One of my favorite makeup brands, Tarte has recently released a contour palette. Yay for chiseled cheeks and no football face. It has 6 shades in total, all you need for contouring, highlighting and even a blush. There are two matte yellow and pink highlights for setting under the eye and generally brightening the face. Both powders feel very smooth and have good pigmentation without feeling chalky. The yellow one is my favorite and it really brightens the under eye. You also get a slightly shimmery highlight that can be worn alone or over the top of the other two. It's not my favorite but it's very nice and natural. The blush is a matte neutral pink that will work well on every skin tone and then of course you get two contour colors. One is more warm toned and bronzer like and the other is a lot cooler and darker, but again both matte. I personally like using the warmer shade as more of a bronzer contour hybrid and then a very small amount of the darker shade in the very hollows of my cheeks. The powders blend out well and don't look streaky or fake on the cheeks. One thing I will say is that I hope they create this in another shade for darker skin, anyone from pale to medium dark can probably use this but if you're really dark then I believe it will be to pale which is a shame. The packaging is small and round making it compact and perfect for travel. It's also gold and faux leather making it very swanky indeed. So if you want a palette with everything in and prefer a more natural contoured look like me then this is certainly one to try. Love...
