I know how to contour, but do y'all have any tips for pale skin contouring? I have pale skin and when I contour I feel like it is too drastic of a color change. Thanks guys :)

I have the same problem, I find its easiest to either use a very fluffy brush and light hand or to use a normal face powder in a darker shade, that way your contour will be matte and you can have a better color range that won't be drastic to your skin tone.

I like to contour before I put my foundation on that way if I put too much it ends up being ok cuz it all blends nicely together when I out my foundation on top, I have very light skin and this had worked awesome for me, hope it helps =)

Don't contour with colors that are too dark. Maybe a light taupe color will work. And I recommend contouring before foundation and maybe don't even highlight.

Try ELF's bronzing and blush palette. I only need to touch my brush in it to get the right amount.

Not really a tip but a product recommendation. I'm an nc15 and have never used bronzer as it's always to harsh or orange looking. But if you can then I really recommend trying "bourjois bronzing primer" you can wear it over or under foundation, the color is natural and it's so easy to blend. I'm a beginner at bronzing and this stuff works really well :)

Use NYX matte eyeshadow in "taupe" it works amazing.
