I Tried TikTok’s Revenge Makeup Filter — And the Results Are Snatched

The tricky part about using this filter to do your makeup is the blending and more specifically, what to blend first. I started at the perimeter of my face with the contour and moved inward. I used one brush for all of the blending, but in hindsight, it may be beneficial to use a makeup sponge or to have another, smaller blending brush to blend the under-eyes and nose contour. 

After trying this filter, I can say it totally changed the way I do my makeup. I struggle with contouring my nose, and this filter mapped out the perfect contour and concealer placement for it. However, my issue with this filter is that it looks the same on everyone. When you contour, it’s very important to take your unique facial shape and features into account, and this filter does not. 

The revenge filter’s cheek contour is very reminiscent of the viral supermodel contour hack, and while I love how it looks on others, I don’t think it’s the most flattering choice for my face shape.
