Henna Contouring Is the New Stunning Technique You Have to See

Anyone hooked on contouring [1] is familiar with the Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit. It's a favorite of Kim Kardashian's [2], a constant bestseller at Sephora, and the product that made the trend popular with the everyday beauty-lover. After all, makeup artists (pro and amateur) all over Instagram use it to show off their dramatic before-and-afters. So, what better way to pay tribute to the instantly iconic palette than with a contouring competition [3]?

Anastasia Beverly Hills is offering a grand prize of $10,000 to the contestant with the best 60-second sculpting video, and self-taught makeup artist Shahina Aslam is making the challenge her own with a unique spin: henna contouring. Using Anastasia Beverly Hills contour and highlight products, Shahina painted intricate designs [4] on her face, then buffed them into her skin. This creative chiseling technique is similar to clown contouring [5] — the artist draws fantastic artwork on her face, but once blended, all that's left behind is a flawless complexion. Watch the stunning technique and get inspired.
