So I’ve adapted and tweaked my makeup routine, so that today, I can get dunked in a pool of water, and my makeup will still stay on!
But really, don’t dunk me.
Skillful contouring can change your entire face shape, sharpen features, and add such a boost to your everyday makeup look. But as much as I love me some RuPaul’s Drag Race – chantay, you stay – not every girl would like to contour like Kim K a drag queen for daytime makeup. So, after much trial and error, I’ve come up with some tips and tricks for how to contour, like a daytime drag queen. 😉
