NON-BINARY BEAUTY Makeup tips and tricks for masculine-of-center soonlyweds. By Brittny Drye
Contour with Confidence “If you are more masculine-centered, then you want to contour your face and create a more chiseled, square shape rather than a soft, oval shape that tends to look more feminine,” explains Vanessa Ungaro of New York City-based luxury hair and makeup team Lauren+Vanessa.

Use cream-based products to create a chiseled effect. “It will look and feel more natural,” she adds. Pick a cream that is 2-3 shades darker than your skin tone. Apply near temples, under cheekbones, around your nose and under your jawline. Highlight with a cream 2-3 shades lighter than your natural skin tone on your forehead, top of your jawline, in the middle of your chin and the forefront of your face. Highlight the bridge of your nose, forefront of your face and underneath your cheekbone and chin. Blend, blend, blend! Apply foundation that matches your skin tone all over.
