This was a present for my
birthday and being the lazy person I am, this review is only coming out today. You
never know you need a contouring and blush palette until you have one. But if
you think about it, it makes sense, you have all things in one place.
They describe it as “the ultimate
contouring palette”. Were make-up brands always this modest? However, the
components are presented well:
- ·
“a matte, easy to blend contour powder; - ·
An illuminating highlighter; - ·
Shimmer blush for a healthy bronzed glow or a
brilliant flush of colour.”
They didn’t put much accent on
the highlighter and if they don’t believe in it, why should I? That was my
first thought after reading what they described, but after using it, I realized
the highlighter isn’t bad at all, it’s just more subtle than the trend right
now.
The contour powder is also
subtle, but I like it. It defines the cheekbones, jawline and nose well,
without seeming obvious. The thing that stands out is the powerful blush. While
the other two components are more subtle, the blush is of a bright orange with
a strong pink undertone. And it also has shimmer included so do be careful how
you use the highlighter.
The package is nice, of an
elegant black and it matches my mood perfectly at the moment. The shade is
Light 373 and it has 20 g. Another detail that deserves appreciation is the
mirror. It has a considerable size and it help applying the product nicely.
Pros:
- Instead of having different
little boxes for every product, it is convenient having a palette; - The contour and highlighter
provide a good shaping of the face and natural glow; - The mirror is large.
- Elegant package.
Cons:
- The
blush has too much shimmer for my taste.
Tell us your opinion of this
product if you’ve already tried. Take care and until next time, blend well.
