Mac Taupe Blush
Mac Taupe Blush
Taupe is my go to color for contouring. For lighter skinned ladies, in general, it is the perfect color that actually is close to the color of a real shadow. That allows me to successfully create a slight hollow under my cheekbones and at my jaw line. It’s subtle, but effective.The nice thing about Mac’s Taupe blush is that there’s no orange which often is the case with contouring products.
Mac Mocha Blush

Another non descript color, Mocha seems to be misnamed. A neutral medium pink (no hint of coffee brown in this one), this blush is the workhorse of my blush wardrobe. It’s easy, natural and provides just the right amount of glow. Mocha literally goes with everything! When I’m traveling for business, there is never any doubt that my look that day is becoming and professional as long as Mocha is in my bag.

The cheekbone contouring is subtle here but it works. I also apply some right along the hairline on my forehead
