  Pros

  The stick format makes it so convenient to store. It fits perfectly in my makeup pouch and stands nicely on my vanity. The application is incredibly smooth, like drawing with a crayon. The way it glides on is truly top-notch! It applies effortlessly without any tugging. I love that it blends beautifully just using your fingers, no brush needed. That's such a plus - no extra tools required. I tried using a puff too, but blending with my hands worked much better.

  Cons

  The contour shade... It's okay for the cheeks, but on the nose, it looks a bit unnatural. Comparing it to my friend's stick contour, this one appears slightly redder. As for the highlighter, it turns you into a cyborg! It's such a stark white that it looks artificial. If you apply the highlighter and touch it with your fingers, it leaves visible fingerprints. There's a subtle shimmer that slightly accentuates texture, so I hardly use it. Update: I started feeling itchy where I applied the highlighter, then the area turned red and developed small bumps. At first, I thought it was due to changing my skincare, but seeing that only the highlighted areas were affected, it's clearly from this product. I've stopped using it and am applying a cica spot treatment to calm my skin. Knowing the highlighter causes these bumps makes me not want to use this product anymore. If you have sensitive skin, it's best to avoid this. If you really want to try it, please do a patch test first.

  Tip

  If I were to buy it again, I'd go for shade 2. The contour in shade 2 seems less red, and the highlighter looks more natural. Update: I won't be buying shade 2 either. I don't want to end up at the dermatologist because of skin bumps!
