    Use a bronzer to highlight your cheeks, forehead and chin.

    Contour (very subtly) with a darker powder (just a shade or two)than your regular powder.

    How? Suck in your cheeks and create hollows then with a brush (a contour brush preferably, they're more compact for more definition) take the darker powder and apply it in the hollows towards the ear. Be very subtle or you run the risk of looking like an 80's hair band member. You're aiming at an optical illusion, emphasis on illusion *lol

    Also, if you want to slim down your chin, apply foundation or powder again one or two shades darker than your regular color, apply directly under your bottom jaw, and very subtlety at the jawline to reduce any double-chin issues...

    Subtle and lightly are the key to this, if not, you'll end up drawing even more attention to your problem areas

    Get a bronzer and apply it on your temples and on certain areas below your cheekbone to add definition.

    Try sucking in your cheeks (like a puffer fish) and apply bronzer on the sunken areas outside.

    you can't if you're not fat

    cause that's the thing with me

    I'm not fat and I exercise about 2 hours a day but my face is just built this fat (or wide)

  • Go to the salon and tell them you want a haircut to make your fave look skinnier. It can really make a difference....

    I have a very round face, and I wear my hair clipped up behind my ears, it looks better.

    you just want them to just "look" thinner? Why not make them thinner by eating a little less and losing a few pounds?
