ELIAN RUSSIA CREAM CONTOURING STICK Architect Taupe 4.8 g

Creamy definition shapes the face with a natural-looking shadow instead of a harsh stripe. Architect contouring stick in Taupe has a cool neutral tone made for sculpting the cheekbones, jawline, and its plastic texture blends over foundation without disturbing the base underneath.

The wax-and-emollient formula glides directly from the stick, then softens under a brush, sponge or fingertips for adjustable intensity. Mica and mineral pigments give the shade its depth, while vitamin E and supporting emollients help the texture remain comfortable. The formula is designed for long wear, so the contour can stay controlled once blended.

Draw a small amount beneath the cheekbones, along the jaw and near the hairline, then diffuse the edges before adding more. The cool Taupe shade is especially useful for creating the appearance of natural shadow rather than warmth. Keeping the centre of each contour slightly deeper and the edges soft produces a more seamless result.
