Highlighting has become a makeup phenomenon - everyone (including us) is obsessed with achieving brilliantly glowing skin via super shimmery highlighters. It creates flattering lines in the face, and can obscure any curves or edges you’d rather not spotlight.

Finish by grabbing the angled contour brush and going over the E with the bronzing powder and the C with the highlighting powder.Contouring is a trend that’s here to stay.

You could also use a Beauty Blender sponge to do this.

Take the dry blush brush and go back over the E’s and C’s in swirling motions to really blend it into the skin.

This will pull that area forward and really highlight your eyes.

Draw the letter C by holding the brush in the middle of your forehead just above your brow and outlining the eye all the way to your temple then down under your eye just above your cheekbone.

Now swirl off any remainder on a tissue or the back of your hand and use the same brush to fill up with the cream highlighter.I like to also fill in the whole neck to really shade it, but I have profile issues and do anything I can to make mine more pronounced! Finish the E by sweeping the brush just on and underneath the jawline. Go back along the underside of your cheekbone to the ear then down to your jawline.

Suck in your cheeks to see exactly where your cheekbones are then continue the middle prong of the letter E by sweeping the brush from your temple to just underneath the cheekbone (to hollow it out).

Start at the middle of the top of your hairline and begin the letter E by tracing along the perimeter down to your temple.

Swirl the brush on the back of your hand to take away some of the intensity.After you’ve applied your foundation all over your face and neck but before any powder, dip your brush into the cream bronzer/darker foundation to load it up.Angled Contour Brush - I love Sigma’s Large Angled Contour Brush for its fluffy angled bristles.Bronzing + Highlighting Powder - you can certainly buy them separately but I love Trish McEvoy Dual Resort Bronzer + Highlight because it’s the perfect amount of warmth with a hint of shimmer.Blush/Contour Brush - the best brush to blend cream foundation or bronzer is a natural-bristled round-headed one that is densely packed like the Cozzette Contour Stylist Brush, the iconic must-have for makeup artists at Fashion Week around the world.

I love Dior Full Coverage Fluid Brush for an investment but Sonia Kashuk Flat Top Multi-Purpose Brush will get the job done too. A Flat-headed Foundation Brush - this really presses the cream into the skin and does all the work for you.Cream Foundation or Cream Bronzer - you can simply find a cream foundation that is four or so shades darker than your foundation (I love Jouer Age-Repairing Perfector Foundation in Tawny for fair to medium skin tones or Almond for darker skin tones) or you can try Hourglass Illume, a cream bronzer + highlight duo that I’ve been using on my clients with fair to medium skin tones for at least three years now.Anyone can do that, right? I’m showing you how to do it with both cream and powder formulas together for staying power, but you can certainly do one or the other. And the easiest way to do this is by drawing the letter E on each side of your face to contour and the letter C on each side of your eyes. Remember in art class how you used darker shading to push an area away and lighter shading to pull an area towards you? That’s all we’re doing here! It creates the illusion of a stronger jawline, more chiseled cheeks and a slimmer face. When you apply foundation to your entire face, you’ve created a blank canvas, so you have to go back and add the dimensions back in. Post + photography by amy nadine, graphic design by eunice chun
