00:00I really was my mom's Barbie head.
00:03I was curling my hair with curling irons when I was five.
00:06What?
00:07No joke.
00:07With hot curling irons.
00:09Yeah.
00:09Hi, guys.
00:10Jessica Alba here.
00:11I am with Refinery29's beauty editor, Lexi, and we are going to show you how to do an
00:18honest beauty contour.
00:21For me, the key to contour is blend.
00:25I think the worst thing is when you can see a streak on a face.
00:29Agreed.
00:32Your face, you want to bring it out a little bit more here, but if you have a round face,
00:37you want to make it a little bit longer.
00:40So you put a tiny bit of a darker color in the cheeks, and again, you just blend.
00:46And see how it just blends and disappears?
00:48What about the forehead?
00:49What's the strategy there?
00:50So for the forehead, I just go in along the hairline.
00:53I do like to go in a little bit darker right here, just right on the sides there.
00:58And it just kind of shortens the forehead a little bit?
01:00It just shortens the forehead, and then I'll do a little bit of a highlight here.
01:03But you don't really have a problem with that.
01:05Okay.
01:06I, on the other hand, do.
01:07Wait.
01:08I could use a little contour sometimes up here.
01:11Okay.
01:12Because my forehead could look a little, you know.
01:14I think it's really important to define your jawline.
01:18You want to create a shadow really underneath the jaw and blend down.
01:26I mean, I think the key here again is just blend, blend, blend, because you don't want
01:29to see a harsh line.
01:30Yeah.
01:30You don't want to see it.
01:31It really should just look like a shadow.
01:35So I'm just going to go up here, at the top of your cheekbone, to pop your, that highlight
01:43right there.
01:44And give you that like, glowy, makeup, no makeup look.
01:49That we all want.
01:50Okay.
01:51I'm going to go with the top of your lip.
01:55And do a little bit on the bottom here too.
01:57It just kind of pops that right there in the middle and makes your, you have a little bit
02:02more of like a pout.
02:04I'm going to pop your cheeks.
02:06When you do your own contour, do you use your fingers or brushes or what's your strategy
02:10like?
02:11If I'm at home, I'll use a brush.
02:14But if it's, if I'm on the go, I'm definitely using my fingers.
02:17Not that you would do it in the car while you're driving to work.
02:19No, definitely not.
02:21Never.
02:22Definitely not at long stoplights.
02:24So this is a playful kiss.
02:26And now that we're going into summer, I think lip glosses are back guys.
02:32They really are.
02:33And voila, you got your contour.
02:36You don't even need the pretty filter.
02:38Although we love a pretty filter.
02:40I love pretty filter.
02:40What's wrong with that?
