Don't contour with blush - that's so eighties. It was an amazing trend then, but it's not hot now. Instead, go for a neutral contour color that's one or two shades deeper than your skin tone.

Paul Auster

Makeup is a very delicate thing for me - I've got sort of defined features, so I don't like to do too much contour, as it can be a bit severe.

Andreja Pejic

Why something in the public interest such as television news can be fought over, like a chain of hamburger stands, eludes me.
