Make up for life: Contouring Palette

Hi everyone!

Today I wanted to share with you my recent contour palette.
As in legit matte contouring palette.
Yeah..OMG!
You just don't know how excited I am to try this out!

Well to begin with,
Sad to say, I don't have that prominent cheekbones.
Like those dream cheekbones we see from Hollywood.
Mine is more like of an Asian I guess? 
Well anyway, that's the purpose of these palette.
 To create and enhance what we gals have.
Exactly like.."stop hatin', just appreciate" ayt?
Next, it was hard to find a matte contouring product.
 I only got these two bronzers to use before, one from LA colors and one from Guerlain.
I was also afraid it would become orange-y on me or muddy. But no, this didn't happen with
my new legit contouring palette as I can customize the shade since I had four colors on it.

So the packaging looks like this on the photo below. Comes in a cutie black box with
a design of princess-y carriage and the brand label. Notice the phrase "Make up for life"---love it! ^_^
And here's the palette per se. Pro-like? Aha!
The case is 12cm x 11cm. Sleek and surprisingly convenient to bring on travelling.


Upon opening the palette you'd see four matte pans with 4.2cm diameter.
I'm pretty sure this would last me a long time before I hit pan.
So there are two highlighters and two contouring powders.


Two highlighters consist of matte white highlighter on left and a little yellowish ivory white on the right. 
Two contouring powders consist of a lighter matte brown and a darker matte brown.

 I just love to use this palette lately!
 Like so-so-so much!
Perfect for daytime or night time use.
 Just apply with light hand during the day okay?
They all blend well also. And oh, I love to use them with my ELF 
or the angled blush brush from Beauty Cosmetics which you can see HERE.
Not that I don't like the brush that it comes with, I'm just more comfortable using brushes with long handles.
It's also multi-functional as I also use this on my lids and on my brows.
If you'd been a reader of my blog for such a long time
 then you'll definitely know how much I love nudes and neutrals haha!
 And oh, here's a past post on how I do contouring and highlighting, please click HERE.
I just exactly do the same technique 'til now.

I'd love to do a video to show you how awesome this is.
 You dunno how much I miss filming and all...

Anyway, over all I love this palette.
 It's pigmented, blendable and stays put all day. 
They're all matte, a bit powdery but not much of a problem IMO. 
Having four shades available, you can actually customize the color to suit your taste.
I love my legit contouring palette!
You may buy your own from BORN PRETTY STORE here.
