Sometimes we wake up and we find ourselves bloated from all the junk we ate the night before, thus we reach for something that will help "chisel" our face aka contour.

I purchased the Sephora highlight lowlight face contour duo  in the shade Light 01 (there's 4 shades available in the US and I think 2 shades available at Sephora stores in Europe) about 3 months ago and let me tell you that it has worked wonders and has since replaced my NYX contour stick.

This contour duo takes shape as the other contour duos out in the market, on one end you will find the contour shade and the highlight shade on the other, the only difference it has to others is that this stick has an angled end on the contour side which makes it much easier to chisel your cheekbones.



In terms of shade, Light 01 is perfect for pale girls like me---the contour shade is NOT orange on my skintone at all and the highlight shade does not make me look like a disco ball.

Pigmentation wise, the duo is highly pigmented and both ends are very easy to blend but not to the point that it just disappears on the skin. I like using this duo stick with a dense brush (I recommend the BH Cosmetics Brush V12 or Brush V3) to blend it.



If you are new to the contouring game, this is the perfect product for you because it does not come on too strong, meaning you get left with a natural looking chiseled face and you have less of a chance ending up looking like you smeared dirt on your face.

Here's a little how to from Sephora themselves:


If you are unable to get your hands on this product here are a few other contour duos you can purchase from Sephora Philippines: 3CE Contour Duo Stick , Sephora Collection Color & Sculpt Stick both of these are available for purchase in the U.S. as well.
