Another tip I should add here is that your perfect contour shade should be the same shade as the shadows on your face and neck. Lighter skintones (depending on the undertone) would get greyish shadows hence why they need a grey toned contour. This tip really helped me in finding my contour colour
I disagree with the second girl's tips. This is not to be pretentious, but to help people with similar noses. If you conter the bridge of your nose to make it looks smaller, you're back to square one. The smaller bridge in comparison to the base of your nose will make the base look big. It doesn't really fix the "issue". It just makes your overall nose look a bit smaller in proportion to your face, but still bulbous. If that's what you're going for, then there is no need to change your routine. If you want your nose to look less bulbous, put foundation over the bridge of the nose so it blends into the rest of the face. Then use a lighter color on the side of the nose to brighten the sides up. Then you contour only the tip of your nose. Do a very small amount. I like to add blush on the tip after. This way, you get a baby-like button nose. There is no bridge, but your nose looks cute like a little bunny. I'm black so this is what I do. I get a lot of compliments when I do it. I embrace the shape of my nose and try to highlight the cute parts of it. To me, bigger noses look weird when you try to contour the bridge. It makes it look broader and kinda manly.
yesss I do this too !!!! I just draw a circle around the tip of my nose with contour, blend, and put blush either right on the tip or underneath. it enhances the natural nose shape really well :)
i have a thin nose bridge but bulbous nose, wide alar. so, what i do (it realllllyyyyyy works trust me) 1) my nose bridge is thin, so i have to widen it. shade the area BESIDE the nose bridge (not on the nose bridge itself, the skin at the sides of the nose bridge). this will make your nose bridge wider, which is good for those with too thin nose bridge note: the ratio of the thickness of my nose tip to nose bridge is 3:1. yes, that’s how horrible it is. 2) i narrow the alar by shading the ‘wings’ of my nose tip. 3) once step 1 and 2 is done, the nose bridge and the alar should look more aligned in thickness. next, fix the bulbous tip of the nose by contouring the sides of the nose tip. NOTE: DO NOT shade your nose tip too thinly. if u do that, it will make your nose tip look even bigger. shade your nose tip so that it matches the same thickness as your nose bridge. (TIP: shade from outside to inside. start shading widely, and then slowly narrow your shading until you’re satisfied my biggest mistake as a newbie: shading my nose tip too thinly. i always though having a small nose tip = shading thin. NO, you should try shading widely.
Wide noses are actually interesting because the give the face a strong and a deeper look that attracts you. Meanwhile thinner nose gives a delicate touch that balance the face and makes you focus on the eyes more . I mean you can feel what I'm saying
east asians in media are paaale af but a lot of us are naturally olive and/or tan easily. a lot of chinese/korean celebrities aren't even pale in real life, they just cake on white ass foundation (with grey or pink undertone wtf) and use filters lol
this is only for east asians, not all asians, i clicked it thinking it would help my desi nose lol, do u mind changing the title to make it more accurate?
Thank you so much for posting this!!! my nose is very round so any time I try to find a nose contour video, the beauty gurus all use the same technique and it never works on me. I am happy that I finally found something that works! :D
@@bruh-wc1gs honestly just rock the natural nose you've been given I bet it's beautiful anyway 😊 But for makeup I have no idea how to contour noses, maybe I'll learn when I go to cosmetology school lolll
I love the “ALL” but then we completely disregard anyone that isn’t an east asain. please don’t use grays etc if u are a east asain watching this video and pay careful attention to your undertones and skin colour
I disagree for only using a gray toned contour. The contour u should be using is the one according to ur undertones, so like for me I have a warm skin tone so I would use brown, but if you have a cooler tone use gray. If you don’t go by these rules your face will look dirty.
@@honestlywhat6085 The same applies. use a neutral color, but with a more greyed undertone since shadows are grey. When we contour, we are trying to emulate the natural shadow of people with the bone structure we want. If you can't find a neutral color, a grey color will be the next best thing.
Your contour color essentially is just adding grey to ur original skintone since ur shadow is definitely grey. If u r of deeper complexion definitely choose brown but a grey-ish toned brown.
it’s great we have this tutorial but honestly i sometimes think these are borderline dangerous for pushing extremely eurocentric beauty standards. ethnic noses are so so beautiful and should be celebrated more. the video did say everyone’s noses are great and i am happy it addressed this. girlies pls just be aware of how much u stress about ur nose bc it’s not worth the anxiety or being upset about. ik there are many younger teens out here watching these videos, trust me i’ve been there when i was 15 hating my features but honestly fuck beauty standards they r bullshit anyways.
@@Introvertedpoet ur natural beauty is having a more prominent nose. I've never seen a natural nose that doesnt sit well on someone's face. think of ppl like adam drive, nina simone and barbara streisand. i'm sure your nose is beautiful the size it is
Tip 1: some noses look more prominent because of redness/darkness around the nose wings Tip 2: not all asians have cool under tones so a grey undertone contour powder might not be the best for everyone
your channel is a blessing. i’ve just found you 3 days ago, i’ve been testing out the techniques on this channel all weekend. i went out with some friends yesterday and they all complimented my appearance, and my bestfriend asked if i was doing anything different because i looked even prettier than usual. i wasn’t actually expecting anyone to notice anything different!! i followed the high cranial top video and makeup vids for suiting individual face shapes, such as this one. it’s crazy how such small details can make such a big difference.
I cant use a grey contour cause it looks like mud cause Im a warmer spring color, so I would usually used a peachy or brown (in my case very light) to contour my pale skin Edit: For all warm spring undertones like me, I suggest to stick to safe contour colors with brown or beige undertones, but use it holistically. Then make sure to use a peachy pink/red or coral blush slightly then very little highlighter on the tip of the nose to highlight your skin and make it look glowy
I feel like black people easily have the same noses as asians. Ive ssen every nose type in this video on ablack person and found mind. This was quite useful!!!
🤨 all of these examples are small, cute and dainty noses. a lot of asians have a wide, flat noses, with visible nostrils, but i don't see any examples here. of course, if you're going to use beautiful idols, the noses are going to be tiny and pretty
I have bulbous nose ,exactly like Mei Naganoand her r right in all, principally about the bangs, I used to have bangs and my nose always looked more bulbous than when I didn't have bangs!
i'm watching this and I'm like bruh, I already do all this, that's crAZY LOL I just remember analyzing my face and being like, what can i do to help my face?? I remember realizing I should do more with my eyes to distract from my visible nostrils I even add a beauty mark because well, I love how those look but also it just adds and also distracts from my nose lol I ALWAYS wear circle lenses too to help one of the reasons i got my septum piercing was so i can somewhat fill some space between my nose to my lips bc it felt there's too much space there and also maybe the piercing would give the illusion that my nose is a tiny bit longer maybe, also feels like it distracts from how small and short my nose is
Are we the same person ? 😂 My nose is crazy upturned, I have my septum pierced with a stack to give with nose a little more length. And I love adding a beauty mark
I'm not Asian, but my nose is more similar to the girls in this video. I have a bulbous + upturned nose.. I think my mistake was blending the shadow outwards instead of inwards
My nose bridge and root have same width and my nose is super tall, contouring by professionals makes it look too many and sharp which absolutely doesn't suit my face with babyish features.. can anyone help?
@@KDbelievesme too, I was also recommended to check out dear peachie because she has a lot of great tips for makeup and dressing up. I’m trying to dress and look better this year and explore my style so this really helps. I just need to know where to get the things, specifically clothing, if you live in the U.S do you maybe know good stores that have specific clothing such as boyfriend jeans or straight cut jeans or tops like v neck or more rounded neck tops?

Check out Aly Art and Alexandra Anele, they have series on their channels about nose contouring, i learned so much from them (i have bumpy nose and one nostril is wider then the other ://)
Please can you do one for non Asian ones? I'm an Arab, I have a big nose :((( and I don't know how the hell I'm gonna start countering it My nose is similar to 0:44 but bigger, however the shape is pretty much similar
