Using this high - gloss matte nose shadow trimming plate is easy. First, clean your face and apply your regular skincare products. Then, use the free high - light brush to pick up the nose shadow powder and gently apply it to the sides of your nose for a more contoured look. When applying, start with a small amount and gradually build up the color to avoid over - application. Keep this product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. After each use, make sure to close the lid tightly to prevent the powder from drying out or getting contaminated. Also, clean the high - light brush regularly for better application results.
