Highlight and Contour

After I apply my full face foundation, I go underneath my eyes  and draw a triangle with the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer (Cafe). Also with that concealer, I apply it to the middle of my forehead, down my nose, and a little on my chin. 

I also apply the L.A Girl Pro Concealer (Dark Cocoa) on the hallows of my face, around my forehead, and down the side of my nose. 

I blend everything out with my fake beauty blender. Then I go in and set my concealer with my Covergirl Translucent Powder (Translucent Tawny) and let that set for some time which is the "baking" process. I use an all over brush and swept the excess powder off from my "highlighted" areas. 

Just to set what I already contoured, I use my Shea Moisture Illuminating Powder (Mandaly Dusk),  to give my face some more dimension. 

Not my own picture, but my overall process of highlight and contour as described above. 

That is my overall baking and contouring method, and there are so many tutorials out there on YouTube if you need more of a visual.

Recent Beauty Purchases

One\\ L'Oreal True Match Powder (n8- Cappuccino)
I've purchased this before and I absolutely love it to set my foundation.

Two\\ Maybelline Fit Me Concealer (30- Cafe)
I've purchased this before, also and of course I love this because I feel like I talk about this product  I do every time I do a makeup post.

Three\\ Airspun Loose Powder (Translucent)  
I've heard so many positive comments about this powder on Youtube, so I finally picked it up. I mostly use this for baking underneath my eyes, the center of my forehead, and down the bridge of my nose. I'm not sure if I apply to much or leave it on for too long, but sometimes it has a white cast residue leftover.

Four\\ Benefit Goof Proof Brow Pencil Sample (6-Deep) 
This was actually a free gift from Ulta, and this product is one of the many new brow products that is coming out from Benefit. I love how the pencil is shape having the teardrop tip which makes outlining and filling in your eyebrows just that simple.

Five\\Covergirl Ready, Set Gorgeous Foundation (320- Soft Sable)
 I was in the need for some new foundation for the summer time, but I love how lightweight this foundation is on my face and it is a bit dewy so I often set it with powder which I need for these hot summer months.
