Whether you want your face to look slimmer, or give a more 'sculpted' look, contouring and highlighting is definitely your friend. It's blown up recently, probably because it's flattering on everybody (ahem, and because of the Kardashians).
I'm a 'shortcut' kind of girl and like quick ways of doing things, so I rely on a darker powder to sculpt as opposed to creams or darker foundations which take more time to blend. My tip is to buy a pressed powder about 3 shades darker than your skin tone, instead of bronzers which end up having some shimmer or turn out too orange! In terms of brushes, it can be anything! Don't feel restricted to just angled brushes, any blush or powder brush will be fine.
Highlighting suits night time as it reflects the light so beautifully, and can seen little bit too much for day, but totally rock it with a lighter powder (not as shimmery) for day time if you want!
I hope you enjoy my tutorials! I want to keep it short and simple for the busy ladies out there!
Please let me know what other 'How to' tutorials you'd like to see!

Yesterday, myself and Haiina were hanging out at Sham's house, and I thought, I have a scarf expert with me, show me some looks! So we filmed 2 looks, and then I tried it myself and made another look! This is perfect for those bad hair days, or days you can't be bothered styling, which is me when I wake up late for work!
