Make-up artist Bobbi Brown believes contouring is out of fashion.

The 59-year-old, who launched her debut lipstick range in 1991, says she is not a fan of the extreme sculpting beauty trend, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"Contouring is firmly out and, in my view, it should never have been much in because you can't make a face you don't have," Brown told ES magazine.

Brown said she was first inspired to create a make-up line because she wanted to solve problems for women.

However, she says that she used to simply "stare" at the array of cosmetic products in a store and was baffled when she came across 22 taupe eyeshadows because she never knew what to buy.

"I wanted to create simple products that could solve problems for women. I used to stare at rows of stuff and have no idea what to buy, because I felt I did not need 22 taupe eyeshadows," Brown said.
