Sculpt Yourself Part 2

Noses are our topic today... Aside from plastic surgery, is there a way to change the shape of your nose? As a matter of fact there is!

Let's say your nose is wide and you want it to be slimmer. Get two concealers : one that is one or two shades darker than your skin tone and one that is a shade or two lighter. Now that you have your tools kkep in mind that your main objective is to blend well.... this is essential to create a beautiful illusion.

Remember that dark colors recede and light colors lift so you will want to stripe your darker concealer on either side of your nose (not on your face, on your nose) and the lighter shade down the bridge of your nose. Carefully blend the darker shade out along the sides of your nose then gently blend the lighter shade right along the top of your nose. If you do not like creamy products, you can also use face powders like Elain's Absolute Powder following the same color principles.

*This can be done after you have put on your foundation and it is best to set it all with Perfect Finish Powder at the end. This will take some practice but when done properly, it will yield beautiful results! Let us know how it worked for you.
