Contour and Highlight the Puffiness Away
Nothing is worse than feeling pale and bloated when you have to be in front of friends and family. An easy solution to your ghostly pallor is contouring and highlighting. Since bronzer and highlighter can brighten your face in the right places and create shadows and angles in others, it can really help make you look glowing and healthy. Choose a concealer that is one shade lighter than your skin to brighten your appearance, and a bronzer that is one shade darker to contour with. A highlighting stick is a great tool for a dewy and youthful glow that you just can’t achieve with a basic powder formula. Concentrate on your temples, cheekbones, cupid’s bow, the bridge of your nose, and jawline when applying.
