Neck Contouring is the New Insta-Trend

We don't think we've ever paid so much attention to the backs of our necks before

Neck Contouring is the New Insta-Trend

Yep, you heard us, neck contouring is a thing. ​We know, just when you thought that there were no more ways to contour, this viral trend comes out.

And we get it, because if you're going to contour your face and chest to achieve a more defined look, you may as well do your neck, too. (Well, if you're a beauty blogger or a Kardashian, anyway.)

So, we all know that contouring the jawline can help erase the look of a double chin, but have we been neglecting the backs of our necks? Jesus. Apparently so...

Beauty vlogger Makeup Wearables created this quick Instagram video to show you how to contour your neck, should you give a crap. She claims that this crazy beauty hack will work wonders if you're opting for an up-do hairstyle. Plus, it's much cheaper than a neck lift or a salon fat-busting treatment. And why on earth would you do that anyway?!

Going back to contouring basics, she demonstrates how to contour your neck the simple way, using a dark and light contour cream (none of this clown contouring nonsense!). 

Now, the process does look a little messy, considering that you can't actually SEE what you're doing, but we guess that practice makes perfect, eh? We remember only too well our first cheek contouring attempt...

Good times. Nevertheless, if you give this technique a go, RIP your white t-shirts.
