Forget Contouring – This Is The New Way To Achieve A Sculpted Look

The Gospel according to The Kardashians.

Forget contouring, there is a brand new way to sculpt those features, bible.

According to the Kardashian’s makeup artist, Joyce Bonelli, 3D tanning is the new trend to try.

The good news? It’s a lot less laborious on a day to day basis than contouring but still achieves stunning results, with an added glow for good measure.

The concept, which Bonelli learned from our own Marissa Carter, involves a bit of work at first, but then you are good to go for at least three days.

The three-step-routine does not need to be performed by a professional according to Boyce who told Femail:

“Anyone can follow these three simple steps to achieve a tan that looks natural, will increase your body confidence and give your skin a luminous glow.”

The three steps are as follows:

Step One: Apply an all-over tanning lotion or mousse with a tanning mit and leave to develop for an hour or two.

Step Two: Using a foundation brush, blend a bronzing gel into the areas of the face that the sun would naturally hit, such as the forehead, tip of the nose and sides of the cheeks.

At this point, you can also deepen the tan on areas like the décolleté and down either side of the arms and legs to create a slimming effect.

Step Three: Use a shimmering dry body oil on cheekbones and collarbone, to add luminosity and glow.

We reckon the third step MIGHT be overkill on a day-to-day basis, but great for a special occasion or night out.

With regards to steps one and two – we will totally be adding this to our Tan Thursday routines.
