Found: 7 Best Contour Products for Dark SkinHere are 7 high-performing contour palettes, powders and sticks worth checking out if you have darker skin. |
A well-defined facial structure is a makeup look that doesn't seem to be going out of style anytime soon. The trick to achieving it? Contouring — an age-old makeup technique that gained popularity in the beauty community a couple of years ago after celebrities like Kim Kardashian started raving about how they use it to transform their faces temporarily.
As popular as it is, there just aren't enough products on the market with shades deep enough that women of color can use. Remember: In order to properly sculpt any part of your face, you need a complexion product two or three shades darker than your skin. So when there aren't many options out there that are darker than caramel, it's really difficult for women of color to properly sculpt their faces as they please.
All in all, while the pickings are limited for those rich in melanin, there are some high-performing contour palettes, powders and sticks worth checking out if you want to try out contouring if you have darker skin. Ahead, we've compiled a range of them at all price points.
