In this post, we will talk about how to contour your face with makeup and a FREE contouring mapping worksheet to download and print out!
I remember seeing people on YouTube contouring their faces. My goodness, they make it look SO easy! Then, I tried it and did not succeed at it too well. Needless to say, I put contouring my face on the back burner for a bit.
However, contouring your face doesn’t have to be hard, and I was DETERMINED to do it the right way AND look good. I wanted to master the contouring of your face technique and actually be able to take a picture of myself after I did it, without feeling like a clown.

The GUIZE FACE FX Contour Collection creates four stunning effects to help you achieve ‘smart’ facial contouring. Highlight and Contour adds perfect depth and dimension.
And then the Bronzer gives a sun-kissed look without ever stepping onto the beach. Finally, Shimmer creates a flattering glow to complete your look. Easy enough, right? I can do this!
I was sent The GUIZE FACE FX Contour Collection in ‘Moonlight‘ to contour my face. However, you can use any kind of face contouring makeup to do this! I was a bit nervous but knew if I followed the directions they gave me, I could do it. I knew I could.
How To Contour Your Face With Makeup
The first step is to apply my CC tinted cream to my face. I do that first so that I am ready for my face to be contoured! This is the fun step, right? We shall see!
This is before I contoured my face (not too cute!):
Free Contour Mapping Worksheet!
I followed the face Contouring Mapping Worksheet below (download it and print it HERE!):
And these easy to follow face contouring instructions:
These instructions are great for using any kind of face contouring makeup. I recommend following the face contouring mapping worksheet, above!
First, map out your face by selecting Contour (2) from your Guize Contour Collection. Trace your temples, the sides of your nose, jawline and any other areas you’d like to narrow down.
Then soften the contour lines as you blend, blend, blend with Bronzer (3) to create natural-looking shadows. Add a thin layer of Highlight (1) underneath your eyes, to the center of the forehead, on the chin and the tip of the nose. Finally, dust a soft sheen of Shimmer (4) to complete your look.
Here is how I looked after using the makeup contour on my face:
I put a little highlight down my nose, on my forehead, and at the end of my nose. I defined my cheeks too! I think it looks good, do you? Not too makeup-y at all! I think I can do this!
