I want to look like I have contoured cheek bones. I've tried using both blush and bronzer but I just can seem to get it right. Any suggestions including colors?

You could use a powder foundation in a darker color!

Watch some YouTube tutorials... Like lots of them. Some people have different techniques for contouring. Try Benefit's Hoola bronzer - it's kind of pricey, so there's a Sephora brand dupe called Los Cabos and it's a lot cheaper. I recommend you use blush and bronzer together when contouring (bronzer to shape your cheekbones, then blush above it to add colour). Also, look for a matte bronzer as opposed to one with shimmer.

I use my regular foundation (or you can use a creme foundation- I love my femme couture flawless touch creme foundation is great for contouring) all over my face and then take a foundation about four shades darker than my skin tone in a nice rich bronzy color to cut out my cheek bones and contour. Ill attach a link to a picture of all of the places where I apply the darker foundation to contour, then when I'm done blending it all out, I set it with loreal true match powder in the shades n2 (neutral really light powder) and c6 (dark tan powder for where I contoured), and I also use nyx tan illuminator bronzer to highlight on top of my cheekbones. If you don't want to use foundation then some great powders to use are the loreal true match c6 color is a great natural color ( I love using shades 4-6 shades darker than my skin tone as bronzers because they're matte no shine or shimmer, and aren't orange since they're just a darker complexion powder not a bronzer!), elf blush/bronzer contour kit in st Lucia (this is a complete dupe for nars orgasm blush and Laguna bronzer but is only $3!), & hard candy blush/bronzer in pin up is a great highlight! I tend to stick with matte bronzers to contour because sparkly or ones with sheen in them can make your face look shiny/oily ( in my opinion)! And here's a link to a tutorial for creme foundation contouring/ she has great photos and tips and is pretty throughout; if I wasn't enough! My biggest tip too is that you make a triangle contour on your cheek, making it bigger at your hairline and coming down your cheek to a point& don't make your contour angle too steep. It will take you some time to play around and figure out what works on your face structure, it took me a few times before I got it right, also try to keep the majority of the really dark color to the outside of your face to really sculpt it, and don't forget to shade under your jaw line and down your nose too!!

Wow Amanda what an answer haha! Try getting a highlight (Hard Candy's baked bronzer in Tiki is perfect, it's totally a highlight not a bronzer lol don't know why they named it that)
