Lancome Le Duo - Contour & Highlighter Stick

Published: 2015-02-25 by Marina Milojević in Makeup

Lancôme has recently launched a new contouring and highlighting stick, which is designed to help you enhance your facial features.

Contouring & Highlighting is the most popular beauty trick for using makeup to change the way your face looks. Once you master the technique, it will be easy to highlight your best facial features, while concealing or minimizing your flaws. It also helps create the illusion of perfect symmetry. Lancôme’s Le Duo - Contour & Highlighter Stick is a dual-ended product that features a contouring shade on one end, and illuminating shade on the opposite end. The contouring shade is used to define, while the highlighting shade illuminates, creates instant radiance, and perks up your complexion. This take-anywhere stick is very practical, and it helps you to play up your best facial features no matter where you are.

Lancôme Le Duo Contour and Highlighter Stick comes in four different color harmonies. The product retails at $40.00, and it is available for purchase at Sephora. On Lancôme's website, this product retails for $36.00.

Suggested Usage:

Three different looks to add depth and definition where you want it:

Chisel your cheeks:

Beginning at the top of your ear, apply the contour following the line directly underneath your cheekbone.
Use the highlighter in a half moon shape, starting at the top of your temple and following down the top of the cheekbone.
Blend shades to create a faux glow and defined cheek bones.

Sculpt your nose:

Draw a line with the contour side of the stick down both sides of the nose (it’s important to blend so it looks natural).
To add more dimension or length, highlight down the bridge of the nose.

Define your jaw:

Contour along the jawline on both sides of the face, starting at the edge of the jaw toward the chin.
Blend well for a softly defined jawline add highlight to the chin to balance the sculpted jaw.
