does anyone shade their nose to narrow it? i had a rhinoplasty done two years ago and the swelling never went away (as you can see in my profile picture) i know there are people out there with bigger problems but its pretty devastating for me and affecting my day to day life to the point where i hate meeting people and speaking to people cos i know how bad it looks. i'm always trying to shade it to slim it down but i dont think i'm doing it right at all.

can anyone recommend a contouring brush or shade that would work? i use bronzer - is that right? thanks in advance for any help you can give me xx

 
I remember there was a video with Tyra Banks showing how to contour your nose or a guest that was showing people how to do it on her show....but now i can't find it! grrr.

lol Sorry, This was a pointless post. If i can find the link before anyone else responds i'll be sure to post it for ya!.

 
This is something I know a little about. You can use bronzer or foundation a few shades darker than your normal color. I use a brown eyeshadow from Ulta. You can run a stripe of highlighter down the center of your nose. Of course, everything must be blended. I use contour to give me more prominant cheekbones, shape my face a little better and to make my chin look a little smaller. It's not magic, but it helps.

By the way,I like your nose!

Here is Lauren Hutton hawking her nose makeup. It shows you how to do it and Lauren is pretty funny/strange (BTY you don't need her stuff.):

thank you! i think where i'm going wrong is the colour. i never know how much darker it should be.

 
I use a bronzer to shade the sides of my nose as well.

If you do a search, you sould be able to find some helpful threads on this topic.

 
yes i agree, go on you tube and search "nose contouring" or just "contouring" there are alot of helpful videos. and yes bronzer can be used for contouring

 
If you use a highlighter such as Stila's, or Benefit's High Beam/MoonBeam/Hollywood Glo and apply it to the bridge of your nose
