What is contouring?
The dictionary describes contouring as many things but the common definition is any line that adds or illustrates dimension. Contouring in make-up terms is using creams or powders to create subtle, artificial shadows on the face to enhance bone structure and make the face and features look more defined. Highlighting is using a matte powder or light-reflecting cream/powder on areas that you like and want to attract attention to. Ideally, highlighted areas must be smooth and free from imperfections.
