Clinique Sculptionary Contouring Cheek Palette
Cheekbones aren’t really something we were blessed with (not if we’re comparing ourselves to Lara Stone anyway).
Sure, we make the most of what we’ve got with a bit of contouring, but only when we have the time. Oh yeah, and when we can actually be bothered.
Plus, heavy contouring wasn’t so big at the Fall ’15 shows. Backstage they were kind of doing the opposite – contouring with highlighters and blush – like at Nina Ricci. It wasn’t so much about adding shadow, but more about adding light and colour which makes your skin look ultra-fresh and radiant.
Cue… Clinique Sculptionary Contouring Cheek Palette. Excuse us for gushing but, sorry, could Clinique have nailed it any better with this palette?
We must admit, for us, blush is usually a sequel to bronzer and a bit of contouring, but this changes everything.
You can also use this palette in more ways than one. Click through to see how it’s done.

How we did it:
Start by brushing the medium shade over your cheeks.
Then, apply the darkest shade along your cheekbones (in the hollows).
Finish-off with a swoosh of the highlighting shade at the top to reflect the light.
You can also use the highlighting shade in the inner corners of the eyes to make you look more awake, or simply blend all three colours together and apply to the apples of your cheeks for a luminous glow.
