1. The square method
Draw a large square around your cheek. It doesn’t need to be a perfect square: more-or-less just outline your cheek.
Now, use a makeup sponge to blend in your contouring line.
This contour hack really defines your cheekbones!
2. The triangle technique
With your contouring cream, locate the apple or center of your cheek.
Place a finger on that point and angle it back towards the top of your ear. Now, use your finger as a ruler to draw a contouring line from the center point back to your ear.
Draw another line from the center point up to about an inch outside of the outer corner of your eye.
Use your makeup sponge to blend the lines.
You can see how this contour hack lifts your face.
3. The dot technique
If you are trying to achieve a very natural contour, then try this dot technique.
Make a large dot of contour product on the apple of your cheek.
Use a large blending brush to blend the contour back toward the top of your ear.
You can see how natural this cheek looks.
