Contour Gone Wrong

It seems that lately many people love contouring cheeks, I love a contoured cheek, but it needs to be done correctly to sculpt the face. By shaping the cheekbone to help draw attention to the center, leaving an area of light in the center of the face. When a cheek is moulded correctly the apple will look fuller, this will make the face look younger. After all when we are young there is more fullness, when age starts to hit nature takes away that gorgeous rounded look our cheeks have. When doing an old age makeup contour comes in well past the outside corner of the eye and angels towards the mouth. So when doing a beauty makeup, why would anybody do anything that is done in aging makeup.
When a cheek is sculpted properly the color is placed at the base of the cheekbone, fades up, the angle should be towards the bottom of the nose and the most important thing of all it stops by the outside corner of the eye.
