I know you use bronzers and blush. but I've seen different tutorials on highlughtkng and contouring and they all say different things. I'm fair skinned too. how do you highlight and contour and what do you use?

Apply a light concealer under eyes, on forehead , & on chin.. darker concealer on cheekbones. then apply foundation. use bronzer on cheek bones up to sides of forehead. hope this helps (:

I've heard that blush in taupe by nyx is really good for contouring light skin I still have yet to try it but I only contour my nose with a light brown eyeshadow and blend really well.

I'm fair-skinned as well and I found bronzers to be too brown or orangey, and most blushes to be too pink. The only thing I've found so far that works with fair skin is NYX blush in Taupe. Especially if you have cool undertones.
And there are many descriptive Youtube videos on how to contour and highlight, I think it's easiest to learn how by watching a video of someone else doing it.

*forgot to add that the light concealer should be applied on bridge of nose, as well.

Pale skin can be harder to know what to use but using soft pinks, with an almost beige undertone, would be great for contouring. I personally really love dressyourface on youtube for make up tutorials, she by far gives the most complete contouring facial mapping than anyone else I've ever seen on youtube. She's some kind of middle eastern, so her coloring is much darker than yours, but she can give you a great education about how and where to apply what.
