadow that it's creating and then once that's done I like to go in with the same brush and a little bit of this blush along here and just dust that over the apples of the cheeks just above that contour and the Final Touch is just to apply a little bit of a golden highlighter and as you can see it's gone this is the merry luminizer using that same brush just to get right into the corners and then I'm just dusting this on the top of the cheekbones just to give it a nice Shimmer so that is highlighting and contouring for palor skin types if you have any foundation blush or Contour recommendations for paler skin types then just leave a comment and I will see you guys in a video really really soon remember embrace your pale skin don't highlight too much and just let that Contour do its work and I will see you guys in a video really really soon bye today's Monday makeup lesson is five steps to highlighting and contouring apply your foundation and
