Contouring and Highlighting are the simplest part of a makeup and also to reshape your nose. You just need to know a few tips and tricks on how to contour or highlight your nose. And that’s all!

While contouring, use a nice deep bronze or taupe shade. When you have tan areas, then go for a matte taupe shade or a light brown matte blush.

So, contour and highlight your face according to the shape and size of your face.

Follow these steps while you contour or highlight your face,

 

 

Step 1: Choose the right shade and product

You should pick the shades that are either lighter or darker than your skin tone to make your nose slimmer. You can go with powder or cream-based makeup. However, most of the people like to go with powder based makeup because it blends easily and works well.

For the eyes, you can use matte eyeshadow or choose a colour that is two to three shades darker than the natural skin tone. Don’t use any products that are shimmery or leave too much gloss on your face.

For the highlighter, choose a colour that is two or three shades lighter than your skin tone.

For contouring the nose, having a brush is important. It’s not just important to have a brush, it’s more important to have a right brush. If you’re using a powder-based makeup, go for a soft-bristled brush. Else, if you’re using a cream-based makeup, go for a brush with stiffer bristles.

Step 3: Start applying Primer and Foundation

The role of Primer is to minimize any pores and the foundation will enhance the contouring makeup. Firstly, use your fingers to apply primer evenly all over your face. Then apply the foundation using a makeup brush. The shade of foundation must be equal to your skin tone. Also, blend the foundation equally all over your face. Wait for a while until the foundation dries.

 

Step 4: Applying Highlighter

Start by applying a thin layer of foundation with an angled brush to the centre of your nose. Don’t draw a thick line which makes your nose appear wider. Start drawing a line from the top of your nose to down the tip. Now, blend and soften the highlighter with a blender brush. Highlighting the face will lift up your face.

 

Step 5: Finally start Contouring

Use a clean, angled brush to draw a line with the contour powder. Apply the contour on the sides of your nose and tip of the nose to make it smaller. With a soft blending brush, blend your work thoroughly. Finally, dust on some setting powder over your nose and face using a fluffy brush.

4. What you need to Avoid to make your nose smaller

Besides the nose exercises and home remedies, there are also some simple tricks to draw the attention away from your nose. Follow these makeup tricks to avoid unappealing nose looks.

  • Light Lipstick shades

Instead of dull or light shades wear bright, matte and bold lipstick colours to draw attention away from the nose. Firstly, outline your lip and then fill the inner part of your lips with the lip liner. After that, apply a bold shade or popping colour to your lips directly or using a brush. You can also go with a second coat if necessary.

  • Wearing heavy Eye makeup

If you apply heavy eye makeup, then the attention will be towards the centre of your face which thereby points out your nose. Instead, go for minimal eye makeups using some neutral colours. Sometimes, the dark circles also will draw attention towards the centre of your nose. So, it is good to apply a good amount of concealer.

  • Having Thin Eyebrows

Thin Eyebrows makes your nose look bigger whilst the thick eyebrows help to draw attention away from the centre part of your face. Shape your eyebrows into a perfect thick shape and fill it with a matching colour shadow.

  • Frizzy, detangled and plain Hairs

Have you ever wondered that hairstyles can draw attention away from the nose? Well, yes. Perfect curly hair can do the job well. Curly hairs with more volume will be in the focus rather than your fat nose.  You must also know the direction to part your hair. If you part your hair straight down the centre, the attention will be towards your nose. If you part sideways, then the attention will be away from the nose.

Furthermore, avoid the hairstyles like centre parts, straight-across cuts, tiny ponytails, sleek and straight styles. Such hairstyles may grab more attention towards your nose.

  • Wearing wrong Accessories

Wear earrings and necklace like a pair of long earrings with tassels, quirky neck pieces, and some quirky jewellery to grab the attention towards the accessories. Also, you can wear a hat, sunglasses, and drape a bright scarf.
