Pretty Palettes to Help You Contour Your Face Like a Pro

Looking to get a Kardashian-level selfie? InStyle rounded up the best contouring kits for every skill level.

Face it - contouring is not leaving the beauty world anytime soon. Many were quick to declare the trend as passé, but the perfectly defined complexions of Kim Kardashian, Nicki Minaj, and Jennifer Lopez (not to mention all the inspired tutorials on YouTube) beg to differ. Though more extreme versions are better left on reality TV, a little contouring around the perimeter of your face gives your makeup an almost HD effect and adds dimension to an otherwise uniform foundation tone. Of course, placement is key, and if you're new to the game, figuring out exactly what to do with all of the contour palettes currently on the market can be quite the struggle. We put together a list of our four favorite contouring kits and broke down each one by skill level so rookies and pros alike can find their perfect match.
