How to Contour a Round Face

The biggest form of plastic surgery in Asia is makeup, and a makeup artist can change their appearance into many different looks. In recent years, the goddesses on major social platforms all have big V-shaped faces, and many women with round faces want to know how to contour their round faces. If you want to master good makeup skills, you must not only practice frequently but also understand the role of each part of the face. Here are some tips for round face contouring. Let’s learn about them together.

1. Basic contouring techniques

1) Highlight technique 1: T zone is the focus

Use a highlighter pen to apply pearlescent highlight powder on the T-zone of your face. Be careful not to draw the highlight line on your forehead too high. The highest point should be above the middle of your eyebrows. The length should also be moderate, just a little longer than the distance between your eyebrows!

Then use your fingertips to spread the highlight powder in the T-zone evenly around to give your skin a natural glow. But be careful not to spread the highlight too far, but focus on the T-zone, otherwise it will look "oily" from a distance!

3) Highlight Technique 3: Modify Cheekbones

Applying highlights on the cheekbones can make the face fuller and more three-dimensional, and can also cover up wrinkles at the corners of the eyes. First, use a highlighter to draw a heart-shaped area on the cheekbone to outline the approximate range of the highlight, and then use your fingertips to spread it evenly to enhance the roundness of the cheeks.

1) Diamond-shaped face

Use shadow colors to modify high cheekbones and pointed chins, weaken the height of the cheekbones and the sharpness of the chin, brighten the temples and both sides of the jaw, and make the face look rounder.

2) Long face shadow contour

In order to shorten the visual distance between the chin and forehead, the chin needs to have an appropriate shadow. Use highlight color to widen the bridge of the nose, make the area wide and short, and shorten the length of the nose. It is not advisable to add nose shadow.

3) Square face

Use highlight color to brighten the middle of the forehead, above the cheekbones, nose bone and chin to highlight the middle part of the face, ignoring the facial features. Dark shadow colors are used on the temples and both sides of the jaw angle to make the face look round and soft.

4) Round face

Use shadow colors to blend on the cheeks and jaw angles to weaken the width of the face, and use highlight colors to brighten the forehead, brow bones, nose bones, upper edges of the cheekbones and chin to lengthen the face and enhance the three-dimensional effect of the face.

The highlight color extends from the forehead to the tip of the nose. If necessary, nose shadow can be added, extending from the eyebrows to both sides of the nose tip to enhance the three-dimensional effect of the nose.
