1. What is Contouring & Why Bother? (A brief history and the real reason we do it)

Contouring isn’t new. It’s been around for ages! Think back to theatre makeup, where actors used light and shadow to exaggerate their features for the audience. Even the Egyptians used kohl to define their eyes and create the illusion of depth. So, we’re basically continuing a time-honored tradition of enhancing our natural beauty… with a little help. 😉

But why bother with contouring in the first place?

• Definition: It adds dimension to your face, making features pop. Think of it like giving your face a mini workout. 💪
• Sculpting: It can subtly reshape your features, like slimming your nose or defining your jawline.
• Confidence: Let’s be honest, looking good makes us feel good. And contouring can give you that extra boost of confidence to conquer your day! 👑
• Photography: Contouring helps your face look more defined in photos. Say goodbye to flat, washed-out selfies! 📸

Think of it this way: Your face is a canvas. Foundation evens out the color. Highlight brings light to the high points. And contour? Contour is the artist, sculpting and defining the masterpiece! 🎨

2. Introducing the ZenaMakeup Dream Team: Cream Contour Stick & Brush (Why these two are a match made in makeup heaven)

Okay, let’s talk about the stars of the show: our Cream Contour Stick and Contour Brush! We didn’t just throw these two together; we meticulously crafted them to work in perfect harmony. Like peanut butter and jelly, or Netflix and chill, they’re just better together. 🤝

Feature	Cream Contour Stick	Contour Brush
Formula	Creamy, blendable formula that melts into the skin. Non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores!). Long-lasting and buildable coverage. Infused with skin-loving ingredients like Vitamin E for a healthy glow. 🌟	Soft, dense synthetic bristles designed for seamless blending. Angled shape perfectly fits the contours of the face. Ergonomic handle for comfortable grip and control. Cruelty-free and vegan. 🌱
Application	Precise application for targeted contouring. Easy to control and build up the intensity. Travel-friendly and perfect for on-the-go touch-ups. Twist-up design for easy use and no messy product waste. 💨	Effortlessly blends cream products for a natural, airbrushed finish. Distributes product evenly for a streak-free application. Allows for precise placement and controlled blending. Easy to clean and maintain. 🧼
The ZenaMakeup Edge	We’ve painstakingly tested this formula to be idiot-proof. Seriously. You can’t mess it up (okay, maybe a little, but we’ll cover that in the troubleshooting section!). The Cream Contour Stick is designed to be forgiving and blendable, even for beginners. Plus, the color payoff is gorgeous and natural, never orange or muddy. 🍊🚫	This brush is the secret weapon to a flawless contour. We’ve tested countless brush shapes and bristle densities to find the perfect balance of control and blendability. The angled shape hugs the contours of your face, making it easy to create a natural-looking shadow. 💯
Why They Work Together	The Cream Contour Stick provides the perfect amount of pigment, while the brush effortlessly diffuses the product into the skin for a seamless, natural-looking contour. They are a dynamic duo that will have you contouring like a pro in no time! 🦸‍♀️	Together, they ensure the cream product seamlessly blends into the skin, avoiding harsh lines and creating a natural shadow. The brush’s design complements the stick’s application, making the entire process efficient and effective.

3. Choosing the Right Shade: (No Oompa Loompa faces here, people!)

This is crucial, people! The wrong contour shade can make you look… well, less than fabulous. We’re aiming for a natural shadow, not a fake tan gone wrong. 🙅‍♀️

Here’s the golden rule: Choose a contour shade that is 2-3 shades deeper than your natural skin tone and has a cool undertone.

Why cool undertones? Shadows are naturally cool-toned. Warm-toned bronzers are great for adding warmth and a sun-kissed glow, but they don’t create the illusion of depth like a cool-toned contour.

How to determine your skin tone and undertone:

• Skin Tone: Light, Medium, Tan, Deep
• Undertone:
  • Cool: Your skin has pink, red, or bluish undertones. You tend to burn easily in the sun. Silver jewelry looks better on you.
  • Warm: Your skin has yellow, peach, or golden undertones. You tan easily in the sun. Gold jewelry looks better on you.
  • Neutral: You have a mix of cool and warm undertones. You can wear both silver and gold jewelry.

ZenaMakeup Shade Guide:

Skin Tone	ZenaMakeup Contour Stick Shade Recommendation
Light	Cool Taupe
Medium	Soft Bronze
Tan	Deep Tan
Deep	Rich Cocoa

Pro Tip: When in doubt, go a shade lighter. You can always build up the intensity, but it’s harder to tone down a contour that’s too dark.

4. Application Techniques: The ZenaMakeup Method (Step-by-step guide with visuals, because pictures are worth a thousand blended sentences)

Alright, let’s get down to business! Here’s the ZenaMakeup method for applying our Cream Contour Stick:

Step 1: Prep Your Canvas

Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply your foundation and concealer as usual. Set with a light dusting of powder if desired.

Step 2: Locate Your Cheekbones

This is key! The easiest way to find your cheekbones is to make a "fish face" (suck in your cheeks). Feel for the bone structure beneath your skin.

Step 3: Apply the Contour Stick

Using the Cream Contour Stick, draw a line along the hollows of your cheeks, starting from your ear and stopping about two finger-widths away from your nose.

• For a more defined look: Apply a thicker line of product.
• For a more subtle look: Apply a thinner line of product.

Step 4: Blend, Blend, Blend!

This is where our amazing Contour Brush comes in! Using small, circular motions, blend the contour line upwards towards your hairline.

This is where our amazing Contour Brush comes in! Using small, circular motions, blend the contour line upwards towards your hairline.

• Important: Don’t drag the product downwards! You want to lift the face, not drag it down.
• Keep blending until there are no harsh lines and the contour seamlessly blends into your foundation.

Step 5: Repeat on the Other Side

Repeat steps 3 and 4 on the other side of your face.

Step 6: Optional: Add Contour to Other Areas

• Jawline: Apply the contour stick along your jawline to define it. Blend downwards towards your neck.
• Forehead: Apply the contour stick along your hairline to shorten the forehead. Blend upwards into your hairline.
• Nose: Apply a thin line of contour down the sides of your nose to make it appear slimmer. Blend carefully!

Visual Aid:

Imagine a "3" shape along the side of your face: Forehead, Cheekbone, Jawline. That’s where you’ll be applying the contour.

[Imagine a diagram here showing the "3" shape on a face, highlighting the forehead, cheekbone, and jawline where the contour should be applied.]

5. Blending Like a Boss: The Key to a Flawless Finish (Spoiler alert: it’s all about the brush!)

Okay, listen up! This is the make-or-break moment. Blending is the key to a natural-looking contour. No one wants to see harsh lines or obvious stripes on your face.

Here are some blending tips to live by:

• Use the Right Brush: Our Contour Brush is specifically designed for this! The angled shape and dense bristles make blending a breeze.
• Small, Circular Motions: This is the key to diffusing the product and creating a seamless finish.
• Light Pressure: Don’t press too hard! Let the brush do the work.
• Blend Upwards: Always blend upwards towards your hairline. This will lift the face and prevent the contour from looking muddy.
• Patience is Key: Don’t rush the blending process! Take your time and make sure the contour is fully blended before moving on.

Think of it like this: You’re not just applying makeup; you’re creating an optical illusion. The goal is to create a subtle shadow that enhances your features without looking obvious.

6. Troubleshooting Contouring Mishaps: (We’ve all been there. Let’s fix it!)

Okay, so you messed up. Don’t panic! We’ve all been there. Here are some common contouring mistakes and how to fix them:

• Contour is Too Dark: Use a clean blending brush to diffuse the edges of the contour. You can also apply a light layer of foundation or concealer over the contour to tone it down.
• Contour is Too Orange: This means you’re using a bronzer instead of a contour shade! Wash it off and start over with a cool-toned contour product.
• Contour is Too Low: This can drag the face down. Use a concealer to clean up the edges of the contour and lift the face.
• Contour is Patchy: This usually means you haven’t blended enough. Keep blending!
• Contour is Disappearing: This could be because you’re not using enough product or your foundation is too thick. Try applying more contour or using a lighter foundation.

Remember: Makeup is all about experimentation! Don’t be afraid to try different techniques and find what works best for you. And if you mess up, just wash it off and start over! It’s not brain surgery. 🧠🚫

7. Beyond the Cheekbones: Advanced Contouring Techniques (Nose, forehead, jawline – let’s get sculpted!)

Once you’ve mastered the basic cheekbone contour, you can start experimenting with other areas of your face.

• Nose Contouring: Apply a thin line of contour down the sides of your nose to make it appear slimmer. Blend carefully! Be sure to blend well at the tip of the nose to soften the look. Avoid harsh lines for a natural appearance.
• Forehead Contouring: Apply the contour stick along your hairline to shorten the forehead. Blend upwards into your hairline. Ensure the color blends seamlessly with your hair for a natural look.
• Jawline Contouring: Apply the contour stick along your jawline to define it. Blend downwards towards your neck. This technique can create a more defined and sculpted jawline.

Important: Less is more when it comes to advanced contouring. Start with a small amount of product and build up the intensity as needed.

8. Maintenance & Care: Keeping Your Tools Happy (A clean brush is a happy brush!)

Just like your skin, your makeup brushes need love and attention! A clean brush is essential for a flawless application and preventing breakouts.

Here’s how to clean your ZenaMakeup Contour Brush:

• Wash regularly: Aim to wash your brush at least once a week, or more often if you use it daily.
• Use a gentle cleanser: You can use a brush cleanser or a mild shampoo.
• Rinse thoroughly: Make sure to rinse all the soap out of the bristles.
• Reshape the bristles: Gently squeeze out any excess water and reshape the bristles.
• Dry horizontally: Lay the brush flat on a towel to dry. Don’t stand it upright, as this can cause water to seep into the handle and damage the brush.

Pro Tip: Deep clean your brush once a month with a brush cleansing mat to remove stubborn product buildup.
