  Face, neck and even ear contouring have become trends in recent times, it's no surprise that make-up artists are taking the method even further.
In a new video for Los Angeles-based online make-up school Ghalichi Glam, make-up artist Jose Martinez puts his skills to use on the face and body of model Lauren York, showing in just 15 seconds how contouring can define abs, cleavage and even shoulders.
A short preview clip of the full tutorial posted to Instagram starts by showing the model in various steps of face contouring, being transformed in a flash.

Before blending in all those expertly-crafted lines, Jose moves onto Lauren's torso.
Wearing just a strip of fabric across her bust, Lauren has two dark line with one light line between them painted onto her neck.
On her chest, Jose creates a series of multi-shaded lines on both sides of Lauren's body, which eventually bend inwards to enhance her cleavage. 
He even creates a pair of target-shaped markings on the tip of each of Lauren's shoulders.

Below the bra, Jose paints a long line down the center of Lauren's stomach with several perpendicular lines across it to outline abdominal muscles.
In the spaces in between, he makes swipes of lighter patches.


Next, with a large make-up brush, he begins to blend all the lines together, from Lauren's stomach up, with the lines on her stomach becoming defined abs.
Steadying himself and holding Lauren's hair back with one hand, Jose then blends the lines across her chest and shoulders.
