While many of us are still waiting for capital-K kontouring—the kind that requires you to reinvent your facial topography with an arsenal of products—to run its course, a little strategically placed shadow never hurt anyone. The simplest way to whip up some bone structure this summer? Illamasqua’s Gel Sculpt. The sheer, water-based stick comes in Silhouette, a neutral cocoa tone to suit a variety of skin tones. Glide it across the hollows of your cheeks and along the jawline, then blend with fingers until you’re left with a seamless finish. For those who aren’t afraid to get hands-on, apply a crescent of product to the palm of your thumb and stamp the pigment just below your cheekbone. Diffuse with your fingertips. The effect is noticeable but natural, and will shave some time off your morning routine. Even better: This method doesn’t require a road map.
