I’m a make-up artist – my contour trick shaves off face fat and gives supermodel results in seconds
A MAKE-UP artist has shared how to shave off face fat and get supermodel cheeks without surgery in SECONDS.
Beauty buff Alessandro showed his followers that they don’t need to undergo buccal fat removal surgery to look chiselled.
Instead, they just need a contour stick and a few seconds to spare.
To achieve a supermodel-style face, the content creator dotted his contour further down his face – rather than the traditional under-cheekbone placement – and created a hollowed-out effect.
He drew just one circle of cream in the section he wanted to look hollow before lightly blending it upwards.
Contouring was popularised as a make-up trick to lift the face and create structure.
But the new method shown by Alessandro on Tik Tok works to make the face look more sunken than lifted.
He dubbed the look an “instant buccal fat removal” trick and captioned the video as a “Bella Hadid contour hack”.
The hollowed-out facial look has risen in popularity with many people opting to have their buccal fat – a pad of fat that sits at the bottom-end of your cheek bone – surgically removed.
Alessandro’s trick gives a supermodel-esque facial structure with zero medical downtime.
He used an £11 contour stick from NYX to create the look.
Beauty fans flocked to the comments to share their amazement and ask if this trick would work on all faces.
One woman, who used Fenty’s Matchstix contour, beamed: “It has me looking like I went to a plastic surgeon in LA and paid good money for it.
“It works!”
Another advised fellow viewers: “I recommend using a cooler tone opposed to a warm tone for contour because you want it to look like a natural shadow!”
Others were in shock over Alessandro’s transformation, which saw him tot up over 500,000 views on the video.
One said: “Sorcery.
“Thank you so much for this.
“You RULE!”
Another gushed: “You’re a life saver!”
A third said: “I have been doing it all wrong.”
Alessandro goes by @mualesandro on the popular video sharing app and has almost one million followers.
He posts a range of videos from nose contour hacks to product reviews and self-styles as a “beauty lover”.
