By strategically applying darker shades to areas such as the hollows of the cheeks, temples, and jawline, and lighter shades to areas like the forehead, bridge of the nose, and under the eyes, contouring can help to sculpt and define the face, creating a more chiseled and structured appearance.

Explanation

Natural daylight has a neutral color temperature, which means it does not have any color bias.

In contrast, artificial lighting can alter the appearance of colors, making them appear more vibrant or dull. Therefore, natural daylight can mute the colors in makeup, making it the preferred lighting for applying and assessing makeup.
