I slept way too long on getting the older version of this powder with the quilted design, so I still took a chance on this because I wanted to try my hand at contouring, which is something I...

I really like this one and use it as a blusher (for lack of visible cheekbones, I prefer wearing this in the Korean ‘drunk blush’ style). I have olive skin and the shade works so well for me. I...

As most people here, I bought this as a contour for fair skin (I'm NW10). I don't recommend it because it's too gray on me. It might look good in person but in pictures my contour looks too dark...

This is not a contour shade for any skintone. It's known as a 'contour for fair skintones' but it's straight up gray and looks muddy, ashy and dirty. Blends terribly. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.

Nyx is selling these as "refills" for custom palettes, and I got one of these to try as a contour for pale skin. It is nice. It is a grayish rose, and it is sheer. It is great for a shadowy...

I really like the shade of this. I use it for contouring and it doesn’t look ashy on my NC15-20 skin. I have to say that the texture is very powdery and it lasts around 5 hours on my skin.

Great contour for fair to medium skin tones if you like a really cool tone contour but for me I prefer something a little warmer because my undertone is warm,blends flawlessly and lasts on the skin...

I hated this as a contour shade. To be fair, grey contours don't look good with my coloring. Honestly, all the NYX blushes I've tried have been patchy, and blended terribly on my skin. I've tried...

My friend gave this to me because she didn't like it. Which is surprising because she's way lighter than me. But I think she likes a warmer contour. I usually use the Catrice contour powder which...

Honestly I regret purchasing this. This shade is very cool toned, as they say, but it's cool in the sense that it's super pink. Like really really strong pink undertone. If I go in heavy handedly,...

I use this as a contour powder and it looks pretty good. I don't contour often cause I have textured skin and it sometimes doesn't look good.
