Carter BeautyThrow Shade Duo Contour Stick For Women, Light

Great product

I loved the shade it matched my skin and contoured my nose really well it also covered my dark spots!

I love something that's fast that I can blend out with my fingertip. The double sided stick is a nice thing to have, both light and dark ready to go. I wouldn't call this a contour though, at least for my skin tone(medium neutral). It's a warm shade and I think contour should be a cool tone to mimic shadow. if this came in the shade that was actually suited for contour I'd grab it!

The brown side is nice and creamy and blends well. I used it to contour my nose, especially for halloween and it turned out well. The light side can look a littttle chalky but overall is ok.

I have a small, about 2"x2"x7" pencil case that I use as my daily minimum makeup bag. I try to get everything in pen form or shape for that back in addition to an eyelash curler. This contour stick fits the bill perfectly and the contour blends like a dream. I am a medium beige skin tone, edging towards olive but with neutral undertones. This gives me a very subtle contour at the cheekbones and has been indispensable for keeping my cheeks from looking to round in photos during my pregnancy and post baby extra pounds and swelling. I don't use the highlight color because I don't really need that function but also, unfortunately it isn't nearly as smooth as the contour color. My concealer blends much better. It's a little cakey IMO and I have good, moisturized skin with a solid multi-step k-beauty skincare routine. I'd imagine it would be even more cakey on someone with dry skin.

The product comes wrapped in plastic and sealed but is easy to open. It is double sided with one side the concealer and the other side darker for contour. The product turns to push the concealer and contour up. The tube is a beautiful lavender color with purple font. The tube is so cute and aesthetically pleasing. It stands out amongst my other beauty products. I personally got the light color. I have light/medium skin tone. The concealer is a good light shade for adding dimension to the face. I have not tried to use this to cover up blemishes or under eyes as I use specific products for those. But I use this on my t zone and it lightens up those areas against the contour and adds great dimension. I personally found this product easy to use and it blended out easily and beautifully. My favorite part is the contour side. It’s the perfect shade for me. I love using it for contouring and it glides on smoothly. The actual makeup itself is super soft and lightweight on the skin. I love that this stick is two for one - concealer and contour in both.
