Kim Kardashian made contouring a make-up essential after showing off her tricky technique on Instagram. Designed to completely reshape a person's features, using a mix of concealer, highlighter and bronzer, contouring quickly became the only approach to photo-ready make-up for most celebrities and models.
However, the laborious procedure of working up to Kardashian-sharp angles every morning has rendered contouring redundant for us mere mortals, who are lucky if there's time to apply a hint of BB cream before dashing out the door.
All of which makes Charles Wothington Salon's new hair contouring all the more appealing. A new colour technique that uses light and dark shades to flatter the wearer's skintone, face shape and features, Colour Contouring is set to be this year's must have bespoke service.
The professional technique of painting colour straight on to the hair and the use of micro-lights rather than high or low lights can give a personal prescription to either alter the entire face shape or just specific areas. Developed by Charles Worthington Art Team Director, Mark Trinder, colour contouring was first used on rising star Gala Gordon, proving this technique isn't just for blondes and could be the perfect solution to glossy, covetable locks and perfect-looking make-up.
