Of course! It's important to mention that for the last 50-60 years we have celebrated Caucasian features and Caucasian makeup, which can lead to all kinds of insecurities when you don't fit that mold. Now we are celebrating our differences more, so don't feel like you have to contour your nose just because it's 'different.' It's really important that we celebrate diverse features and appearances.

Yes, there is a way to contour your nose with just eye shadow. All you have to do is apply light brown colors to the area where you need thinning and blend, blend, blend. Apply as much as you feel you need; the blending part will ultimately determine how it looks in the end.
