Makeup Artist Shares Tips to Disguise a ‘Chubby Bunny Face’ and Double Chin
Many women worry about achieving the perfect makeup look for their face shape. Thankfully, a talented makeup artist is here to lend a helping hand.
Beauty Tips from Sydney’s Ask Ellen Beauty
Content creator Ask Ellen Beauty has shared a transformative video detailing how to create the illusion of a slimmer face, specifically for those with a ‘chubby face.’ Addressing her 700,000 followers, Ellen emphasized that her tutorial is not about losing or gaining weight but rather about enhancing one’s natural features.
Embracing Your Features
Ellen humorously stated, “My chins, my choice,” before launching into her viral beauty tutorial, which has garnered over 145,000 likes. She emphasized that many invest in fillers and fat transfers to achieve a fuller appearance, but not everyone desires that look. For those wanting a sleeker, more refined appearance, her techniques provide a perfect solution.
The Art of Contouring
To start, Ellen creates the appearance of a ‘slimmer neck and a reduced chin.’ Instead of contouring directly under the chin (which can appear obvious), she opts to lighten the face compared to the body. This method keeps the focus on the desired areas and minimizes distractions from fuller parts.
Effective Techniques for a Flawless Finish
The Sydney-based beauty expert recommends tanning the body while keeping the face lighter, highlighting the forehead and beneath the eyes. “It’s about bringing forward what you want to see,” she advises. For those with jowls or a ‘chubby bunny’ look, Ellen suggests using contour from where the ear meets the head to just above the mouth for a more flattering appearance.
Blending for a Natural Look
After contouring, Ellen blends everything using Mac Radiance Foundation to ensure a smooth transition, including blending her ears. “It’s actually wild how natural this turns out in person,” she claims, demonstrating the effectiveness of her techniques.
Final Touches and Audience Reactions
Completing the look requires blush slightly above the contour and finishing with Huda brightening powder to shape the face. Ellen’s audience responded enthusiastically to the tutorial, appreciating its technical yet accessible nature. Many praised their chubby faces for their youthful appearance, while others, regardless of their face shape, enjoyed learning dramatic contouring methods.
