Contouring & Highlighting

Setting your contour and highlight ensures your makeup stays in place, looks polished, and lasts longer throughout the day.

What does “setting” mean in makeup?
It’s the process of applying a powder or spray over your cream or liquid products to lock them in and reduce movement or fading.

Benefits of Setting:
Increases longevity of contour and highlight.

Helps control shine in oily areas.

Prevents creasing or patchiness.

Gives a more refined, finished look.

When to Set:
After applying all cream or liquid products, but before applying powder products like blush or bronzer.

After the full face is complete, use a setting spray to finish.

💡 Note: Dry skin may need less powder; focus on light, strategic setting.
