Coastal Palette(Contouring & Blush)

I bought this palette online after i learned how to contour and highlight. Contouring helps in defining and enhancing the facial features..it sculpts and alters your facial structure making it more symmetrical. It will make your face appears more prominent and refined. With the right brushes & application tool you can contour your face easily.

This contour palette is packaged in a black case holding 6 large pans. The powders are all matte, after all you don't want to use shimmer or pearl powders while contouring. The darker brown is used for contouring. By using angled brushes, sweep lightly across the powder make sure that you tapped off the excess, then start swiping it below the cheekbone(be sure to blend it properly), the jawline and your temples. It gives an illusion of slimmer and more defined face, and you may use it on your chin if you have a long chin...you can also apply the darker shade on either side of the bridge of the nose and apply the highlight on the bridge to have an illusion of longer and sharper nose. The white one is for highlighting, swipe it above your cheeks, brow bone, above the lips and forehead. The cream is color is for concealing and the others are blushes for different skintones.

I was impressed with this palette and it's my new everyday essential. Though the only drawback of this product for me is the contouring shade, it is a bit darker for my skintone so i have to control in applying it so it won't look like some dirt spread below my cheekbone. Tip: Use contouring shade that is 2 shades darker of your skintone...i think the contouring shade is 3-4x darker of my skintone. At first, i had been debating with myself whether or not to spend the money on a product that is used for a technique that i never actually tried before, but it's definetely worth trying! To sum it all up, this is such a great deal! For $19, it comes with a huge pans that will last you for a long time. It's a great investment for every makeup professionals and makeup lovers. It's everything you need in one palette. A versatile palette indeed!
