- Few of us have a perfect face shape, the most desirable shape usually being oval. Using darker foundation, clever highlighers and blusher, it is possible to create the illusion of a different face shape.
The following pictures give you a guide to where to shade or highlight your face. Each picture shows the contouring in brown pencil, highlight in yellow pencil and blusher in green pencil. (Please note this is for demonstration purposes only!)
