Review Summary
The reviewer mentions that she has never used a cream contour product before, and that she was a little bit scared to try it. However, she decided to give it a try and purchased the light-medium shade.
Courtney starts by applying the foundation and primer, and then goes in with the contour end of the stick, applying it to her cheekbones and forehead. She then uses a beauty blender and a Real Techniques brush to blend the contour into her skin. The reviewer notes that when blending, it is important to blend up, as opposed to down, in order to maintain crisp lines.
Next, the she flips the stick over and uses the highlight end to apply the lighter color to her face. She uses a beauty blender to work the product into her skin, and then go in with a smaller brush to work the product into her nose. The reviewer notes that the highlight shade is a little bit heavy under the eyes, and recommends using a lighter hand in that area.
To set the cream, the reviewer uses the NYX Highlight and Contour Palette and the Sculpt powder. She uses a brush to set the contour, focusing on the areas where she applied the cream product.
The reviewer then goes in with a MAC fan brush and the Ice Queen highlight shade from the palette, applying it to the tops of her cheekbones. She finishes off her look with a MAC blush and a bright lipstick.
Overall, Courtney is quite impressed with the NYX Wonder Stick. She notes that the product was easy to blend and that the light-medium shade was a good match for her skin tone. She cautions that the highlight shade can be a bit heavy under the eyes, but she found that using a lighter hand in that area helped. She also notes that the product provided a nice, sharp definition, and that the finished look was quite impressive.
