Hi my angels, in this YouTube tutorial, I show you how I cream contour using the Anastasia Cream Contour Kit in Medium. I filmed this twice because the first video was an epic fail! Don’t believe me? Here’s the proof! If you want to view the YouTube Video, click here Anastasia Cream Contour Kit in Medium tutorial
I did a review and a pictorial of the ABH Cream Contour Kit a while back and I will link the pictorial here. The review of the Cream Contour Kit can be found here.
I didn’t colour correct, which in hindsight I should have because the darkness around my mouth was evident. I also, didn’t bronze with powder because I felt that the shade cinnamon gave me more than enough warmth! I simply set my face with the MAC Mineralize Finish Natural (Medium Tan) because it has a touch of colour but is sheer enough not to interfere with the colour of the creams. It is a great setting powder.
I did set my under eyes with Lyric from the Kat Von D Shade and Light palette.
I also went over my contour to emphasize it with the Becca Lowlight/Highlight Perfecting palette pressed (I Used the contour shade). This has become my go to contour kit recently. I’m in love all over again . . . with the palette that is!
I went very low on my lighting and didn’t even use a ring light. I used a foundation about 2 shades darker that my skin tone to get it to look better on camera. I’m really trying with the lighting; I don’t want to disappoint anyone. I will get there.
I added MAC Spring Sheen Blush. The essence Silky Touch Blush (Secret It Girl) is a total DUPE! You can check out that post here. I finished off with the Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray and this added a glow as it instensified the pigments in the makeup.
All in all, I thought it was a good tutorial and I’m sorry if I came across a bit sad, because honestly, while I’m not afraid of the Cyber bullying, it does weigh down my heart. I am human of course; it is natural, even for me . . .
