Creme Contour & Highlight Kit

I bought the contour and highlight sticks individually- just the light contour stick and the light shimmery highlight. I love both. The contour is so creamy and blendable and the colour is perfect. If u want a more intense contour, this is not for you. You might then have to layer powder contour on top. But for a more natural look, this is perfect. The highlight stick is amazing too! It gives an intense 'lit from within' glow, and its not sparkly or glittery as well, just glowy and it looks like skin. I dab it in using my finger. Sometimes I use it underneath my powder highlighter and it makes it pop! I definitely would repurchase both.

However, i am a huge fan of creme based blushes as they give you more of a glow from within look as opposed to that powder finish so i thought a creme contour would do the same. It totally does! I Dont understand the mixed reviews on this product because the formula is awesome! I purchased just the Contour and highlighting stick for $12 each (KKW was having a flash sale) and I figured the brush wouldnt be a game changer so i skipped that. Including shipping it was $32. This price point is totally justifiable and I think the results are glowy and gorgeous! The process is simple and if a little contouring/bronzing is all you need you can be ready in 5 minutes. Seriously. I used the darker contour along my forehead, cheek line and jawline. I first tried blending using my beauty blender but that essentially removed the product from my skin. Then I tried using a kabuki style brush and the process and result was perfect. The formula glides on like a dream, is buildable and comes in a lighter and darker shade so you can really amp up or tone down your desired level of contour or bronzes look. Please note, that due to the creamy texture, if you want this product to last you MUST set with a transluscent poweder. Otherwise bye bye bronzed babe in a couple hours. My go to is always an au natural look, and truly these sticks are the only thing you need to get yourself looking picture perfect. The contour stick has 2 shades on each end and the highlight stick has a shimmery end (which I love love love) and an opaque/matte brightener which, if you dont have problematic skin that requires extra attention, works perfectly to brighten the undereyes, forhead, chin, and to mask small imperfections. These little sticks are minimalist and i am already excited to travel with them as my whole make up routine can be condensed in these sleek sticks! Plus no checking the bag because they are solid. The only thing I wish were different: I wish they had skincare benifits. As I move deeper into my 30s I prefer all my makeup to double as skincare. However Ms KKW has not yet entered that realm of industry so I will continue looking for that. But in the meantime, this is my new love.

Finally got my KKW contour sticks.. I ordered the light, medium and dark and I have to say I absolutely love the dark contour stick I. I was a little hesitant because I’m fairly light but the color is PERFECT! I wasn’t too happy with the light and medium. I love the consistency of this product. It blends like a dream. I highly recommend this product.

All I heard about this product was how ~creamy~ it is—and they aren't lying, it is creamy. But the god awful smell makes it unusable. It smells like what I would imagine a box of pencil crayons would smell like after being tucked in under a sweaty ballsack for a day. You can smell the product on your face hours after you've applied it. Though it smells awful, the packaging is REALLY cute. It comes with two double-ended sticks and a sponge/brush duo, all in the same muted peachy flesh toned applicators. Very sleek and minimalist-looking. However, the amount of product given is pretty pathetic… each creme stick is only 2cm long and 0.7cm in diameter. It's also not very securely planted in the stick and you can tell if you press with anything more than a light hand it'll snap right off. I do commend her for making the product available in all skin tones and for choosing pretty packaging… but that's about it. I will NOT be purchasing this again in its current form (and smell).
