Quick Fix: Face-Slimming Makeup
By calling attention to your eyes, lips and cheekbones, you can significantly reduce the circumference of your face --- and create a slimmer overall appearance. Here's how the pros do it.
"Make your eyes look gigantic," says Valerie Sarnelle, creator of Valerie Beverly Hills cosmetics. "The bigger and wider they appear, the slimmer the rest of your face gets," she says. False eyelashes applied to the outer corners of your eyes help, as does extra mascara (but not on lower lashes, as this can enclose the eyes).
Tip: Well-groomed brows add definition and interest to the center of your face and take the focus off the perimeter.
"Plump up your lower lip," recommends Paula Dorf, a New York City makeup artist. When your lips look small, the rest of your face looks larger by comparison. The best way to beef up your mouth is to dab a shimmery gloss in the middle of your lower lip (on top of a lip-tone lipstick or gloss), says Dorf.
Tip: Don't encircle your mouth with liner; it'll make your lips look smaller.
"Bring out the angles in your face," suggests celebrity makeup artist Brigitte Reiss-Andersen. How? By highlighting the "high points" of your face (cheek and brow bones) using iridescent powder.
Tip: Use your regular blush and eye colors in the areas that recede, like the hollows of your cheeks and the creases of your eyes, to exaggerate the effects.

Jeez Lousie, some people are mean. The best thing to do sweet pea, is learning the art of highlight and bronzers. Highlight the most prominent features on your face, cheekbones, the inner corners of your eyes, the tip of your nose, t-zone and center of chin. With the bronzer LIGHTLY, lightly dash the make up brush within the bronzer and in quick sweeping motions, whisp the bristles across your face in one quick, striahg tmotion just below the indentions of your cheek bones (i.e. under the part you used highlights to make a contrast, therefore creating the illusion of light, which creates convace areas to the face, which give the appearance of depth). Sounds hard, but it ain't sweetie. Just practice, practice, practice! And always go for a highlighting power or cream one shade lighter than you, and a bronzer two shades darker than you. Hope I help

I do too have a around face. although, i'm getting a greater slimmer face by using after utilising my base commencing place, I take a eye shadow pallet and look for a eye shadow shade it relatively is completely a teed darker than my relatively epidermis shade. Then I suck my cheeks in slightly and upload the colour with a makeup brush. be certain you rub it in nicely so it does not look such as you have 2 diverse face colorings. If that doesn't artwork then practice a astounding medium shade purple rouge mutually as sucking on your face. It usually relies upon of your epidermis complexion, yet this do artwork for me and that i wish it would artwork for you as nicely.

You can do some shading using concealer and foundation. Check out Making Faces by Kevin Aucoin (sp?). He does some amazing things to make celebrities look like other people by using make-up. It will definatly help slim the shape of your face, but you'll have to loose weight to loose the double chin.

There's not much you can do.
You can loose weight, or as others have said, highlight your cheekbones. Use a blush or bronzer a few tones darker than your skin.
Here are some other tips to make your face look different:
If you have a wide forehead, apply bronzer, or a blush a few tones darker than your skin , along your hairline.
If you have closely set eyes, sweep bronzer up towards your temples to pull everything up and out.

You can try strategically placed blush and bronzer to enhance cheebones. Also, draw attention to other parts of your face, like your eyes and lips. Do this by applying mascara, eyeliner, and eyeshadow. Add a pretty shade of lipstick and you're good to go!
