FAQs
How do I choose the right contour shade?
For lighter skin, choose a contour shade that is a few shades darker than your skin tone, typically a cool-toned brown.
Where do I apply contour?
Apply contour to the hollows of your cheeks, temples, jawline, and sides of your nose.
Where do I apply highlighter?
Apply highlighter to the high points of your face, such as your cheekbones, brow bone, and bridge of your nose.
How do I blend the contour?
Use a clean, fluffy brush and blend in circular motions, ensuring there are no harsh lines.
Can I use this palette if I have oily skin?
Yes, but you may need to set your makeup with a setting powder to prevent it from fading or smudging.
How long does the contour palette last?
The palette should last for several months with regular use. Discard after 12 months of opening.
Can I use this on other skin tones?
This palette is designed for lighter skin tones. Essence offers other palettes for different skin tones.
What kind of brush should I use?
Use a tapered contour brush for contouring and a highlighting brush for applying highlighter.
Troubleshooting
Contour color appears too dark.
Use a lighter hand during application, and blend thoroughly. Consider using a lighter shade if available, or mixing the contour shade with the highlighter.
Difficulty blending the contour.
Use a fluffy blending brush and blend in circular motions. Ensure your skin is well-moisturized before application.
Highlighter is too shimmery.
This palette is not shimmery, but you may be using too much product. Use a light touch.
Product is patchy.
Ensure your skin is properly prepped with moisturizer and primer. Use a light hand and blend well.
