The contouring craze continues, and there are tons of products to choose from based on your preferences. If powders aren't really your thing, you should check out Chloe Morello's tips on how to make cream contouring work for you.

As someone who's still working on finding the where to shade versus highlight, there were few enlightening moments for me. One such example is how she slanted her cheek contour downwards as opposed to toward the corner or her mouth. The shadow looks more natural, since it follows her bone structure. After watching, I also realized that I was neglecting my jawline. With a little bit more experimentation, I think I'll be able to nail this chiseled look.
