Makeup Tips To Follow For Defined Jawlines
Right Tools
First and foremost, you require the right tools for dreamy, chiselled cheekbones. All you need is a cool-toned powder or a cream (warm-toned products can look too bronzy for this effect), a fluffy, angled brush for powders and a precise beauty sponge or brush for creams. You also need a highlighter with a hint of sheen for the finishing touch.
Hollow Illusion
For getting sharp and defined jawlines, you need to play with light and shadow. For the perfect placement, do the classic “fish face” and apply the contour just beneath your cheekbones. Start near your ear and bend towards the corners of your lips (stop about two-thirds of the way down). Keep the stokes soft but defined.

Blend Well
It is important to blend the contours properly. Blend in the upward direction into the cheekbones rather than dragging it down. The goal is to have a seamless gradient and not a messy one.
The Lift Effect
To recreate Anjelina Jolie’s lifted effect, add a touch of highlighter to the tops of the cheekbones, blending towards the temple. This helps in creating an illusion of elevation and enhances the structure of the cheekbones.
Extra Magic
For an extra dimension, lightly dust a soft, neutral blush above the contour line. This softens the transition and keeps the look fresh and soft rather than harsh.
