Contouring “ice cream”: what is this new makeup tip that lifts the face?

Tiktok is full of influencers with the most varied beauty tips. The latest: contouring ice cream. Contrary to what its name suggests, this is not about eating ice cream to get a beautiful complexion. It is rather a make-up trend which consists of applying make-up in such a way as to give a lifted effect to the face.

A lifting effect in one minute

To achieve this, it is quite simple. Simply apply a diagonal layer of concealer, blush, bronzer and more concealer (in that order) starting from below the eye, then blending everything with a brush. The ideal is to use a fairly large rigid brush that will give a natural effect to the makeup. Results ? The superposition of these colors and their specific locations make the top of the face appear slightly more lifted with a guaranteed healthy glow effect.

The advantage of this technique? It only takes a minute to do and offers a rather impressive result. There is no doubt that all beauty addicts have become addicted to it.

On the other hand, for the result to be visually beautiful, it is important to have a light hand and apply yourself. While many beauty influencers apply thick layers of makeup in their videos, it doesn’t have to be. The thicker the lines, the harder it is to blend the makeup and get that natural lifting result. On the contrary, if it is badly placed and in “package” you will be able to obtain an opposite effect. So, we put everything on the technique and we take our time.
