Glo Skin Beauty Contour Kit - Fair to Light

A palette with four mineral powders that bring depth and light back to your face: two matte shades for contouring and two with shimmer for highlighting.

Why it works

Contouring is not about color, but about light. A matte, cooler shade visually recedes an area, while a shimmering shade brings it forward. That is the entire principle, which is why both types are included in this palette: you need both to create relief that doesn't look like a drawing.

The powders are triple-milled mineral pigments, talc-free, with vitamin E and green tea extract. That milling makes the difference here: the finer the powder, the further you can blend a shadow without leaving any edges.

For whom

For those who want more definition in their face: clearer cheekbones, a refined nose, a tighter jawline. Also great if your skin has become a bit flatter over the years and its relief has softened.

You can also use the palette more loosely: the matte shades as bronzer, the shimmering ones as eyeshadow or on your décolleté.

How to use it

Work with an angled brush. Apply the dark colors under your cheekbones, along your hairline, on the sides of your nose, and along your jawline. Always blend upwards and outwards, until you no longer see where it begins or ends.

Then, apply the light colors to your forehead, brow bone, the top of your cheekbone, the bridge of your nose, and your chin.

About this kit

Fair to Light is the version for light to light-medium skin. The shadow colors here are intentionally kept soft, because on light skin, a contour that is too dark immediately looks like a smudge.

A tip from me

Contouring is the part where things go wrong most often, and almost always for the same reason: too much product at once. Start with less than you think you need, blend, and only then see if you want more. Taking it away is much harder than adding more.

And always double-check in daylight before you leave the house. Bathroom lighting comes from above and hides exactly the edges that you will see outside.
