Every makeup product we choose should match our skin tone, otherwise, it will not provide us with the desired result. Whether it’s lipstick, foundation or contour. Like, for simple contouring, you need only one shade, but for intense shading, you need two. You need one dark shade to define the lines of the bone structure and a lighter one for creating shadow.

Find Your Undertone

Select the right makeup product that suits your skin tone. Firstly, try to find your undertone. You can easily find this by examining the colour of your veins. Like, if you have purple or bluish veins, you come under cool undertones. Whereas the blue-green veins are found in people with neutral undertones. And the green vein indicates the warm undertone.

Choose the Right Shade 

You can take the help of the foundation shade in choosing the contour. Select a contour shade that is two to three shades darker than the foundation.

Pick the Right Formula 

If you are confused which of the two – the powder or cream contour formula – suits your skin, let us make it easier for you. Choose a powder formulation if you are new to makeup as it is easy to blend and consumes less time. Also, if you are a pro in blending techniques, you can choose cream contour formulations.
