If you have a round and chubby face, give definition to the same by contouring your face perfectly. It is best to keep your look dewy and nude when you are opting to contour your face heavily. To give your makeup a shinier look, you can apply your highlighter at the inner corners of your eyes. This will also help you look more awake!
