YSL Beauty has created what can only be described as the most genius guide to contouring, using Cara Delevingne's face. Here is the complete guide with a few of BAZAAR's favorite products added in…

Step 1: Perfect

Create an even base with your chosen foundation. For a flawless matte finish that lasts for 24 hours, look to YSL's Fusion Foundation, $60, or YSL's Touche Éclat Foundation, $57, for effortless radiance. If you prefer light coverage, try Giorgio Armani's Maestro Fusion, $64.

Step 4: Sunkissed contour

Use a cream bronzer, such as YSL Les Saharienne, $55, along the top of your forehead, where the sun naturally hits it, and along the jawline to accentuate your bone structure.

Step 6: Blend

For a seamless finish, use a sponge or a good-quality brush to blend in circular movements.YSL's Les Saharienne, $55, comes with a versatile sponge that is perfect for this. If you prefer a brush, look to the brand's impressive selection.
