Hi, ladies,
What colors would you suggest for contouring? Or should I mix up some darker foundation for that? I usually wear the blushes in the mauve/pink/little bit of peach shades, 1 ebony to 3-4 medium ivory (though I'm toying with throwing in a little peach with the ebony and ivory for my next batch). Thanks in advance for your WOW (words of wisdom!)

Hey Lauren!
In all honesty, I would mix a little bit darker foundation and add in some Taupe like eu-Taupe-ia. You might even be able to use eu-Taupe-ia alone. It probably won't take much.

Great advice, throwing in a *touch* of Eu-topia! I've used Eu-topia by itself for contouring (once, because I usually don't fuss w/that) but it would be even better blended in w/foundation, I think.

Thanks, Ladies. I just happen to have the Eutopia, so I'll try it out. L.
