Makeup Tips To Enhance Both

While there are many tutorials out there to create the illusion of high cheekbones for those who wish to have them, what about the people who already have high cheekbones but want to reduce their prominence and draw attention away from them? Per Elizabeth Mott and Byrdie, people with high, prominent cheekbones are more likely to have stronger face shapes such as diamond or heart. And for the high cheekbones havers, many may want to soften their look for a younger, ingenue-esque appearance. 

For this look, Where To Get recommended using a contour product such as a foundation two to three shades darker than your natural color, placing the pigment over the bottom edges over your jaw in a crescent moon shape, and then buffing upwards towards the temples with a sculpting brush until it is perfectly blended. To make your face look rounder, use a foundation one shade lighter and create a triangle shape between your brows, and blend it down towards your nose. And finally, when applying blush, make sure to keep the shape towards the apples of your cheeks instead of near your temples to create a softer, rounder look (via The Beauty Department).
