This is my own little tips. Try it out and tell me how it works!

CONTOUR SECRET! I Promise you this trick will change the way you contour.
So I noticed that Kim Kardashian and Amrezy's contour always form a right triangle on the bottom. Gone are the days with the low contour and curved line contour (which actually makes your cheekbones look low and saggy.)
Lift them up by applying your contour line a half inch above your natural contour line. That gives you room for blending and you have to worry less about clean up after.
If your face is round, a straight line angled downward will actually slim your face. A curved contour adds more width(only do this if your face is very slim and narrow.)

Hi Symone hope all is well, actually you're suppose to contour a bit higher when building structure on the cheek bone it's something that should never be done to low. You use brush strokes as if your shadow blending a picture forming the contour . It's been a known thing for awhile but everyone was so caught up on all these pic's it gave so many a confused idea on contouring. Straight lines doesn't build it actually drags the face down and if you curve to much it can widen the face. Just another tip you want to study your face and really look at your natural contour shadow by tilting your head forward slightly down and smile you'll notice your natural shadow form which will help guide you when trying to contour to your natural shape. :)
