- In my new tutorial, contouring under or over foundation, I will show you both techniques so that you can see which side you prefer. I'll how you contouring under foundation and also contouring over foundation. I'll be using concealers as honestly, they work way better than contouring palettes and I'll show you why!
In this video I'll go through each side step by step and explain how and why to apply the contour under or over foundation. It's a great way for you to see which side you prefer and also maybe try the technique on yourself to see which looks better.
This is one of my many how to tutorials to come in a mini series, I hope you enjoy this video and if there are any looks you would like me to create, let me know in the comments below!

I do my concealer and contour under my foundation. When I did it the other way you could see I placed it there whereas if it’s under it looks like natural shadows and depth. I do notice when people put it on top-it looks very muddy and you can see where the contour starts and stops. That being said, I love that Nina says “do what you prefer.” Nina never says you HAVE to do it her preferred way. But…she is the professional, so I’ll take my advice fr a MUA that does other peoples’ faces for a living, opposed to a RUclips MUA telling us we have to do it their way because it’s what they do in their face. Awesome video Nina!💯🙃
Thank you so much for your comment! So glad you prefer this technique as well - I totally agree, I prefer concealer underneath too :) Thank you so much for your support!
Gave up on makeup decades ago. I'm never good at it... all i do is tinted sunscreen.... Now I'm just learning, and I've tried this last night.... YOU ARE HEAVEN SENT FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO PUT ON MAKE UP AT ALL! THANK YOU
That makes me so happy! Thank you!
I used to do make up often and was confident, then lockdown hit, trends changed and I felt like I got left behind. I've watched two of your videos and now feel empowered to try again :)
I'm African American, I don't do a real heavy contour anyway, but I definitely highlight before my foundation and it definitely helps. It's cuts down application time, it's helps eliminate hardish lines and helps with flash back to because I set the highlight to prior to applying my foundation. As a white woman I can see the difference even so much more in the contouring as well. I'm going to try doing both after this... my struggle has always been with blending out... so this definitely helps me tons!
Yes, Thank you! ❤️😘 I followed your thecnic and I got so much compliments on how nice, beautiful, flawless my makeup and skin looked!
I tried foundation over concealer and contour last night for my month late work Christmas party and I was getting compliments all night! My boyfriend said my makeup looked like I was going to a wedding! From one Nina to another thank you girl🥰🥰🥰🥰
Yay thanks so much Nina!
You definitely showed us in detail how wearing it under foundation works so much better. I find it does last much longer and if you apply these products over and blend you are disrupting your foundation too. Excellent video thank you beautiful Nina ! xo
Thanks so much for your feedback!
I definitely love the soft focus look. Thank you! ❤️
Love your technique,definitely will be using under foundation, thank you!
Your concealer under foundation trick has been a game-changer for me! It totally prevents any creasing I used to get and I don't need to use setting powder anymore either. The concealer also looks totally undetectable! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing!!
I've been watching your videos ALL DAY! I can't wait to try this method tomorrow, and that's coming from someone who has always put concealer and contour on top of foundation. Thanks for showing us! 😍
Yay thank so much for watching! Hope you love the new technique as much as I do!
Ahhh... that flawless finish! I hope many, many people take your advice! Great lesson! Thank you Nina!
Thank you 😊
Your technique is fantastic! I am in my mid 40’s and I just now started contouring. I could never really figure it out and didn’t want something so harsh. This technique is more subtle for my age and I love it so much. My husband even mentioned to keep doing what I’m doing because it looks great! Now that I have learned this technique, I have been actually doing it every day so i don’t forget it…. Thank you! Thank you!👍🏼🥰
So nice to hear! 😊
Thank you for the detailed views of both applications. I will be switching to your technique as I was wondering why it never looked just right and my skin looked so uneven or patchy.
Dear Nina, I want to thank you for your videos! Fir months I'm preparing myself for being independent and have a studio for my own. Day by day I discover other problems that I have to face and resolve. In the last month I begun to do something for me: I rediscovered my love for make up thanks to you and these are the few moments during the day when I forgot all my problems. After one month my friend visited me again in Italy and when she saw me she said:"how you look good! Obviously the problems let you look better!" No! Not the problems! 😄 I just follow your advice and feel better with a good make up that's done easily and fast ..... thank you very much!
Thank you so much for your comment Ariane, I truly appreciate it! I'm so glad that somehow my videos have helped you forget about problems and focus on yourself which is most important! Thank you again!
I really appreciate this video. I personally feel the same way and dislike the contour makeup on top of foundation. I prefer the soft focus look; it feels pretty and more natural and just far less jarring. I've learned a lot from your tutorials. Thank you. I appreciate how you explain the reasons behind it
I'm so happy to have come across your page, I have struggled my whole life doing makeup I buy all the good brands and brushes and they sit and go to waste I have tried so many different tutorials and given up but now that I follow you I'm learning so much and enjoying makeup for the 1st time ever- you make it easy and fun I thank you so much for your amazing videos and help. ❤
You are so welcome!
I definitely prefer your way. It looks so much more natural. Isn’t it the point of contouring? 🤔😉
I tried both techniques and even with smaller amount of product it looks patchy and muddy and it doesn’t stay put!
I can’t thank you enough for your tutorials. My man whom never sees the difference or subtlety of my make up told me I was stunning 😍
Yay so glad my videos are helping!
Hi Nina, I've only recently just came across your channel after trying to find easy step by step make up and I just wanted to say thank you. I've never really been into make up and only this year I've decided to try it properly. Your videos have been so helpful, every night I come on here and learn something new. Keep up the good job 👏
Thanks for subscribing 😊
Thank you 🙏🏻 for this makeup tips,I liked the way that you did it. ,can’t wait to try to apply the contour and foundation with this new method
Glad it was helpful!
I tried this new method and I love it ,I used the powder contour ,didn’t look the same as it looks in your video,but was still good,,probably I need to apply a darker tone or cream bronzer.By the way ,when I do my eyebrows I use your technique and my eyebrows look natural 🙏🏻😃
Thank you so very much this has been extremely helpful and yes I most definitely prefer your look with it under the foundation. I’ve started lye in life with makeup and at times I feel I must look like a clown. however I also know that with practice it will get better. I also watched your eye liner video and I also loved it thank you
Omg I'm so glad u made this video. I remember when i first got into doing my makeup i was never sure if I was blending well enough so i adopted this method of contouring underneath the foundation. It's so forgiving. This confirmed for me this method is actually good!
I'm happy to hear that the video was helpful for you!
Did a good job. I like the right side. It looked beautiful. Love watching you.
Im so glad i found your channel! Your videos remind me of what RUclips used to be and I love it! Cant wait to apply these techniques this weekend for a wedding.
😊
My contour and concealer under foundation! It looks more natural!!! I am with you Nina!!! ❤
Yes!!
I’ve watched so many of your videos already and have been taking notes! I’ve been looking for something like this where you pick the best out of all the makeup products out there. When I shop at a beauty counter like Mac or Bobbi Brown, they are obviously selling me on their products but I never know if those are truly the best. Thank you for doing all of the shopping and testing for us! It’s been so helpful!!
Thank you!!! 😊
I was wondering about this. I love this
Oh my your video probably is my saving grace! Everytime I contour, I feel orange! This should help my routine and gonna try it. Thank you so much! 💓
You're a STAR Thanks for the tips!
Nina I love you so much
Hi Nina. Great video, everything you put up a new one. I learned so much. It's definitely concealer underneath. Yesterday, my daughter's friends stopped by from California. I have a make-up room that is also a guest room, too. I was so tired that I fell asleep in our bedroom. When I woke up, everyone was sleeping. I applied my foundation with concealer underneath. I was amazed that my foundation looked great even after sleeping. Plus, I got a lot of you look great. Your make-up looks fantastic. Thanks, Nina.
So glad it's helped you!
U such a great teacher... I'm still learning about makeup and after watching your videos I've learnt so much even my sisters ask me about my makeup and I definitely recommended them to your channel.
Thank you!
I just recently discovered your videos and I loveeee them! Thank you
Glad you like them!
I tried on new years eve 2022 :) OMG I loved it.Thank you .
Thank you so much.., I prefer the foundation over the contour. I’m just now learning how to contour and apply makeup the correct way.., lol. All of your videos help so much .
Thanks for watching!
Hi Nina, thanks for your video and to tell you the truth I love the way the contouring looks under the foundation. Absolutely gorgeous! You are so beautiful.
You are so welcome!
I’m definitely going to give your way a try. It looks absolutely stunning on you! 🤩
Thank you 😊
Hi there! I love your videos and I actually think I will be able to learn from you ! I tried to buy your custom lashes but it said can’t be delivered to my US address 😞. Let me know if there is a work around as I love your products! Thanh you .. Brooke
I see what you mean. I like the more natural/soft look. Thanks for this video.
Omg i just contoured before foundation IT’S FREAKING AMAZING NINA!! i was missing out all these years THANK YOU
I'm so glad you tried it and loved it!
The under foundation looks much more softer and a more contouring look. I love the left on my side which is the one you like has well. Great job. Thank you for the demo.
I'm glad you liked the under foundation technique and contouring look!
Good idea 🌷..love it❤
I most definitely prefer foundation on top of contour,your techniques always result in flawless makeup!😉💜
Thanks for watching :)
Definitely I like the contour first looks smother!! Yeah you are at 200k congratulations!!! I used your techniques now and I also get complements on my makeup I felt like I was awful at putting make and I noticed I have improved with your videos!
Yay! Thank you!
Definitely your make up looks better on the left side, contour under your foundation. I’ve started to use my make up that way and the difference is a no brainier in my opinion xxxx
Honestly u’re the best thank you very much for u’re guidance u’re a star❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘
❤️
I actually tried this and i was so surprised it lasted didnt look cakey or false its brilliant thanku so much x
I love your good side versus the muddy side for sure!
Hey Nina just wanted to say hello and thank you! I’ve recently discovered your channel and tried applying make up products in the order you suggested… honestly, I saw the results IMMEDIATELY. Funny cause I had been feeling like my make up looked too heavy and after applying your technique and tips, my face looks more natural and brighter. Thank you for sharing your knowledge♥️

What a huge difference between the two side by side, Jlo does the contour underneath too and she always looks great
You are the best... ❤
I love your videos! I am learning lots! Thank you!
By the way, I love your accent! ❤️🇨🇦
Yay! Thank you!
Nina you are the best😊
I just recently discovered your videos and I love them! Thank you for your makeup tips. I also love your contact lenses. Could you tell me which ones you wear? And could you do a video on your favorite lenses?
I'll talk about lenses in an upcoming video :) I think these are fresh look hazel :)
I prefer this way you Show first ... i wear Concealer underneath the Foundation too and this since i put on Make Up (when i was 13, 14 and now i'm 52 🙈) ! I love the finer Shades (like an Ombre on the Nails or the Hair ... so the blend looks much better), u have no harsh lines with this technic! Also i love Contouring with Concealer ... they are softer to blend than a Stick or Palett! Your technic is for me 100% Thumb up👍 and thanks for sharing your Videos!
Sorry for my not so correctly english, but I only speek or write english 3 or 5 Weeks in the year when i make Holidays 🙈😉!
Whish you a beautiful half week, keep safe and much greetings from Vienna, Nina! 🥰👍
Thank you so much! Glad you like it!
I get what you mean about doing contour and concealer under foundation, however, the only reason I don't do it is because I don't have any dark concealer or contour stick. That's why I've been using Too Faced Chocolate Soleil as my contour powder. But I love the finish that you personally like, can't wait to try it and share. It looks very harsh on the contour over foundation side whereas the other side looks more natural.
So I am about to turn 42 years old and before I used to live wearing my full coverage foundation; lately due to some fine lines and different textures on my skin I’ve been leaning more towards skin tints. I would love for you to create a video of best skin tints for women in their 40’s. By the way, I’ve been using the Whind products for the past week and I am loving each product I purchased. Looking forward to seeing you in more videos, I follow many of your techniques, and it has definitely made a difference.
I'll def add to my list - glad my videos are helping!
Flawless.
You’re channel has grown so much!!
I know! feeling grateful :)
I like both sides I would do the cheek contour under the foundation and on the head i would do the contour over on the foundation ❤️ I'm only new tho I haven't tried any of this yet, my make ups coming on Thursday so excited 😁
Hi Nina, thank you for this video. Would it work if I'm using full coverage foundation?
Hi Ms Nina Ubhi I love your make up tutorials….it really helps me a lot coz i am not good to do make up thing ‘☺️thank you very much from japan 🇯🇵♥️
Thank you for watching!
More i see your vídeos, more i like to put on makeup, i learn a lot with you ❤ thank you so much. I'm from Portugal 😅😘
I'm glad you're enjoying the makeup tutorials and finding them helpful!
Thank you contour under foundation 4 me now to the bronzer video😊
I will try the underpainting and see how it works for me. I looks so simple.
I watched another video you did on this. I absolutely love the way you do it. I did it & love the look. Color correct question. I tried Charlotte T peach & it's just not stating especially in the inner corners that are so dark.Any recommendations? Thank you for sharing all your tips
thank you :) Try a thicker corrector like the Kryolan color corrector, it may last better
Prefer your way! The other way is the whole reason I didn't take to cream contouring, as it always looked so patchy on me. I now have a reason not to bin my contour stick just yet. Thanks so much Nina!
So glad you prefer this way!
Definitely your are saying right its looking good do countouring n highligher before foundation on the other way your other side looks sunburn so foundation should used after that thanks nina for making this useful videos looking forward more videos Good luck
Thank you so much!!
Hey...wonderin would u apply blush over the cheekbone area after contourin???or can i apply it over my cheeks along with the contuored area..i find this video relly helpful
When you used the smaller end of the Tillbury brush on your concealer did you wipe off the contour on that brush previously?
Girl there haters I love your makeup videos I don’t have instagram just RUclips but I love love your technique 😍
❤️❤️❤️
Ok I love this channel now
❤️
I'd like to add that both are useful in different situations. I used to work in darkly lit clubs and used contour over my foundation because the darkness made my makeup look washed out. I had to make it more dramatic so it could be seen.
Right up to 90s concealer was also called a base i remember my mum doing us sisters and cousins makeup on Eid❤🥳 concealer base, foundation, and then loose powder all over 🥰.. i remember i did it a couple years ago the new way with concealer on top of foundation mum was lecturing me that it will just sit on top and look odd but i carried on this way😂 lol until i met Nina.. thank you my lovely sis🥰😘may Allah bless you from his treasures xx
So true! I think most of us started this way but then trends changed the game! Thank you for the kind words my love ❤️ sending you lots of love
Just found your videos and I’m obsessed and binging them all! Did u use a damp sponge with foundation? Also, I have some jowls, could you do a video on how to contour that? It’s saggy skin right beside the chin….
Damp sponge 😊
So do u do contour and highlighter and blush under foundation? Or just contour?
Thank you for your videos 🌹, are really helpful. And how is it with powder contouring? Can I use powder under foundation?
Thanks for watching :) I wouldn't recommend using cream or liquid over powder as the finish will be patchy
@@NinaUbhi1 thank you 🌹
I was already doing your technique contouring under the foundation.
Yay
Amazing - tried it once and it looked great - then went back to reverse (contour on top of foundation) and 👎🏽 so contour underneath it is 👍🏼 ….sorry Nina I could have sworn you loved the Marc jacobs contour stick in videos going back a few now because you said how getting that warm colour from contour against skin tone/shade is key so not to look ashy but warm ….and so I bought it as we are almost the same skin tone / colour / shade but now I see you are loving the nars cacao, which is way darker then the MJ one as in its deeper richer not warmer so I’m confused love, should I buy the nars one now? 💚
Glad you prefer this technique! I do still use the MJ concealer but it just depends on how much time I have as the MJ blends quicker and easier so you have the right one, I just like to mix it up so I'm not always using the same products for you guys :)
Can I ask if you’re wearing coloured contacts? Is so, what colour and where are they from? I love them xx
Contour under foundation looks much better.... Thank you so much
Nina, if using a concealer for conturing, how many shades darker should it be from the shade one uses as actual concealer? Thank you!!
I’d say around 5 shades darker however it all depends on how many concealer shades the brand offers. If there are a lot of shades they offer then you may need to go darker. As long as you can see it and it doesn’t match your skin color then you should be fine
I’ve been seeing other ppl do the contour underneath and after this video I’m a fan of underneath without even have to try 😂 but I will this weekend. Do you also put blush underneath as well?
You’re gonna love it! Yes you can apply blush underneath as long as it’s cream or liquid texture.
Thanks I like contour under foundation
Do you have tips on choosing the right colors of concealers and bronzers? I struggle with this especially with changes of seasons.
This video should help ruclips.net/video/QhQOWgRS2jE/видео.html
Thanks so much!
Gorgeous Darlin... You have such beautiful eyes
Thank you 😊
If I wanted to use a concealer to contour, is there a specific shade I'd need to use or can I use anything darker than my skin tone?
You can use a darker shade but make sure it’s an undertone that flatters your skin color. For example on my skin I opt for a chocolate color as once it’s blended, it gives the right amount of depth.
I’ve a question- when applying the foundation, why use the beauty blender as opposed to a foundation brush?
Also, what if you’re using powder contour (ex the KVD contour kit), then wouldn’t that be better to apply after foundation?
I personally prefer the finish a beauty blender gives however if you prefer a brush then you can use that too - I prefer to show you why I use what I do and how to use those products. If you find a powder contour gives you the same seamless finish then you can use that if you like :)
New here 😊
And I know this is a year ago but I love the contour underneath I love it ❤ anyway I'm keep looking for a fast make routine I want to go back to me on makeup 💄
Same for both powder & liquid foundation???
Do u have to use a brush to blend ur concealer or can u use beauty blender?
You can definitely use a beauty blender!
❤️Ana
I will be trying to contour under foundation I’ll let you know how it goes🤩
Hi, don't you think that foundation on top of contour makes it risky and the entire thing can get mixed up and darker?
You know that since I’m new to the whole contouring thing. I was sometimes putting it on top and I have to say I need to look at how on top or beneath. Looks like.
❤😊
Hi Nina! I can see your contour definition under the foundation.
Hi! Yay glad you see it too :)
I love the concealer idea for the contour. How would you determine which shade to go? Is there a guideline to follow? Love to try this technique :)
Glad you like it :) I'd go for a darker shade that compliments your skin tone, for example if you have warmer skin like me then a warmer darker concealer looks much better than a greyish concealer. Go for a darker concealer that is within your undertone category.
I tried this... and I had to trust the process cuz it looked like a hot mess at first 😂 but it turned out really good in the end. Definitely doing it this way from now on. Only thing that looks weird on me is adding concealer around nose... I dont think i like it but the rest is 👍👍👍
Under is best
U r just naturally pretty I don’t thank u need anything
I am still experimenting with where the contours should be. Whether I do it on or under the foundation depends on the foundation used. Skin tints work best with contours u der them.
