Tips For Buying The Best Contour Palette
Buying a contour is much easier than you think. Just follow these simple steps to land yourself the best palette possible. This post will cover some of the qualities to look for in a good contour and what to consider when purchasing one. The following are Tips for buying the best contour palette:
1. Size
When buying, always consider the size of your palette. If you have a smaller one, you should consider getting a larger one. There is no point in having an unusable product just because it is too small—but also no point in having an expensive product because it is too big. Having a larger palette will give you access to more colours and create more variety in your look.
2. Pick powder products.
When buying a contour, avoid cream products. Contour products are more effective in stick form because they give a more intense colour. Cream contours are easier to blend and are better for blending out harsh lines but they don’t last as long as a powder product, and the colour doesn’t show up on the skin with the same intensity.
3. Your skin tone
Once you have decided between cream and powder, you should consider your skin tone. If you are going to choose a cream, you should go with a lighter colour. If you are planning on using powder, the darker, more intense colours will suit you better.
Many people think they are better suited to darker colours when in reality they would look better with lighter ones. The darker shades tend to make your skin look orange and blotchy, while the lighter ones enhance your features.
4. The manufacturer’s instructions
Once you have chosen between powder and cream products, it is time to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for applying them properly. There are different ways of applying contour to each part of your face. Some of them require cream, others don’t. It is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions to achieve effective results.
5. Your application tools
Depending on the type of contour product, it may or may not require that you use an applicator, slightly different than an all-over blush brush. The type and brand of your brushes will affect the way you apply it and can make a huge difference between good and bad results. The result also depends on how much product you apply to your brush, as well as how concentrated your application is (how much powder per centimetre).
