Mollie King has revealed her contouring secrets

For a daytime look, the blonde beauty revealed that she starts off by contouring around her forehead before working on her chin "to give the illusion of a slight, shorter-shaped face". The star also revealed that when it comes to make-up, she prefers to have a "very strong cheekbone".

Mollie's top contouring tips:

Step 1: Sweep the brush under your cheekbone, stopping where the line of your pupil for a healthy look. Soften the edges by moving your brush in an upwards motion.

Step 2: When it comes to highlighting, dab the brush on your hand to get rid of excess powder. Blend across the top of your cheekbones and down the centre of your nose.

Step 3: For bigger and fuller looking lips, dab a bit of powder on your cupid's bow.

Step 4: Make sure to blend! Make sure that all the excess is off your brush and blend the contouring and highlighting powders, working around your face starting with the hairline, down to the jawline.

Step 5: Dab a hint of highlighter under your eyebrows for a more dramatic eye look.
