Best Contour Palette for a Perfect Skin Tone Match
Skill Level: Beginner-Advanced
Finding the right shades to contour and highlight with is notoriously difficult. CoverFX takes the guesswork out of it by breaking their vegan, fragrance-free sets into six different contour palettes based on not only how dark or light your skin is, but also your skin's undertones.
People with advanced contouring skills will appreciate the creamy, pigmented shades that are about the opacity of medium-coverage foundation and can take you from flat to Kardashian (face-wise, anyway) in the span of a few minutes; contouring novices will find that the step-by-step instructions, buildable intensity and foolproof color-matching make contouring infinitely less terrifying to attempt.

The sculpting cream contains a blend of brown and gray hues, so when applied, it looks like the natural shadows of your face, not an obvious contour job. Build up the creamy formula to your desired intensity or set it with a contour powder for extra-defined cheekbones.
