When doing corrective makeup, especially on your nose, always use a subtlte touch when highlighting and shading, as you don't want the shading to be too dark or it will be too obvious.
For shading you have two options - depending on the type of foundation you are using.
Cream foundations: use a shade or two darker in a creamy foundation or concealer, and apply as part of your "base" makeup; this method is easy to blend into your foundation with a sponge, flat rectangular synthetic blending brush, or just use your finger tips. When using cream foundation as corrective makeup, complete all corrections before you powder.
If you are using powder or liquid foundation, or have powdered your cream base, you can use blush as your contouring tool. To apply, sweep color with a contoured cheek brush. Paula Dorf's Angled Cheek Brush will do make this trick easy! Blend edges softly to give a natural shading effect.
Sculpting your nose into a slightly smaller version requires contouring down the sides of your nose. If your nose is narrow at the top and with wider nostrils, sweep color around nostrils and on tip. And if your nose is long, just a touch of contour around the tip.
If you are used to wearing makeup everyday, you may want to balance contouring your nose by contouring your jaw or under your cheek bones to really enhance the shape of your face.
Highlighting along the bridge of your nose, from the top of your nose out in a triangle to your temples - where the light hits your face naturally.
Work with your bone structure, creating shadows, contouring and de-emphasizing with a shade or two darker than your foundation; while highlighting will bring out your best assets. By interweaving the play of light on your face, you will learn to develop your own distinctive beauty look :)
Work with your hairdresser to make sure your hairstyle is enhancing the natural architecture of your facial features.
