Now this just could be my technique as this is the first cream contour I’ve used. So far Ive applied twice and I LOVE the cool tone that gives a non-orangey shadow to my cheek and jawline. It is however very subtle. I think it’s build able though. Ive just been blending with my fingers so far but Ill try a heavier application. I’m quite pale, but maybe I just need a darker shade for more of a dramatic contour? Overall I like it, doesnt seem to clog my pores so far which is something I always have to be careful of.
