DETAILED DESCRIPTION
(18) A method comprises providing a frontal image of a person's face, including a base of the person's nose, tip end of the chin, cheeks, nostrils, eyes including irises, supraorbital margins, ears, and eyebrows. A first distance extends in length from a point at the base of the nose to the tip end of the chin; forming a first guide line on a cheek at a radius substantially equal to the first distance; the first guide line being user to demarcate a first limit for the application of contouring on the cheek.
(19) A second distance is less than the first distance and is at the golden ratio proportion relative to the first distance and forming a second guide line on the cheek at a radius substantially at the golden ratio distance. The second guide line is used to demarcate a second limit for the application of contouring on the cheek; and the area between the two lines is demarcated for the application of contouring.
(20) A facial stencil on the face with a cut out is applied and used to relate to the first and second guide lines, the stencil having at least one of peripheral outline including a straight edge or a straight line for location relative the face. The straight edge or the straight line is for location substantially horizontally or vertically relative to the face when contouring is to be applied to the face, such that the face and the stencil are aligned in a correct vertical sense with each other when the lines for contouring are demarcated. Makeup is applied to the face to represent and shape the contouring.
(21) The method includes creating a third guide line from the center of the lips where the top and bottom lips meet each other, and directed towards the end of the eye. A fourth guide line is created from the end of the lips where the lips engage the face and the line extends wherein the third and fourth lines are substantially parallel.
(22) The area between the third and fourth lines are demarcated for the application of highlighting, and selectively should there be an overlap between the area between the lines this is demarcated for the application of contouring and the area is demarcated for the application of highlighting, and then this area is blended.
(23) A method comprises providing a frontal image of a person's face, including a tip of the person's nose, nostrils, eyes including irises, supraorbital margins, and eyebrows. A starting point for an eyebrow of each eye is determined, a fifth distance for that starting point is ascertained, the fifth distance being determined by determining the golden ratio proportion of the distance between the center of the irises of the two eyes such that the golden ratio point indicates the starting point of the respective eyebrow.
(24) A facial stencil is used on the face to relate to the starting point and the determination of the fifth distance. The stencil has at least one of peripheral outline including a straight edge or a straight line for location relative the face, the straight edge or the straight line being for location substantially horizontally or vertically relative to the face when contouring is to be applied to the face. As such the face and the stencil are aligned in a correct vertical sense with each other when the starting point and the determination of the fifth distance are demarcated. Makeup is applied to the face to represent the starting point.
(25) A method comprises providing a frontal image of a person's face, including a base of the person's nose, tip end of the chin, cheeks, nostrils, eyes including irises, supraorbital margins, ears, and eyebrows. A seventh prime distance extends in length from a point at the center of the lips to a point between at the base of the nose.
(26) The seventh distance extends in length from at the top of the top lip at the center of the lip to a point between at the base of the nose. A position above the top lip is such that the seventh distance is less than the seventh prime distance and being at the golden ratio proportion relative to the seventh prime distance and forming a guide line substantially at the golden ratio distance. The guide line is used to demarcate a limit for the application of contouring above the top lip and directed towards the ends of the lips on either side of the center of the lips. The area below the guide line and the top of the lip is demarcated for the application of contouring.
(27) A facial stencil is used on the face with a cut out to relate to the seventh distance and guide line. The stencil has at least one of peripheral outline including a straight edge or a straight line for location relative the face, the straight edge or the straight line being for location substantially horizontally or vertically relative to the face when contouring is to be applied to the face. The face and the stencil are aligned in a correct vertical sense with each other when the seventh distance and guide line are demarcated.
(28) A method comprises providing a frontal image of a person's face, including a base of the person's nose, tip end of the chin, cheeks, nostrils, eyes including irises, supraorbital margins, ears, and eyebrows.
(29) An eighth distance extends in length from a point at the base of the nose to the tip end of the chin. A ninth distance extends in length from a point at the base of the nose to a point between the eyebrows and above the nose. A tenth distance extends in length from the point between the eyebrows and above the nose to a hair line above the nose. The area in the tenth distance is demarcated for the application of contouring to an extent to render it in appearance conceptually equal to the eighth distance.
(30) A facial stencil applied on the face with a cut out relates the eighth, ninth and tenth distance. The stencil has at least one of peripheral outline including a straight edge or a straight line for location relative the face, the straight edge or the straight line being for location substantially horizontally or vertically relative to the face when contouring is to be applied to the face. The face and the stencil are aligned in a correct vertical sense with each other when the eighth, ninth and tenth distance are demarcated.
(31) A method comprises providing a frontal image of a person's face, including a base of the person's nose, tip end of the chin, cheeks, nostrils, eyes including irises, supraorbital margins, ears, and eyebrows. An iris diameter is measured, and at the tip of the nose a portion for highlighting equal to the iris diameter is formed.

(50) Then, a position above the top lip is determined such that the seventh distance is less than the seventh prime distance. This is at the golden ratio proportion relative to the seventh distance and forming a guide line substantially at the golden ratio distance.
(51) The guide line is used to demarcate a limit for the application of contouring above the top lip and directed towards the ends of the lips on either side of the center of the lips. The area below the guide line and the top of the lip is demarcated for the application of contouring.
(52) In other cases, the guide line is used to demarcate a limit for the application of highlighting above the top lip and directed towards the ends of the lips on either side of the center of the lips. The area below the guide line seven prime below the nose is demarcated for the application of contouring.
