Expectation vs. Reality: People Try Contouring for the First Time and Freak Out

We’re kinda obsessed with contouring here at CollegeCandy. And why shouldn’t we be? Give me six shades of foundation, a couple brushes and a heinous beast and I’ll give you…a slightly less heinous beast with Kim Kardashian’s nose. At least that’s the hope; I’ve never actually tried contouring, but the 50 YouTube tutorials I just watched make it seem pretty easy. Just smush all the colors together until chiseled angles magically appear.
Then again, I might be blissfully unaware of the skill required to make cheekbones materialize out of a fat baby face. I should know, I have a fat baby face and it’s a hard-knock, cheekboneless life. Watch the video below to see how fellow fat baby faced individuals bravely ventured into the world of contouring.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, contouring is all in the wrist. Something like that.
