A New Contouring Take on a Classic Clinique Chubby Stick Sculpting Contour, $22 and Highlight, $22
Skill Level: Novice
I am a notorious hoarder of Clinique Chubby Sticks, so I was happy to add these guys to my collection. The contour makeup color is a dark, rich brown that goes on sheer and blends easily. I confess to using my fingertips to apply when in a rush — typically a no-no with contouring, given how precise the finished product needs to be. Hands or not, it's an effective way to add subtle definition. The corresponding Chubby Stick Highlighter is equally forgiving, and gives skin a dewy glow.
