Contouring Essentials

Contouring has gone from being a celeb craze to becoming part of everyones daily makeup routine, I am completely obsessed with contouring, I feel it makes such a huge difference to the overall look of my makeup. I often get asked what products I use/which are the best for contouring, however people often want cheaper alternatives so i've found the 3 best high end products and the 3 best drugstore ones. I have tried all these 6 products featured and they honestly all pretty much give the same outcome, a flawless contoured face! The Bourjois bronzing primer is still my favourite make up product to this day, and it lasts an absolute lifetime I discovered it about a year ago and I'm only on my second pot. To finish your contouring i'd suggest using a good highlighter, personally I stay away from liquid ones and stick to powdered ones like MAC Soft & Gentle or MUA's 'Undress Your Skin' powder which is a cheaper alternative to MAC.
