Watch This Beauty Blogger Use Her Stiletto to Contour Her Face

Stilettos are genius tools to use when contouring your face (?!), according to beauty blogger Sadia Slayy.

In a video tutorial posted on Instagram, Sadia demonstrates how to get the most out of your favorite heels, which might help you justify spending $800 on a pair of Louboutins. Not ready to drop more than a month's rent on shoes? Any heel with a super-thin, straight heel would work. (That said, if you were looking for an excuse to get Loubs, this is it.) ​

After applying her concealer as highlighter under her eyes, she aligns the stiletto heel below her cheekbone and uses it as a guide when applying a thin line of cream contour just above the heel. She also uses the heel as a straightedge when contouring her nose by placing it in the center of her nose and contouring along the sides.

Why is this necessary, you ask? It's really not, but using a tool (such as a ruler or tape) that gives you the straightest edge will make your contour as sharp and defined as possible, which is ultimately the goal when contouring. 

Sadia then blends out the edges of the product seamlessly with a sponge for untraceably defined cheekbones and nose. She finishes with setting powder and setting spray before revealing her final look, which I have to say is pretty mind-blowing.
