How to slim your nose with concealer – instructions + make-up tips
If you want to make your nose narrower, you need to learn more about contouring. With a little practice you will get great results and all you need is foundation, concealer or highlighter and bronzer. Here are the steps you need to follow!
1. Start by applying foundation as usual all over the face, including the nose.
- Notice: A good foundation is essential for contouring the face and for successful make-up in general. A good primer ensures that the different shades blend well and a good end result.
2. Apply a thin line of concealer two shades lighter than your skin tone to the bridge of your nose. Start at eye level and stop about half an inch from the end of the nose.
- Notice: Do not apply concealer to the tip of your nose as this will only make it look longer and risk making it appear even larger.

3. Apply the darker makeup to the sides of your nose (one line on each side). Use a bronzer, concealer or foundation that is at least one shade (preferably two) darker than your natural skin tone. Start by drawing lines with a thin makeup brush. Start at the eyebrow level and work straight down to the end of the nose. The closer you place the lines to the center of your nose, the thinner it will look. Practice until you find the desired width of your contoured nose.
- Tipp: If you have wide nostrils, apply a little bronzer to those too. You can also apply it to the tip of your nose.
4. Mix, mix, mix! Once you've applied your foundation, concealer, and darker liner, it's time to blend it all together! Take a brush and, using circular movements outwards, blend the contour lines.
- Tipp: Apply a little highlighter to the inner corners of the eyes to open up the eye and make it appear larger. This small step will further harmonize your facial features. It also diverts attention from your nose to your eyes.

What are the best products for contouring
Makeup, even a very simple one, can miraculously transform a face if you know how to apply it correctly and use high-quality products. Having already talked about the first point, we would now like to give you some valuable tips on the second point.
Get the right makeup brushes
They ensure that your makeup looks natural and blends well. To narrow your nose, you need the right brushes. These are they:
- a foundation brush (optional, I apply mine with my fingers)
- a small angled brush for contouring and shaping the nose
- fluffy brush for blending lines
Tipp: It's worth investing in a contouring kit that will provide you with all of these components and ensure optimal color blending.
Light and dark concealer – choose the right shades
To make your nose smaller, you need two concealers - a light one for the inner part and a dark one for the outer lines. The light concealer should be 1-2 shades lighter than your natural skin color or foundation and the dark one should be 1-2 shades darker than your natural skin color or foundation. Adhering to these proportions is essential for a successful result!
- Notice: If you want to apply shimmer highlighter to your nose, do so after you've applied all your other makeup. Sometimes shimmer highlighters can draw unwanted attention to your nose, so use them very carefully or don't use them at all.
Conclusion: Contouring is a makeup technique that can make your nose appear narrower and smaller by playing with highlights. However, to achieve this effect you need the right products in the right shades as well as a correct technique to apply them. In this article we have covered each of these points.
