Highlighting is a great complement to contouring. Our longstanding favorite is RMS Living Luminzer, and both Pati and Beau suggested Kevyn Aucoin Celestial Powder in Candlelight. "Don't forget to add some happy color to the apple of the cheek and a bit of sheen to the cheekbones to further enhance the complexion." Opt for a peachy-pink for a natural-looking flush (we like Tarte's Amazonian Clay Blush in Peaceful), then add luminizer just at the top of the cheekbones, down the bridge of the nose, along your cupid's bow, and a hint on the chin for super-fresh skin. In other words? You absolutely need to blend it in. "Use a regular foundation brush or a damp egg sponge and tap it into the contour to make sure there's no demarcation," Pati advises. If you have a lot of sharp lines from applying your color, Pati recommends using a clean cotton pad to remove excess product. The sides of the nose and the hairline are also areas people sometimes choose to contour. The basic places for contouring include the area under the jawline, the sides of the temples, and the hollows of your cheekbones. Use circular motions to sweep color to the areas you want to look smaller or hollow out. When applying the contour itself, build pigment as you go and use your bone structure as a guide. You also might want to check out E.L.F.'s affordable Blush Brush. Another great trick is to adapt a fan brush into your routine - E.L.F Cosmetics has a fantastic, low-priced option that's great for feathering products into the hairline, under the jawline, and around the cheekbone for a precise, airbrushed finish.

"You should buy two, one for contouring and one for highlighting." Just about every makeup artist in the world swears by MAC 217 Blending Brush. "Start with a smaller, fluffy eyeshadow brush so you have more precision," Beau says.

There are many contour palettes out with varying price ranges so it may be better to find one of those instead.Contouring isn't a job for full, fluffy brushes. I’ll be using my LA GIRL concealer to highlight under my eyes and the contour shade from the kit from now on! I’m probably going to buy the light shade pan refill and use this kit whenever I want to go all out. I can imagine for oily skin, that it would glide on like a dream! As it is cream, it blends into my liquid foundation easily as well! I usually mix in some oil or spray my brush with Fix+ first but on dry skin, it can be a bit difficult to work with. But, the cream is a little bit stiff and dry.

The next shade, Expresso, is basically untouched.Īnd the last shade Carob, is what I use to contour my double chins away :))) Overall, I like the colours of the kit and the cream doesn’t sit in my flakey, dry parts of my skin like powder sometimes can. If used heavy handidly, it can come off ashy. It is the lightest of the contour shades and has more of a gery-ish tone to is. Okay so this 4th shade, Chocolate, is what i’ve been using to contour. I’ve been using this as a concealer or around the edges of my face. The third shade, Cinnamon, is similar to my skin shade, a little bit darker if anything. I use this both as a colour corrector and as a blush (it adds a nice orange glow). The second shade, Coral, has more orange than anything. In hindsight, I should’ve used another concealer to do my under eye area and simply used this shade to line my contour. I used this as an under eye highlight as well as below/above any contour lines to really make it pop. I’ve hit pan and it’s only had less than a month of solid use *cries*. The top left shade, Nude, is my most used of it all.

I never understood why these kits came in 3 shades of contour and highlight each but I found that I used most of the shades in this kit. I was afraid, however, that dark may be too dark as it is intended to be used by those with darker skin than mine. These are al set into a thick cardboard base with a hole to be able to pull the pans out to refill them. I bought the “dark” palette as medium was too light. This is a change from ABH’s circular pans in their powder contour kit. There are 3 lighter shades and 3 darker shades to contour with in square pans. The kit comes in 3 varieties: light, medium, dark – to suit a wider range of skin tones.

The cream contour kit is available on the ABH website (but shipping is a killer), on online boutiques like: Beauty Bay (AUD$69.20 + free shipping) or Sephora Sydney (AUD$66.00). Okay so I know we’ve all moved on to strobing, but for those of you who are still trying to get into the hang of contouring (myself included) – here’s a review on the ABH Cream Contour Kit.
