 Packaging:

 

 Contouring and highlighting depends on your face shape. a  We all have different techniques on application. One tip I should tell you is know your face shape. Well, obviously, I have a rounded  face that's why I usually apply contour powder on the side of my face, temples and a bit on my forehead(since my forehead is wide)and also I apply on the jaw line area and on my double chin. haha! While, I place the highlight on the high points of my face then the bronzer or blush not on the apples of my cheeks but on the side or between the contour and highlight.

BEFORE

AFTER

Overall, I super love this product. Obviously, sa intro pa lang. The contour has a perfect muted brown color that creates a perfect shadow on the face. Sometimes, I also used the bronzer for contouring since it's also matte like the contour powder. While the highlighter has a lovely shimmer, very subtle.

I love that the powder doesn't have a lot of fall outs nor too powdery.

And ofcourse, I love how it slimmed down my face even just a bit. haha!
