sculpt tape™ contour

sculpt tape™ contour is Tarte's contour stick with a cushion tip, built so you dot it straight onto the face and blend — no brush loading, no mess, no guessing how much came out. Tarte likens the effect to a face lift you can carry in a tube; practically, the job it does is carving definition where the face reads flat.

What it actually does

• Creates the look of structure. Tarte's claim is instant definition — higher-reading cheekbones and a face that looks more carved out than it did bare.
• Takes the skill out of placement. The brand calls it goofproof, and the cushion tip is why: you place small dots exactly where you want depth instead of sweeping product broadly and hoping.
• Blends out with its matching brush. Tarte designed a sculpt tape™ brush to diffuse it, which is what turns a dotted line into a believable shadow.
• Keeps the application clean. The applicator is made for precision and no mess, so there's no dipping fingers or over-dispensing.
• Vegan, cruelty-free and dermatologist tested. Those three are Tarte's own formula callouts for this product.

How to use

1. Dot it where you want depth. Work along the hollows under the cheekbones, the outer edges of the forehead, the jaw, and down the sides of the nose if you want it narrower.
2. Keep the dots small. Contour is shadow — less product placed precisely always looks more convincing than a lot of it spread wide.
3. Diffuse with the brush. Blend each area until there's no visible start or stop line, pushing the colour slightly upward toward the hairline on the forehead and jaw.
4. Twist and lock when you're done. Tarte specifically asks for this after every use — it keeps the tip from drying out.
