Japanese term or phrase: 約策事

Whole phrase is [約策事にとらわれず], appearing in a description of a "modern" makeup look. Any ideas?

約束事 traditional way

Explanation:
I agree with others about "約束事".

Given the limited information, I might put something like "traditional way," "customary manner," or "conventional method," but it is hard to tell without seeing more text surrounding this phrase.
